Emergency Care BC is proud to congratulate Dr. Jim Christenson on the publication of his groundbreaking research in The Lancet, one of the world’s most prestigious medical journals. His article, titled “Efficacy and safety of intravenous nerinetide initiated by paramedics in the field for acute cerebral ischemia within 3 hours of symptom onset (FRONTIER): a phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study,” presents a revolutionary approach to the treatment and management of cerebral ischemia. 

This important study explores the early administration of nerinetide by paramedics, offering new hope for improving outcomes in acute stroke care. Dr. Christenson’s work is a testament to his dedication to advancing emergency medicine and bringing innovative, life-saving solutions to patients. 

We encourage everyone interested in emergency care and stroke management to read this remarkable study. Congratulations, Dr. Christenson, on this achievement!
