Patient information material
Target number of participants 1882

6. Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL)
7. Triglycerides (TG)
Primary outcome measure(s) Incidence of Deep Venous Thrombosis after acute stroke in China, measured at two weeks (14 ± 3 days) after stroke onset.
Secondary outcome measure(s) Predict model of VTE in acute stroke in China, measured at two weeks (14 ± 3 days) after stroke onset.
Sources of funding 1. Glaxosmithkline (China)
