Summary

The main aim of the NASPP study is to assess the efficacy and safety of the prehospital diagnosis of stroke using the Norwegian stroke ambulance concept. NASPP aims to demonstrate that anesthesiologists trained in pre-hospital critical care may perform acute stroke diagnostics by clinical assessment and CT scan interpretation and integrating these skills in the already existing organizational frame of the Norwegian prehospital EMS system.

NASPP will systematically explore the Norwegian model of prehospital acute stroke diagnostics prior to the implementation of prehospital thrombolytic stroke treatment. NASSP will equip a regular ambulance staffed with a specially trained anesthesiologist and a specialized nurse. NASPP will perform the clinical part of the study in close co-operation with Østfold Hospital, Fredrikstad.
