B_PROUD (Berlin Pre-hospital Or Usual Delivery of stroke care project) is a trial with an accompanying registry investigating the effects of pre-hospital stroke care in STEMO, the Stroke Emergency Mobile, on functional outcome. STEMO care reduces time from alarm to thrombolysis, increases the rate of thrombolysis, especially during the so-called golden hour of stroke, and improves triage of patients with suspected stroke. Final proof of improved outcome is, however, still outstanding, yet required by decision makers throughout the world prior to investing in pre-hospital thrombolysis concepts. Together with the Research Group Audebert, we embrace this challenging and unique opportunity to deliver solid evidence for future guidance.
