Description
Ubong Udoh and co-authors describe a 2026 conference study on signing up for stroke trials before a stroke ever happens. In acute stroke, consent is hard because patients may be unable to decide. Advance consent lets at-risk patients agree ahead of time to join a trial if they later qualify.
Patients at a stroke prevention clinic in Ottawa, Canada, filled in surveys at the start and again one year later. Most who wrote comments backed the idea at both points. Reasons given included helping others, keeping a say in care, trust in the care team, and ease of use. No strong worries came up, and the authors see the approach as workable.
