NCT ID: NCT02992821 Completed - Stroke Clinical Trials

Pocket Sized Carotid Stenosis Screening by Junior Doctors

Start date: December 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Among patients admitted with cerebral ischemia (stroke and transitory ischemic attack (TIA)) it is important to reveal the underlying cause of the disease. In special it is important to reveal if carotid artery stenosis is present as such a finding will directly influence on treatment and follow-up. For the diagnosis of carotid artery stenosis due to atherosclerosis ultrasound examinations is the cornerstone, but computer tomography and magnetic resonance imaging may be better in some cases. Development of high quality pocket-sized ultrasound scanners has allowed for semi quantitatively bed-side assessment of the carotid arteries and the heart. The investigators aim to study the feasibility and reliability of bed-side assessment of the carotid arteries by pocket-sized ultrasound scanners in inexperienced hands and the clinical influence of this examination when performed by experienced users. The investigators hypothesize that a significant proportion of this patient population can be clarified bed-side by junior doctors with no need of further imaging procedures for the assessment of the carotid arteries and the heart.

NCT ID: NCT02207023 Completed - Stroke Clinical Trials

Healthy Lifestyles After Stroke - Stroke Coach

StrokeCoach
Start date: October 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of a lifestyle modification telehealth program on health-related behaviours in community-dwelling individuals living with stroke.
