Spain355 participantsStarted 2023-04-15

Plain-language summary

Stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability and the second most common cause of death worldwide. Currently, the protocols require the imaging techniques at the hospitals to differ ischemic strokes with large vessel occlusion (LVO) from others. In this study, a duplex POC will be used in combination with an APP to identify LVO ischemic strokes in a 800 patients'cohort with pre-hospital and in-hospital blood samples.
