Filter by:The objective of the study is to assess brain tissue perfusion by contrast-enhanced ultrasound perfusion imaging (PerCEUS) in acute brain injuries. More precisely, it aims : - to evaluate the heterogeneity of brain perfusion and thus diagnose brain tissue hypoperfusion with contrast-enhanced ultrasound. - to correlate contrast-enhanced ultrasound with perfusion measurements by usual multimodal monitoring.
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating disease with high early mortality, unfavorable neurological outcomes, and high cost of care. To date, the role of DTI-guided minimally invasive hematoma evacuation in ICH is still uncertain. The investigators will conduct a multicenter randomized controlled trial, as well as a concurrent prospective observational study including all ICH patients who decline participation in the trial and will therefore receive minimally invasive hematoma evacuation or best medical therapy and consent to be followed up. All participants will be followed up at the same time using the same outcomes measures. The primary outcome will be collected by a blinded assessor.
Introduction Remote cerebral hemorrhage following reperfusion treatment in ischemic stroke is rare (1.3-3.7% of all treated strokes) and is associated with worse functional and vital prognosis. Multicenter observational studies suggest that amyloid angiopathy may be one of the main risk factors for remote hemorrhage. Currently, it is unknown what happens to those patients with remote hemorrhage beyond 3 months of follow-up in terms of risk/benefit balance when receiving antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy, as well as from a cognitive point of view. Considering an analogy with amyloid angiopathy, the hypothesis is that those patients with remote hemorrhage have a higher risk of intracranial hemorrhage during follow-up when receiving stroke secondary prevention, and will also present greater cognitive deterioration during long-term follow-up. Main Objectives - To explore the frequency and risk factors for intracranial hemorrhage during follow-up of patients with remote cerebral hemorrhage. - To explore the frequency and progression of cognitive deterioration during follow-up in patients with remote cerebral hemorrhage. Methodology Observational, prospective, multicenter registry with a population-based case-control design of consecutive patients with remote hemorrhage following reperfusion therapy in acute ischemic stroke. Inclusion criteria: Diagnosis of ischemic stroke with age greater than or equal to 18 years who has remote cerebral hemorrhage after receiving reperfusion therapy in the acute phase. Exclusion criteria: Lack of basic data (age, sex, neuroimaging data) or telephone for follow-up. The cases will be those patients with remote hemorrhage. For each case included, 4 consecutive controls will be included (2 with local parenchymal hemorrhagic transformation and 2 without hemorrhagic transformation). The data will be filled out within the (Codi Ictus de CATalunya) CICAT registry form (currently mandatory in all stroke centers in Catalonia) to which additional variables will be added. Telephone follow-up will be conducted at 3, 12, and 24 months. Main study variable: - Any type of spontaneous or traumatic intracranial hemorrhage during a 24-month follow-up. - Score on the "Short Informant Questionnaire" scale (a validated 17-question questionnaire to be conducted over the phone, where a score higher than 57 points indicates cognitive impairment). Expected sample size during a 2-year recruitment period: 105-300 patients (considering the participating centers to date). Additional information. This study is endorsed by the "Pla Director de la Malaltia Vascular Cerebral" in Catalonia. Participating Centers. Participation offers have been sent to the 28 hospitals in the hospital network of Catalonia with the capacity to administer intravenous fibrinolysis. Positive responses have been received from 13 of them so far. In case the project is accepted by the (Comité Ético de Investigación Clínica) CEIC Sant Pau, the centers that have not responded will be contacted again to obtain their participation.
Existing measures to prevent intraventricular hemorrhage in preterm infants include preventing premature delivery, pre-natal administration of corticosteroid, active treatment of chorioamnionitis, and improvement of postnatal resuscitation and transfer process. Many overseas studies show that nursing care can reduce the risk of intraventricular hemorrhage and death, but there is no such study in Taiwan. Objective: to explore the effect of bundle nursing care on prevention of IVH in premature infants.
This multicenter, pragmatic randomized, open-label clinical trial aims to assess whether Tranexamic Acid improves outcomes in adult patients with spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage. The participants presenting within 4.5 hours of the onset of symptoms of stroke with intracerebral haemorrhage confirmed on Computed Tomography (CT Scan) will be randomized into two groups in a 1:1 ratio using a central online randomization. The treatment arm will consist of giving intravenously 2 grams of Tranexamic Acid in 100 ml 0.9% sodium chloride administered over 45 minutes. Control arm patients will receive standard of care treatment as per the institutional protocol. In both arms, intensive systolic blood pressure reduction to less than 140 mmHg will be done using antihypertensive medications, which has to be achieved within one hour and will be maintained over next seven days. The choice of antihypertensive drug will depend on the clinician's preference. Both groups will have a repeat CT scan after 24 hours to check for any increase in the haematoma volume. Any deterioration in the neurological status will warrant urgent brain imaging. On day 7, the patient will be assessed for their NIHSS score and mRS score. On day 90, quality of life and the functional outcome will be assessed.
This randomized controlled trial investigates the efficacy and safety of mobile health intervention in managing hypertension after Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH).
The goal of this observational study is to analyze the validity of the intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) Score and a new modified ICH score for the prediction of 12-month functional outcome in patients with primary ICH. Participants who were admitted to NTUH rehabilitation ward will be followed up to 12 months after the onset of ICH. The follow-up will be conducted by phone interviews.
The goal of this observational study is to compare the differences in the features of cerebral multifrequency EIT(cMFEIT) images between healthy subjects and patients with brain diseases and to explore the possibility of applying multifrequency EIT to intracranial abnormality detection.16 healthy volunteers and 8 patients with brain diseases were recruited as experimental subjects, and the cerebral EIT data of 9 frequencies in the range of 21 kHz - 100 kHz of all subjects were acquired with an EH-300 MFEIT system.
This is a nested cohort study in the PRO-SVD cohort. Small vessel disease is a chronic disease and is thought to progress over time. MRI is the gold standard to diagnose small vessel disease, but data on MRI-visible disease progression are scarce. Complications of small vessel disease as well as location pattern, distribution and severity of these MRI small vessel disease markers differ according to the underlying phenotype. The primary aim of this project is to investigate individual small vessel disease burden progression detected by MRI in survivors or intracerebral hemorrhage.
To verify if there is an association between advanced multimodal brain monitoring parameters in the first 48h and fist 7 days of admission with intrahospital and six-months functional outcome, even when controlled to other factors that may influence the outcome. Secondary Goals: To describe multimodal neuromonitoring parameters variation in the first seven days of ICH and identify any trends.
