About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Performances of the Cincinnati Prehospital Stroke Severity Scale Realized During Telephone Call With Emergency Department Physicians to Predict Large-vessel Occlusion

The effectiveness of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) management has improved considerably in recent years with thrombolysis and more recently with mechanical thrombectomy (MT). Currently, mechanical thrombectomy can only be performed in stroke unit with an interventional neuroradiology center by experienced/qualified interventional neuroradiologists. In the Rhone area, only one hospital has the authorization to perform mechanical thrombectomy. Therefore, transferring directly eligible acute ischemic stroke patients for mechanical thrombectomy to this center constitutes an important stake of the triage of suspected acute ischemic stroke patients. Some validated scores for the identification of severe strokes and large vessel occlusion, including the Cincinnati prehospital stroke severity scale (CPSSS), appear to be relevant for pre-hospital use in order to identify patients potentially eligible for mechanical thrombectomy and address them to a stoke unit with interventional radiology center.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • QuestionnaireDiagnostic test

    Tests from Cincinnati prehospital stroke severity scale (CPSSS) will be carried out by the physician at emergency medical services on telephone call with firemen, paramedics or the emergency medical services team for any stroke suspicion that meets the criteria for inclusion. Emergency department physician will have to follow a standardized questionnaire to complete the different items of the score. The score will not be calculated by emergency department physician and will not influence the orientation and management of patients.

    The final diagnosis will be the presence or absence of a large vessel occlusion. This diagnosis will be done on cerebral imaging by a neurologist.

Patients with suspected ischemic strokeThe cohort will be constituted of patients treated for a stroke suspicion after calling emergency medical services of the Rhone and presenting a symptom-onset (the last time the patient was seen without deficit) less than 6 hours.

What is being measured

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

  1. Performances of Cincinnati prehospital stroke severity scale

    The Cincinnati prehospital stroke severity scale is composed of 3 items: 2 points if the patient has a deviation of the gaze, 1 point if the patient is not able to give the date and answer to a simple order such as closing the eyes or clenching the fist and 1 point if the patient presents a hemiplegia. The CPSSS score ranges from 0 to 4, highest value indicating the worst score. It will be considered positive if it is equal to 2 or more.

    Performances will be evaluated in terms of sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stroke, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 12 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 21 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 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?

Performances of Cincinnati prehospital stroke severity scale (time frame: 1 day). 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 21 Nov 2022.
