Filter by:Stroke is the leading cause of premature death and disability, and early recognition and treatment of dysphagia is fundamental to stroke management. Early and full tube feeding in the acute phase of stroke helps to address nutritional problems resulting from dysphagia and impaired consciousness and helps to reduce morbidity and mortality and poor outcomes. Current guidelines for acute stroke management do not address the goal of tube feeding of enteral nutrition for energy and protein. In the treatment of acute stroke, there is a strong global focus on pharmacological thrombolysis or mechanical thrombolysis, with nutritional interventions being a less explored topic. Real-world evidence on large samples, feeding attainment and outcomes, and nutrition in the acute phase of stroke is lacking in China . The aim of this study was to understand the current status of nutritional therapy in stroke hospitalization in neurology and its impact on prognosis nationwide, and to improve the standardized management process of enteral nutrition therapy in the acute phase of stroke.
The primary purpose of this study is to explore the feasibility and safety of normobaric oxygen therapy (NBO) under pre-hospital condition in patients with suspected stroke.
With all of the gains that have been achieved with endovascular mechanical thrombectomy revascularization and intravenous thrombolysis logistics, there is still a subgroup of patients with salvageable brain tissue for whom persistent emergent large vessel occlusion (ELVO) portends a catastrophic outcome. Study aims to test the safety and efficacy of emergent microsurgical intervention in acute ischemic stroke patients with symptomatic middle cerebral artery occlusion after failure of mechanical thrombectomy.
This is a Phase 2/3 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of DM199 in treating participants presenting within 24 hours of Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) onset for whom fibrinolytics and/or a catheter-based procedure, mechanical thrombectomy (MT), are not medically appropriate or available due to constraints of clot location, comorbidity risks, and/or time from estimated onset of stroke. The double-blinded study will be randomized, placebo controlled at up to approximately 100 sites.
The investigators evaluate the vocal cord movement in patients with acute stroke by ultrasound. The occurrence of choking or aspiration pneumonia will be collected in one year after the index stroke.
Branch atheromatous disease (BAD) has been reported to contribute to small-vessel occlusion and is associated with a higher possibility of early neurological deterioration (END). Because the pathology of BAD is due to atherosclerosis, the investigators postulate that early intensive medical treatment with dual antiplatelet therapy(DAPT) and high-intensity statin may prevent END and recurrent stroke. The investigators hypothesise that intensive medical therapy can prevent END in BAD using aspirin, clopidogrel and high-intensity statin.
The main purpose of this trial is to analyse the Effects of Xingnaojing for Mild-to-severe Acute Ischemic Stroke by Metabonomics, proteomics and clinical parameters.
This Early Feasibility Study (EFS) is a multi-center, open-label single-arm study in 10 acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients treated with VitalFlow-IS stimulation within 6 hours of symptom onset. The purpose of the EFS is to evaluate initial clinical safety and device functionality in the clinical workflow setting for treatment of acute ischemic stroke patients that will inform design modifications and/or user interface in preparation for next steps consisting of (1) a full safety/feasibility clinical study and (2) randomized controlled pivotal trial with a surrogate endpoint (expedited Premarket Approval (PMA) pathway).
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) results from the rupture of small vessels damaged by chronic hypertension, amyloid angiopathy or other disease. Currently, ICH has been a devastating type of stroke that lacking effective therapy. Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC), a systematically protective strategy, has been found to have neuroprotective effects by in patients with ischemic stroke. In addition, animal studies show that RIC is safe in ICH model and it could accelerate the absorption of hematoma. In a previous clinical study (RICH-1), RIC have been found to be safe and well-tolerated in patients with ICH. Therefore, the investigators plan to undertake this study to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of RIC in patients with ICH. The investigators hypothesize that treatment with RIC will accelerate the absorption of hematoma and improve patients' functional outcomes. Results of this study can potentially bring into account new means to improve the outcomes of ICH patients.
Currently, dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and clopidogrel (with loading doses) is widely used for patients with acute ischemic stroke. However, immediate, potent and reversible inhibition of platelet aggregation is not possible. Additionally, more than 5% patients have aspirin resistance and more than 15% patients have clopidogrel resistance. Therefore, an intravenously administered GPIIb/IIIa receptor inhibitor (Tirofiban) receptor blocker with fast onset and offset of actions will provide more desired antiplatelet effects in the setting of acute ischemic stroke, especially in patients with high risk of neurological deterioration. This study will measure the anti-platelet effects of Tirofiban in patients with acute ischemic stroke who had high risk of neurological deterioration.
