This study is designed to evaluate the accuracy of saline electrode EEG in the prehospital diagnosis of LVO-a stroke.
This is a multicenter, prospective, observational study,which will screen a total of 1194 patients in the participating centers during the period of June 1, 2024-December 31, 2025, and record single scalp EEG signals with eyes open at rest in the lying position of the patients using a non-invasive EEG acquisition device, and collect clinical data.

Fifty-nine EEG electrodes conforming to international standard points were placed using a saline electrode EEG cap (Gelfree, Prysmian, China), and an accompanying portable multimodal EEG acquisition system (Neurohub, Prysmian, China) was used. EEG data were collected using collect software (Brycon, China).

Saline electrode EEG characteristics: area under the ROC curve for theta/alpha ratio;
Accuracy of theta/alpha ratio of electroencephalographic features for the diagnosis of large vessel occlusion Accuracy of theta/alpha ratio of electroencephalographic features for the diagnosis of anterior large vessel occlusion stroke
Time frame: 24 hours
Other EEG features including relative δ, θ, α power, δ/α ratio, δ+θ/α+β ratio, pdBSI, and WPLI diagnostic accuracy for LVO-a;
ROC curves were plotted for each EEG data feature predicting LVO-a, and sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV were calculated at the optimal cutoff value.
Time frame: 24 hours
Logic and technical feasibility of saline electrode EEG in ambulance for suspected stroke patients by paramedics;
Remove EEG data artifacts and report the percentage of EEG data available for analysis for each patient
Time frame: 24 hours
Development of one or more new algorithms for optimal diagnosis of LVO-a based on EEG data
ROC curves for predicted LVO-a based on this algorithm were plotted and sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV were calculated at the optimal cutoff value.
