Berlin PRehospital Or Usual Delivery of Acute Stroke Care 2.0

Charite University, Berlin, Germany·interventional·Posted Apr 30, 2019·Updated Aug 20, 2024

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating STEMO and Regular care for Stroke. Completed, enrolled 1,050 participants across 1 site.

Detailed 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.

Interventions

STEMOprocedure

STEMO, the intervention, includes prehospital neurological emergency assessment with the option to perform CT and CT-angiography, start specialized treatment at the door-step of the patient's house, including thrombolysis with tissue Plasminogen Activator and blood pressure management (choice of drug at discretion of treating physician), use of telemedicine for image transfer as well as results of point-of-care laboratory, prenotification (e.g. for endovascular treatment), triage and transport.

Regular careprocedure

A regular ambulance, the comparator, not equipped with advanced point-of-care laboratory or CT scanner, without telemedicine and not staffed with a neurologist.
