Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Other interventions - Low-intensity monitoring strategy
Other interventions - Guideline recommended standard monitoring

Placebo Comparator: Guideline recommended standard monitoring - vital signs (HR, BP) and neurological assessment (GCS and NIHSS) 15-30mins x 2 hours, 30mins x 6 hours, 1hourly x 16 hours in usual care monitoring environment

Active Comparator: Low-intensity monitoring strategy - vital signs (HR, BP) and neurological assessment (GCS and/or NIHSS) 15-30mins x 2 hours, 2hourly x 8 hours, 4hourly x 14 hours in a non-ICU ward


Other interventions: Low-intensity monitoring strategy
Post-tpa patients will be monitored in a lower intensity with less vital status and neurological assessment

Other interventions: Guideline recommended standard monitoring
Post-tpa patients will be monitored in the usual care monitoring environment
