Rural doctor + telemedicine: a new way to cut stroke risk in seniors?
NCT ID NCT07628283
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a care model led by rural doctors and supported by telemedicine can reduce strokes, heart failure, and heart-related deaths in adults aged 65 and older who are at high risk of stroke in rural China. About 2,500 participants from 39 village clinics will be split into two groups: one receiving the new telemedicine-supported care and the other receiving enhanced usual care. The goal is to see if this approach lowers serious cardiovascular events over three years.
