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...
