Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The collected blood will be analysed on the presence of differentiating markers, in this case EV concentrations, that can be related to different causes of stroke. It will be examined whether ischemic strokes can be differentiated from hemorrhagic strokes and stroke mimics. Moreover, in the ischemic stroke group it will be examined whether small vessel occlusions can be discriminated from large-vessel occlusions. | — |
