Research on stroke care decisions and patient experiences
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study invites people who have recently had a stroke or TIA (mini-stroke) to share their experiences and help improve how stroke care decisions are made. Your input will help doctors and hospitals provide better, more equitable care for all stroke patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a suspected TIA or minor stroke seen in an urgent clinic in the past year, OR you had an ischemic stroke or brain bleed (intracerebral hemorrhage) confirmed on imaging
- Your stroke started within 14 days of hospital admission
- Your stroke was initially treated in Canada
- A stroke or neurology specialist was involved in your hospital care
- You do not have other types of brain bleeding (subarachnoid, subdural, or traumatic) or a blood clot in brain veins

This study compares two ways of caring for stroke patients who aren't candidates for emergency clot-removal surgery. Half will receive care through a virtual stroke unit (telemedicine), and half will receive traditional in-person care at the hospital. The goal is to see if both approaches work equally well for recovery and safety.
This trial tests a telestroke triage process for people with suspected stroke. It aims to help emergency responders quickly connect you with stroke specialists, which could speed up treatment.
This study tests whether following best-practice guidelines for stroke care in regular hospital units (rather than specialized stroke centers) helps patients recover better. Researchers will track how well patients do when they receive standardized stroke care protocols.
This trial looks at what makes it hard for people to get stroke treatment quickly. It uses a phone app to track where you live and what obstacles you face, to help improve care for others in the future.
This study collects information about people who have had a stroke to learn how to improve care and support. It mainly uses existing medical and health records rather than testing a new medicine.
This trial sets up a registry (a secure database) to better track and understand adults who have had an ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke within the last 6 months. Being listed may help researchers learn what care works best for different types and stages of stroke.
