In December 2013, the “Journal of Visualized Experiments” (JoVE ),published a video report about the latest results of the PHANTOM-S study. The report outlines the clear advantages of the new pre-hospital supply concept for the near-patient acute stroke care by the Stroke Emergency Mobile Unit (STEMO). Highlight of STEMO: The patient can be examined in the emergency vehicle locally. In addition to the diagnostics procedures, therapy can be started in STEMO, after exclusion of the contraindications. The scientific studies show that every quarter of an hour of the saved time between the stroke event and the start of the lysis therapy can lead to a better outcome.
