Mr. Wang Longde addressed the conference. He said, Stroke Committee had started stroke center establishment projects ever since 2013 and up to now, 122 Class III hospitals from over 20 provinces have been selected to be advanced stroke centers (including establishment units), which laid a solid foundation for regional stroke center network establishment.
