Hyperglycaemia, fever, and swallowing dysfunction are poorly managed in the admission phase of acute stroke, and patient outcomes are compromised. Use of evidence-based guidelines could improve care but have not been effectively implemented. Our study aims to develop and trial an intervention based on multidisciplinary team-building to improve management of fever, hyperglycaemia, and swallowing dysfunction in patients following acute stroke.

Register of clinical trials being undertaken in Australia, New Zealand and elsewhere including trials from the full spectrum of therapeutic areas of pharmaceuticals, surgical procedures, preventive measures, lifestyle, devices, treatment and rehabilitation strategies and complementary therapies. In 2007 the ANZCTR was one of the first three trial registries to be recognized by the World Health Organisation International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (WHO ICTRP) as a Primary Registry. WHO recognizes registries as Primary Registries if they fulfill certain criteria with respect to data content, quality and validity, accessibility, unique identification, technical capacity and administration. The ANZCTR contributes data to the WHO ICTRP, which was developed in 2007. Trials from all ICTRP Primary Registries can be searched at: www.who.int/trialsearch Studies should be registered prospectively, i.e. before the first patient is recruited. The registry records a trial's * objectives * main design features * sample size and recruitment status * treatments under investigation * outcomes being assessed * principal investigator * contact person Key points about the ANZCTR * Publicly owned, managed by a not-for-profit organization * All details of trials registered on the ANZCTR are made publicly available * Registration is voluntary, but if a registrant chooses to register a trial, certain fields are mandatory * Registration is free of charge * Responsibility for registration lies with the Sponsor
