About this trial
The proposed project is a multicentre prospective observational clinical research focused on refining multimodal computer tomography (CT) diagnostics in stroke mimics. The main aim is to accurately identify SM in order to minimize the risk of receiving inappropriate treatment and possible development of complications, which can have a negative impact on the patient´s health. The project includes an analysis of pharmacoeconomic parameters. It will examine saved costs in the case of non-administration of unindicated treatment and it will compare the number of adverse events related to the administration of unindicated treatment in patients diagnosed with SM.
