The selection of cohorts from national and state databases in Australia usually relies on patient diagnoses according to International Classifi cation of Disease (ICD) codes and/or Diagnosis Related Groups (DRGs). The aim of this study was to select a specifi c cohort consisting of stroke and transient ischaemic attack (TIA) episodes, thereby allowing the researcher to examine current process of care using State level hospital admissions datasets.
