Prehospital Systolic Blood Pressure is Higher in Acute Stroke Compared with Stroke Mimics
Neurol 86:2146-2153, Gioia, L.C.,et al, 2016
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Prehospital SBP is higher in acute stroke relative to stroke mimics and highest in ICH. Given the stability of BP between initial EMS and ED measurements, it may be reasonable to test the feasibility and safety of prehospital antihypertensive therapy in patients with suspected acute stroke.
