Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The research is a population-based observational cohort study conducted at Assiut University Hospital's Neuropsychiatry Department. It investigates patterns of prehospital stroke care with a focus on patient and caregiver awareness of stroke symptoms, the type of first medical contact, transport modes, referral pathways, and emergency medical service response. The study aims to understand how these prehospital factors influence stroke outcomes, including timely access to treatment, functional recovery, and mortality rates. Standardized tools, structured questionnaires, EMS records, and hospital medical data will be used to collect comprehensive information.
