Based on systematic reviews carried out by the international Stroke Unit Trialists' Collaboration, this book discusses the place of the in-patient stroke unit in the present day mangement of stroke patients. The analysis discusses both their methodology and results in terms of effectiveness of the stroke unit - reduction of mortality, benefit to patients, and resource implications. The wider issues are addressed in chapters considering other alternatives and situations where less evidence is available.
