Researchers with Brigham and Women’s Hospital and other collaborators have developed a stroke detection blood test that could save lives.
The blood test picks up two biomarkers in the blood — GFAP, or glial fibrillary acidic protein, and D-dimer. One indicates a clot and the other is a marker of brain bleeds. The study found that giving this test within six hours of the start of symptoms came back with 93% specificity and 81% sensitivity for LVO ischemic strokes. An ischemic stroke happens when a blood vessel in the brain becomes blocked or narrowed. An LVO, or large vessel occlusion, ischemic stroke is a subtype of ischemic stroke.
“The study we just published is sort of the prospective clinical validation of the markers and test we developed in the laboratory,” Bernstock said.
