First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether artificial intelligence can improve how emergency call operators recognize strokes. Researchers will analyze 1,000 emergency calls to see if AI can detect signs of stroke more accurately than current methods. The goal is to help stroke patients get to the hospital faster for treatment.
