Clinical Trial Summary

Prehospital stroke care in specialized ambulances increases thrombolysis rates, reduces alarm-to-treatment times, and improves prehospital triage. Preliminary analyses suggest cost-effectiveness. However, scientific proof of improved functional outcome compared to usual care is still lacking. The objective of this trial is to show improved functional outcomes after deployment of a Stroke Emergency Mobile (STEMO) compared to regular care.


Clinical Trial Description

This is a pragmatic, prospective, multi-center trial with blinded outcome assessment of treatment candidates three months after stroke. Treatment candidates will be defined as patients with final discharge diagnosis of cerebral ischemia, and onset-to-alarm time ≤4 hours, disabling symptoms not resolved at time of ambulance arrival, and able to walk without assistance prior to emergency. These patients will be included if their emergency call from a predefined catchment area in Berlin, Germany, caused a stroke alarm at the dispatch center during STEMO hours (7am-11pm, Monday-Sunday). About 50% of STEMO dispatches will be handled by regular ambulances since STEMO will be already in operation creating the quasi-randomized control group. Because of several organisational issues during the transition of the STEMO service into provisional regular care, the B_PROUD 1.0 evaluation has been defined as implementation study and will be complemented by the B_PROUD 2.0 study. B_PROUD 2.0. recruits patients with index event after May 1st, 2019. B_PROUD uses data from the Berlin - SPecific Acute Treatment in ischemic and hemorrhagIc Stroke with longterm outcome (B-SPATIAL) registry. The B-SPATIAL registry started recruitment in January 2016. ;
