About

SPECIFIC AIM: The specific aims of this study are to evaluate the long term outcomes of patients previously enrolled in the STRokE DOC ("STRokE DOC Trial (NCT00283868)") telemedicine clinical trial.

AIM 1: Aim 1 is a non- randomized, retrospective, data collection study assessing long term patient outcomes of patients previously enrolled in a telemedicine vs. telephone clinical trial (STRokE DOC Trial ("STRokE DOC Trial (NCT00283868)"); now completed). STRokE DOC-LTO will evaluate, (only for those patients previously enrolled in the original telemedicine vs. telephone clinical research trial), the long term patient outcomes; comparing telemedicine versus telephone-only consultations.
