Abstract

IntroductionIntravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and mechanical thrombectomy (MT) are well-established, evidence-based, time-critical therapies that reduce morbidity and mortality in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. The exclusion of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is mandatory and has been performed by cerebral imaging to date. Mobile stroke units (MSUs) have been shown to improve functional outcomes by bringing cerebral imaging and IVT directly to the patient, but they have limited coverage. Blood biomarkers clearly distinguishing between AIS, ICH, and stroke mimics (SM) could provide an alternative to cerebral imaging if concentration changes are detectable in the hyperacute phase after stroke with high diagnostic accuracy. In this study, we will take blood samples in a prehospital setting to evaluate potential biomarkers. The study was registered in the German Clinical Trials Register (https://drks.de/search/de) with the identifier DRKS00023063.Methods and analysisWe plan a prospective, observational study involving 300 patients with suspected stroke and symptom onset of ≤4.5 h before the collection of biomarkers. Study participants will be recruited from three sites in Berlin, Germany during MSU deployments. The focus of the study is the collection of blood samples from participants at the prehospital scene and from participants with AIS or ICH at a second-time point. All samples will be analyzed using targeted and untargeted analytical approaches. Study-related information about participants, including medical information and discharge diagnoses from the subsequent treating hospital, will be collected and documented in an electronic case report form (eCRF).DiscussionThis study will evaluate whether a single blood biomarker or a combination of biomarkers can distinguish patients with AIS and ICH from patients with stroke and SM in the early phase after symptom onset in the prehospital setting. In addition, the kinetics of blood biomarkers in AIS and ICH patients will be investigated. Our goal is to evaluate new ways to reliably diagnose stroke in the prehospital setting and thus accelerate the application of evidence-based therapies to stroke patients.
