Grant Activity:
The Stroke Golden Hour: delivering urgent stroke care to all Australians
Purpose:
Poor access of Australian stroke patients, particularly in rural and remote communities, to acute stroke therapy because of lack of brain imaging and expertise. Our program aims to solve this problem by developing lightweight brain scanners, to rapidly deliver pre–hospital stroke care by air and road ambulances to all Australians, underpinned by education and national telehealth platform. By increasing access to acute stroke care, we will gain over 235,000 years of healthy life by 2050 and deliver $15.6 billion in economic benefit including 1,700 new jobs.
