Stroke alarm app trial for faster care
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a smartphone app called Stroke Alarm to see if it helps people who have had a recent stroke, mini-stroke, or have untreated atrial fibrillation get faster care. You may be eligible if you are 50 or older, have a smartphone, and had a relevant event in the last 2 weeks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial compares using a smartphone app to help paramedics assess a suspected stroke versus the usual standard of care. If you're having a stroke and call for help, the app might help speed up the right treatment.
This trial uses a smartwatch to look for hidden atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm) in people who have had a stroke or TIA with no known cause. It could help find the reason for the stroke and guide treatment to prevent another one.
This trial tests whether a mobile technology program can help people manage risk factors like high blood pressure after an ischemic stroke or a “mini-stroke” (TIA). It may help lower future cardiovascular risks by improving day-to-day control of these conditions.
This study tests whether using a smartphone app to check your heart rhythm after a stroke can find hidden atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). If you had a recent stroke or TIA and are not already on blood thinners, you may be able to help doctors detect and prevent future strokes.
This study tests a smartphone app that gives personalized advice to help prevent future strokes. It is for people who recently had an ischemic stroke (blocked blood vessel in the brain) and aims to support their recovery and reduce risk of another stroke.
This trial tests a smartphone-based system that helps people who recently had a stroke or TIA manage their risk factors like high blood pressure or diabetes after leaving the hospital. It's designed to see if this tool can prevent another stroke.
