Data Collection of Patients Admitted to the Stroke Unit

The purpose of this prospective observational study is to create a database in which data will be collected from every patient admitted to the Stroke unit and who has explicitly given his or her informed consent for this data collection. The data that will be collected are part of the standard clinical data. No additional investigations, blood tests or any other tests will be performed. The purpose of this database is to conduct retrospective observational research in the future and will allow the hospital to keep track of some important quality indicators in stroke care.
