Filter by:This study was designed to explore the influencing factors of spontaneous intraparenchymal hemorrhage's prognosis and develop predictive models for poor prognosis by establishing a cohort of spontaneous intraparenchymal hemorrhage (including both of the supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage and cerebellar hemorrhage), and analyzing the correlation between collected variables and patients' outcomes.
To evaluate the performance of the Viz RECRUIT software in subjects identified as symptomatic of a stroke event as determined by standard of care imaging assessments and interpretation.
PROHIBIT-ICH will randomise participants to compare a strategy of intensive BP treatment (target <120/80 mm Hg) guided by telemetric home monitoring, versus standard primary care (current RCP guideline is 130/80 mm Hg), in 112 adult survivors of hypertension-related ICH. The investigators will establish the feasibility and safety of the intervention, the efficacy of BP reduction, and explore whether it reduces the progression of SVD-related injury on brain MRI.
The study consists of 2 parts: the first part is to conduct a multicenter retrospective analysis of more than 1000 acute ICH patients treated by conservative observation from 33 centers in China to create a predictive model of intracerebral hemorrhage growth based on clinical, blood, genetic, imaging, and pharmacological factors; the second part is to validate the efficacy of the minimally invasive surgery, including stereotactic thrombolysis and endoscopic surgery, in 300 eligible patients with high risk of hemorrhage growth according to the first part results in a prospective multicenter cohort study.
Severe acute brain injury (SABI), including large artery acute ischemic stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage, and severe traumatic brain injury continue to be the leading cause of death and disability in adults in the U.S. Due to concerns for a poor long-term quality of life, withdrawal of mechanical ventilation and supportive medical care with transition to comfort care is the most common cause of death in SABI, but occurs at a highly variable rate (for example in Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) 45-89%). Decision aids (DAs) are shared decision-making tools which have been successfully implemented and validated for many other diseases to assist difficult decision making. The investigators have developed a pilot DA for goals-of-care decisions for surrogates of SABI patients. This was developed through qualitative research using semi-structured interviews in surrogate decision makers of TBI patients and physicians. The investigators now propose to pilot-test a DA for surrogates of SABI patients in a feasibility trial.
Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality around the globe. The most common etiology of nontraumatic spontaneous ICH is hypertensive arteriopathy (HA), while cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is the most prevalent cause of spontaneous lobar ICH in the elderly. Both HA and CAA belong to the family of cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD). cSVD involves pathological processes that affect the arteries, arterioles, capillaries, and veins on the surface and beneath the brain. The resultant changes of cSVD in the brain vasculatures can be detected with neuroimaging, includes cerebral microbleeds, white matter hyperintensities, lacunes, dilated perivascular spaces, and brain atrophy. Investigators of this study have probe into various imaging markers in patients with cSVD. Investigators found that the lacune and cerebral microbleeds location was related to distinct underlying etiology of cSVD. Further, investigators utilized amyloid PET study to directly quantified the cerebral amyloid burden, and demonstrated the correlation between amyloid deposition and deep/superficial microbleeds ratio. The association between cerebellum microbleeds, which is a novel marker for cSVD, and the underlying pathology in patient with spontaneous ICH has been investigated. Investigators also summarized and published the current research of different cSVD imaging markers and its implication on patient care. Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) represents the phenomenon that cerebral vessels dilate or constrict in response to stimuli, which provides insights into the vascular reserve information. The vascular reserve parameter is complementary to steady-state vascular index, such as cerebral perfusion or other neuroimaging markers. Measurement of CVR using advanced MR techniques is an emerging technique with multiple potential clinical utilities, and impaired autoregulation may contribute to the pathogenesis of cSVD. Recently, diminished CVR under visual stimuli has been linked to vascular amyloid deposits and related vascular dysfunction. Clarifying the mechanism of cSVD-related brain injury would be an important step towards identifying candidate treatment approaches. The goal of this study is to understand the features of CVR in patients with cSVD-related spontaneous ICH, for the purpose of establishing new biomarkers in cSVD diagnosis and understanding the underlying pathophysiology.
This observational, retrospective, single-arm, multi-centre cohort study will use real-world data (RWD) to develop real-world evidence (RWE) of the safety and clinical effectiveness of the Pipeline™ Flex Embolization Device with Shield Technology™ in Australian patients that have received a flow diversion device to treat an intracranial aneurysm (IA). The medical records from 500 procedures completed at Gold Coast University Hospital in Queensland (QLD), Prince of Wales Hospital in New South Wales (NSW), and Sir Charles Gardiner Hospital in Western Australia (WA), will be analysed. The study will report the risk and likelihood of stroke (ischaemic and haemorrhagic), delayed neurological adverse events and incomplete aneurysm occlusion within sub-groups of the patient cohort and determine the predictive or confounding factors that influence clinical outcomes under pragmatic or 'real-world' conditions.
A Sub-Study of an investigator initiated and conducted, multicentre, international, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, randomised controlled trial (TRIDENT) to determine the effect of more intensive long-term blood pressure control, provided by a fixed low-dose combination blood pressure lowering pill ("Triple Pill") strategy on top of standard of care, for slowing memory decline as measured by Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (CANTAB), in patients with a history of acute stroke due to intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH).
TRIDENT Main Study: TRIDENT is a multicentre, international, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, randomised controlled trial of a fixed low-dose combination BP-lowering pill ("Triple Pill") strategy on top of standard of care, in patients with a history of acute intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) and systolic blood pressure (SBP) levels defined as 'high normal to borderline high', and on either minimal or no BP-lowering treatment according to current guidelines. MRI Sub-Study Centres capable of specific MRI of the brain sequences will be identified. The patients in the TRIDENT main study who are identified to be eligible for the MRI Sub-Study will undergo MRI scans at baseline (6 weeks to 6 months post-randomisation) and at 36-month follow-up time points. All data collected will be analysed centrally at the Brain and Mind Centre (BMC) in Sydney, Australia.
Centralisation of neonatal intensive care has led to an increase in postnatal inter-hospital transfers within the first 72 hours of life. Studies have shown transported preterm infants have an increased risk of intraventricular haemorrhage compared to inborns. The cause is likely multi-factorial, however, during the transportation process infants are exposed to noxious stimuli (excessive noise, vibration and temperature fluctuations), which may result in microscopic brain injury. However, there is a paucity of evidence to evaluate the effect of noise and vibration exposure during transportation. In this study the investigators aim to quantify the level of vibration and noise as experienced by a preterm infant during inter-hospital transportation in ground ambulance in the United Kingdom Secondary aims of the study are to: i) measure the physiological and biochemical changes that occur as a result of ambulance transportation (ii) quantify microscopic brain injury through measurement of urinary S100B and other biomarkers (iii) evaluate the development of intraventricular haemorrhage on cranial ultrasound iv) monitor vibration and sound exposure, using a prototype measuring system, during neonatal transport using both a manikin and a small cohort of neonatal patients. v) evaluate vibration and sound exposure levels using an updated transportation system modified to reduce effects.
