This helmet has the ability to help paramedics determine if a patient is having a stroke due to a clot or a bleed. If it is determined to be a clot, clot dissolving treatment can be commenced quickly and the consequential quality of life for the patient may be greatly improved. These helmets are not in Ambulances on the Central Coast yet, so remember, it is very important to get a stroke victim to hospital as soon as symptoms occur!
