The International Stroke Trial (IST) dataset includes data on 19,435 patients and 112 variables. For each randomized patient, data were extracted on the variables assessed at randomization, at the early outcome point, and at 6-months. This dataset provides a source of primary data and is available for public use for the conduct of secondary analyses and in the planning of future trials particularly in older patients and in resource-poor settings given the age distribution of the dataset.

The International Stroke Trial (IST) is one of the largest randomized trials ever conducted on individual patients in acute stroke. The IST dataset includes data on 19 435 patients with acute stroke, with 99% complete follow-up. Over 26.4% patients were aged over 80 years at study entry. Background stroke care was limited and none of the patients received thrombolytic therapy.
This clinical trial was conducted between 1991 and 1996 and a pilot phase between 1991 to and 1993. This study is a large, prospective, randomized controlled trial, with 100% complete baseline data and over 99% complete follow-up data. For each randomized patient, data were extracted on the variables assessed at randomization; the early outcome point was 14-days after randomization or prior discharge, and at 6-months and provided as an analyzable database. The aim of the trial was to establish whether early administration of aspirin, heparin, both or neither influenced the clinical course of an acute ischaemic stroke.
The dataset mentioned plays a crucial role in supporting applications of Generative AI in healthcare by enhancing terminology accuracy and facilitating better communication among medical professionals and patients.
