The Recognition of Stroke in the Emergency Room (ROSIER) scale was created by Nor et al in 2005, first published in Lancet Neurology. It was created to aid first-line ER providers in determining which patients were likely experiencing a stroke, thus expediting referral to an acute stroke team. When compared to similar scales, such as the FAST, the ROSIER scale had greater sensitivity in acute stroke recognition.
