WASHINGTON, D.C. - When her stroke hit, Edna Wooten somehow stopped
her car. Then her grown daughter ignored her slurred protests and
raced her to the hospital - in time for a drug to dissolve the blood
clot causing her stroke.

Wooten was lucky: Too few stroke sufferers get that clot-busting
treatment, especially black and Hispanic patients who are at highest
risk of having a stroke and also may be particularly hesitant to seek
fast care.

New research is targeting those underserved populations to better
spread the word that "time is brain" - the faster you move the more
brain you save.
