Neuralert Stroke Monitor Trial
Neuralert Technologies LLC
Summary
The Neuralert monitoring system, a non-invasive device worn on each wrist, is designed to provide continuous monitoring and expedited recognition of stroke by identifying asymmetry in the extremities, facilitating patient treatment and improving outcomes. This study is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Neuralert Monitor. This study aims to show that the device produces fewer than 2 false alarms per patient per day on average, and that the device detects stroke with a sensitivity significantly greater than a device producing 2 random alerts per day.
