NIH has created the NIH StrokeNet to conduct small and large clinical trials and research studies to advance acute stroke treatment, stroke prevention, and recovery and rehabilitation following a stroke across the lifespan. This network of 27 regional centers across the U.S., which involves approximately 500 hospitals in the U.S., is designed to serve as the infrastructure and pipeline for exciting new potential treatments for patients with stroke and those at risk for stroke. The StrokeNet trials also collaborate with sites in other countries including Canada, Germany, United Kingdom, Spain, and Japan. In addition, NIH StrokeNet will provide an educational platform for stroke physicians, clinical trial coordinators and stroke researchers.
NINDS established the NIH StrokeNet to facilitate the development, promotion and conduct of high-quality, multi-site clinical trials focused on key interventions in stroke prevention, treatment and recovery. An additional goal of the StrokeNet is to educate future stroke investigators and researchers in stroke prevention, treatment and recovery. The educational core provides webinars focused on stroke, research methodology and professional development. This network currently has a network of 27 regional coordinating centers, involves approximately 500 hospitals across the United States and is designed to serve as the infrastructure and pipeline for new potential treatments for patients with stroke and those at risk of stroke.
