Trial Summary
Trial Overview
Inclusion Criteria
This is a 6 year, Phase I, Clinical Research Protocol to study the feasibility of using a
telemedicine system for performing research in a remote hospital system.

The UCSD Telemedicine system is a digital video camera system, which can transfer video and
audio images from a clinic or emergency room to a remote place where a physician can review
images in real time (as they happen). The system uses site independent software to access
the camera system from multiple locations. This research study will determine if it is
feasible to obtain informed consent for various types of research trials (hypothetical,
non-invasive, invasive trails) via telemedicine. Inpatient assessments on participants to
complete clinical research case report forms by telemedicine will also by performed.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Male/Female, age 18 years or older

- Clinical neurological focal deficits consistent with stroke

- Time of onset 3-24 hours and with stable neurological deficit

- Signed Informed Consent

Exclusion Criteria:

- Deficits known to be due to non-stroke etiology

- Time of onset less than 3 hours

- Patients unable to give consent
