We are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience. To do so, we are actively working with consultants to update the website by increasing its accessibility and usability by persons who use assistive technologies
such as automated tools, keyboard-only navigation, and screen readers.
We are working to have the website conform to the relevant standards of the Section 508 Web Accessibility Standards developed by the United States Access Board, as
well as the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1. These standards and guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities. We believe that conformance with these standards and
guidelines will help make the website more user friendly for all people.
Our efforts are ongoing. While we strive to have the website adhere to these guidelines and standards, it is not always possible to do so in all areas of the website.
If, at any time, you have specific questions or concerns about the accessibility of any particular webpage, please contact WebsiteAccess@tenethealth.com so that we may be of assistance.
The physician researchers at Harper University Hospital and Wayne State University are leading research into stroke prevention and treatment of acute stroke. Currently between 8 and 10 clinical trials are underway, including studies of:
Various blood-thinning regimens
Optimum blood pressure levels in stroke survivors
A new blood thinner for people with atrial fibrillation, a heart-rhythm disorder which can cause blood clots and stroke
Symptoms and misdiagnosis among young stroke patients (under 50 years old)
A new, minimally invasive treatment to prevent stroke in patients with carotid artery disease
Stents used to relieve blockage of blood vessels in the skull
Patients at Harper University Hospital often volunteer to participate in clinical trials like these. All patients benefit from the latest, research-based knowledge in stroke prevention and therapy.
