Filter by: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.
The purpose of the present study is to explore the efficacy of small doses of oral glibenclamide on brain edema after acute primary intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and improving the prognosis of patients.
Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study to evaluate the administration of CN-105 in patients with supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Patients will be evaluated for eligibility within 12 hours of symptom onset. Eligible participants (30 active participants and 30 control participants) will receive CN-105 or placebo administered intravenously (IV) for a 30-minute infusion every 6 hours for up to a maximum of 3 days (13 doses) or until discharge (if earlier than 3 days). Participants will be monitored daily throughout the Treatment phase of the study (up to a maximum of 5 days) and will receive standard-of-care treatment for the duration of the study. Additional protocol assessments will be required during the Treatment phase as outlined in Section 7.5. After discharge from the hospital, participants will enter a 3-month Follow-up phase, with a clinic visit at 30 days and a follow-up telephone interview with telephone-validated mRS at 90 days after first dose of study agent.
Fall with head injury is becoming an epidemic challenge especially with the ageing population. Contributing factors for mortality and poor functional outcome included development of cerebral contusion and delayed traumatic intracerebral haematoma. There is a higher prevalence especially with the increasing use of antiplatelets and anticoagulants. Non-invasive monitoring such as near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is sensitive in detecting intracranial changes. The role and efficacy of this non-invasive method has not been specifically established in patients with head injury as an initial non-operative monitoring. This is particular important in the setting of a general ward in which nursing staff is limited. The advantages of these noninvasive monitoring might have a role of continuous neuro-monitoring. They can also potentially reduce the number of unnecessary repeated CT Brain in the context of limited radiology staff and resources. Timely detection and treatment of this condition accordingly is crucial. Potential options of non-invasive monitoring such as nearinfrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is to be investigated. The aim of this study is to determine the sensitivity and specificity of NIRS as a non-invasive monitoring in detecting delayed intracranial injuries in comparison with the Gold Standard CT Brain. Study design is Prospective sensitivity and specificity study of Near Infra-red Spectroscopy (NIRS) as a non-invasive monitoring in detecting delayed intracranial injuries in comparison with the Gold Standard CT Brain in Hong Kong Chinese. Consecutive patients admitted to Prince of Wales Hospital, Hong Kong would be recruited. Outcome measures including correlation of non-invasive monitoring with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to CT Brain findings including any increase in haematoma size, cerebral edema or mass effect. Secondary outcome including 30 days mortality and functional outcome at 3 months.
Background: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) accounts for 15-20% of all strokes in Western Europe, and contributes profoundly to mortality and disability. Thirty day case fatality is 40% and of those surviving, only few gain independence. Except for stroke unit care and early blood pressure lowering there is currently no treatment of proven benefit. Important predictors of poor outcome are increasing age, decreasing Glasgow Coma Scale score, increasing ICH volume, presence of intraventricular hemorrhage and deep or infratentorial location. In addition, secondary injury due to development of edema and inflammatory response, contribute to disability and death. Surgical treatment, mostly comprising craniotomy, has so far not been proven effective. In the largest trials STICH and STICH II, the median time to treatment was more than 24 hours, which may be an important explanation for the lack of treatment effect. The investigators hypothesize that early, minimally-invasive, endoscopy-guided surgery improves outcome in patients with spontaneous supratentorial ICH. Objective: to study safety, feasibility and technical effectiveness of minimally-invasive endoscopy guided surgery for treatment of spontaneous supratentorial ICH and to estimate the potential effect on outcome. Study design: a multicenter, prospective intervention study (phase II) with a telephonic follow up interview at 90 and 180 days.The pilot study serves as a prelude to a randomized phase III trial in which the investigators aim to assess whether this intervention improves functional outcome at 90 and 180 days. Study population: patients with spontaneous supratentorial ICH of 18 years and older. Forty patients in three participating centers (Radboudumc, Erasmus MC and AMC) will undergo minimally-invasive endoscopy-guided surgery. Three-hundred-and-sixty patients undergoing standard medical treatment in one of 7 other participating centers, will be included as a control group. Intervention: minimally-invasive endoscopy-guided surgery within 8 hours of symptom onset, in addition to standard medical management. Primary study outcomes: safety (death within 24 hours, 7-day procedure related complications, 7-day mortality, 30-day mortality) and technical effectiveness (proportional volume reduction, proportion of participants with volume reduction > 60 and >80%, and proportion with remaining clot volume <15mL). Secondary outcomes: modified Rankin Scale score at 90 and 180 days after ICH (functional outcome).
Information regarding the likely progress of post-stroke symptoms is vitally important to stroke survivors to allow them to plan for the future and to adjust to life after stroke. Moreover, the prevalence of morbidity secondary to stroke is of central importance to Health Professionals to understand the prognosis of the disease in the patients under their care. Additionally, it will also allow commissioners of care, planners and third sector organisations to adapt to and answer the needs of a post-stroke population. Currently, the data collected by national audit programmes are concentrated on what can be termed 'process or process of care' data. The utility of these data are in the ability to audit the care received by stroke survivors on stroke units against evidenced standards for care, thus ensuring evidence based practice. Nevertheless, process of care is only one form of measuring stroke unit care and the audit programmes collect some limited functional status data, data relating to risk-factor co-morbidities and treatment received data. Therefore, the scope of this study is to build on the minimum data set currently collected and to collect post-stroke data in domains not currently collected. The International Consortium for Health Outcomes Measurement (ICHOM) takes important steps to collect data outside of process of care data such as a Patient Reported outcome data in their minimum outcome data set for stroke [currently under review].. Nevertheless, the ICHOM doesn't currently advocate the specific collection of data relating to cognitive impairment or emotional problems secondary to stroke. It is in these important aspects that this study will augment the data set currently advocated by ICHOM to collect data in the areas of cognitive impairment and emotional problems secondary to stroke. Therefore, the aim of this study is to quantify the prevalence of morbidity at six months post-stroke.
Cattle encephalon glycoside and ignotin Cattle encephalon glycoside and ignotin (CEGI) injection (drug approval H22025046; Jilin Sihuan Pharmaceutical Co. LTD., Jilin, People's Republic of China) is a compound preparation of muscle extract from healthy rabbits and cattle brain gangliosides, which was approved by the Chinese Food and Drug Administration in 2011 and was commonly used as neuroprotectant in the treatment of central and peripheral nerve injuries in China. To evaluate the safety and efficacy of CEGI in treatment of Hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage, we designed this study.
The objective of the rFVIIa for Acute Hemorrhagic Stroke Administered at Earliest Time (FASTEST) Trial is to establish the first treatment for acute spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) within a time window and subgroup of patients that is most likely to benefit. The central hypothesis is that rFVIIa, administered within 120 minutes from stroke onset with an identified subgroup of patients most likely to benefit, will improve outcomes at 180 days as measured by the Modified Rankin Score (mRS) and decrease ongoing bleeding as compared to standard therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the antipyretic effect of bromocriptine in critically-ill patients with acute neurologic injury and fever from infectious and non-infectious etiologies.
Our primary aim is to investigate whether remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) as an adjunctive treatment can improve long-term recovery in acute stroke patients as an adjunct to standard treatment.
