ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is focused on improving how quickly patients with acute ischemic stroke (a type of stroke caused by a blockage in blood flow to the brain) receive treatment. The researchers are developing an intelligent navigation applet that will be available on the popular Ali Pay app, which many people in China already use. This app is designed to help patients recognize the signs of a stroke, learn about the condition, and find the best hospitals for treatment. The goal is to reduce the time it takes for patients to get to the hospital after experiencing a stroke, ultimately improving their chances of recovery.

To participate in this trial, individuals must be diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke and should be seeking reperfusion therapy (a treatment to restore blood flow) within 24 hours of their symptoms starting. However, patients who are taken to the hospital by emergency medical services or who have strokes while already in the hospital are not eligible. Although the trial is not yet recruiting participants, those involved can expect to use the app to navigate their care more efficiently and potentially see better outcomes from their treatment.
