Interim analysis of ambulance logistics and timings in patients recruited into the Rapid intervention with Glyceryl trinitrate in Hypertensive stroke Trial-2 (RIGHT-2) (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Dixon, M., Scutt, P., Appleton, J. P., Spaight, R., Johnson, R., Siriwardena, A. N., & Bath, P. M. (2018). Interim analysis of ambulance logistics and timings in patients recruited into the Rapid intervention with Glyceryl trinitrate in Hypertensive stroke Trial-2 (RIGHT-2).

Introduction: Stroke is a severe condition with high morbidity and mortality. Despite treatment effects in acute stroke being predominantly time dependent (e.g. thrombolysis and thrombectomy), proven treatments are hospital based and require prior br...

Baseline characteristics of the 1149 patients recruited into the Rapid Intervention with Glyceryl trinitrate in Hypertensive stroke Trial-2 (RIGHT-2) randomized controlled trial (2018)
Journal Article
Bath, P. M., Scutt, P., Appleton, J. P., Dixon, M., Woodhouse, L. J., Wardlaw, J. M., & Sprigg, N. (2018). Baseline characteristics of the 1149 patients recruited into the Rapid Intervention with Glyceryl trinitrate in Hypertensive stroke Trial-2 (RIGHT-2) randomized controlled trial. International Journal of Stroke, 14(3), 298-305. https://doi.org/10.1177/1747493018816451

Background: High blood pressure (BP) is common in acute stroke and associated with a worse functional outcome. Glyceryl trinitrate (GTN), a nitric oxide donor, lowers BP in acute stroke and may improve outcome. Aims: RIGHT-2 tested the feasibility o...

Consent procedures and relationship with outcome in the Rapid Intervention with Glyceryl trinitrate in Hypertensive stroke Trial-2 (RIGHT-2) (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Scutt, P., Dixon, M., Appleton, J. P., Howard, H., Havard, D., Woodhouse, L. J., & Bath, P. M. (2018). Consent procedures and relationship with outcome in the Rapid Intervention with Glyceryl trinitrate in Hypertensive stroke Trial-2 (RIGHT-2).

Background: Obtaining consent in emergency situations is challenging. Proxy consent allows patients to be recruited when they lack capacity, a common scenario in stroke patients. The rapid intervention with glyceryl trinitrate in hypertensive stroke...

Rapid Intervention with Glyceryl trinitrate in Hypertensive stroke Trial-2 (RIGHT-2): safety and efficacy of transdermal glyceryl trinitrate, a nitric oxide donor, and of the feasibility of a multicentre ambulance-based stroke trial (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Dixon, M., Appleton, J. P., Scutt, P., England, T., Havard, D., Howard, H., …Bath, P. M. (2018). Rapid Intervention with Glyceryl trinitrate in Hypertensive stroke Trial-2 (RIGHT-2): safety and efficacy of transdermal glyceryl trinitrate, a nitric oxide donor, and of the feasibility of a multicentre ambulance-based stroke trial.

Statistical analysis plan for the ‘Rapid Intervention with Glyceryl trinitrate in Hypertensive stroke Trial-2 (RIGHT-2)’ (2018)
Journal Article
Scutt, P., Appleton, J. P., Dixon, M., Woodhouse, L. J., Sprigg, N., Wardlaw, J. M., …Bath, P. M. (2018). Statistical analysis plan for the ‘Rapid Intervention with Glyceryl trinitrate in Hypertensive stroke Trial-2 (RIGHT-2)’. European Stroke Journal, 3(2), 193-196. https://doi.org/10.1177/2396987318756696

Rationale: Glyceryl trinitrate, a nitric oxide donor, is a candidate treatment for acute stroke; it lowers blood pressure, does not alter cerebral blood flow or platelet function and is neuroprotective in experimental stroke. The ongoing rapid interv... Read More about Statistical analysis plan for the ‘Rapid Intervention with Glyceryl trinitrate in Hypertensive stroke Trial-2 (RIGHT-2)’.
