Summary
This study, called PLINTH, is a feasibility trial for adults who had a stroke from a brain hemorrhage. Researchers want to know if patients and doctors would accept a future platform trial, and how to design it to be inclusive and efficient. About 169 participants will watch an informational video, give consent, and be interviewed at 3 and 14 days after their stroke. No new treatments are being tested here.
