About this study

Official title: Study of the Performance of Acute Stroke Management in the Rhône Area After Implementation of a Multi-action Program

Acute stroke management represents a true medical emergency that requires prompt diagnosis and urgent treatment. However, only a small percentage of patients access to thrombolysis on time. Various actions have been implemented since 2006 in the Rhone area as part of research projects and of the 2010-2014 national stroke action plan: training of health professionals involved in the stroke management, increase of public awareness through sensibilization campaigns, implementation of telemedicine and increase of the number of hospital beds dedicated to stroke (stroke units beds).

The main objective of the STROKE 69 study is to assess the impact of these actions on intra-hospital acute stroke management times in the Rhône area. The secondary objectives are to assess the impact of these actions on the rate and place of thrombolysis, the rate of post- thrombolysis hemorrhage, the rate of thrombectomies, mortality in the acute phase, at 3 and 12 months, the level of disability at 3 and 12 months, pre-hospital times, the number of calls to SAMU centre 15 (French mobile emergency medical services, equivalent to 911) and management channels.

The investigator will perform a prospective cohort study between 06/11/2015 and 06/06/2016 and data will be compared to data collected in a previous cohorts study, the AVC-69 cohort study (Porthault Chatard et al, Int J Stroke. 2012 Oct;7(7):E13), between 06/11/2006 and 06/06/2007, before the implementation of the actions in the Rhône area.

The cohort will be constituted of all consecutive patients treated for a stroke suspicion by the Rhône SAMU centre 15, or in one of the emergency unit or stroke unit of the Rhône area, and presenting a symptom-onset (the last time the patient was seen without deficit) less than 24 hours.

After collecting data in the acute phase, patients with a confirmed diagnosis of stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) will be followed for 12 months after their inclusion by telephone calls at 3 and 12 months to assess the level of disability and mortality.

AVC 69 study allowed us to include 1306 patients between 2006 to 2007, the investigator plan to include at least 1300 patients in the STROKE 69 cohort with approximately 1000 confirmed strokes or TIAs.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Intra -hospital management times

    • Admission - brain imaging time
    • Admission- arrival at stroke unit time
    • Brain imaging time - arrival at stroke unit time
    • Admission period - thrombolysis time (door-to-needle time)

    Measured: 24h

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Assessment of the overall impact of actions on patients management

    Proportion of patients thrombolysed, proportion of cerebral hemorrhage after thrombolysis, proportion of patients treated by thrombectomy

    Measured: 24h

  2. Assessment of the impact of public campaigns

    Pre-hospital time: symptoms onset- hospital admission time (admission in stroke unit or emergency unit), time from symptom onset to call to SAMU centre 15

    Measured: 24h

  3. Assessment of the impact of the increase of stroke unit beds

    Proportion of patients managed in stroke unit at acute phase

    Measured: 48h

  4. Assessment of the impact of training of SAMU centre 15 professionals and firefighters on stroke detection

    Proportion of patients managed by fast-track (direct admission in stroke unit after call to SAMU centre 15), proportion of patients managed by the SAMU centre 15

    Measured: 24h

  5. Assessment of the impact of the implementation of telemedicine

    Proportion of patients thrombolysed in emergency unit via telemedicine / stroke unit / critical care unit )

    Measured: 24h

  6. Assessment of the impact of the actions on the prognosis of patients

    Proportion of patients who died during the initial hospitalization, proportion of patients who died at 3 and 12 months, proportion of patients with disabilities at 3 and 12 months evaluated by the Modified Rankin Scale and by the Barthel Index among patients with a confirmed diagnosis of stroke or TIA

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stroke, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 7 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Feb 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Intra -hospital management times (time frame: 24h). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Feb 2018.
