Clinical Trial Summary

Currently, the main treatment method for Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH) is medication or surgery. However, the effectiveness of medicines is moderate and there are several side effects. In this clinical trial, we would like to enhance the protein levels of brain derived neurotrophic factor in the brain by the transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS). By this technology, the symptoms of ICH could be alleviated and the side effects of medicines might be avoided. Preclinical trials have also shown that low-intensity pulsed ultrasound can alleviate the degree of neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration and significantly improve motor and cognitive deficits after brain injury. The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of TUS for the treatment of patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. The primary safety assessment indexes are brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and brain magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). The secondary safety assessment indexes include weight, vital signs, electrocardiogram, general blood biochemical tests, adverse reaction events, and concurrent drug tracking. The feasibility assessment includes blood specific biomarker expression and neurological function & quality of life scales.
