The Minnesota Stroke Registry (MSR) Program provides an essential framework for improving stroke care across the state. Established from 2001 onwards, it has evolved through pilot phases, national expansions, and ongoing quality improvement initiatives. With key milestones including the integration of tools like the Minnesota Stroke Registry Tool and the Go With the Guidelines (GWTG) Patient Management Tool, the MSR aims to enhance patient outcomes through evidence-based practices, education, and comprehensive data analysis. The program faces challenges but remains committed to delivering high-quality care to all stroke patients.
