Summary
This study aims to develop a quick blood test to tell whether a stroke is caused by bleeding or a clot, which is critical for giving the right treatment fast. Researchers will test a protein called GFAP in 527 adults with suspected stroke arriving at the hospital within 3 hours of symptoms. The goal is to make pre-hospital diagnosis possible, so treatments like blood pressure lowering can start sooner for those who need it.
