  Abstract The researchers repeat the 1996 audit of stroke care in Auckland Hospital to assess changes in stroke management since the introduction of a mobile stroke team. The audit prospectively recorded information for all patients with stroke from 1 June to 30 September 2001. They describe the work of the stroke team physician and the specialist stroke nurse and allied health staff who coordinate the multidisciplinary care of patients. Variables examined include time to arrival and medical assessment, investigations, acute management, inpatient rehabilitation, and stroke outcome. The researchers then describe recent developments in stroke care and the impact of the stroke service on patient management.
