Summary

This study compares a new 'virtual stroke unit' approach to standard stroke unit care for people with a stroke who are not eligible for a clot removal procedure. The virtual unit uses video calls and monitoring equipment to let a specialist team at a main hospital help guide care for patients at smaller hospitals. The goal is to see if this remote care is as effective as being treated directly in a specialized stroke unit, focusing on whether patients are alive and independent three months later.
