The Cochrane Stroke Group was originally a review group within The Cochrane Collaboration. The Cochrane Collaboration is an international organisation that aims to help people make well-informed decisions about healthcare. Cochrane systematic reviews bring together all the available evidence relating to a clearly formulated healthcare question for evaluation and synthesis, using predetermined criteria and explicit methods designed to limit bias.
The Cochrane Stroke Group's Editorial Office was based in Edinburgh and was funded by the Chief Scientist Office (part of the Scottish Executive Health Department) from January 1994 to March 2023.
A key aim of the Cochrane Stroke Group was to establish and maintain a truly comprehensive Specialised Register of Trials containing published, unpublished, ongoing and planned trials of interventions in the prevention of stroke, and the acute treatment and rehabilitation of stroke patients. This register of stroke trials provides a significant proportion of the content of the database of information provided by DORIS.
