Filter by:For women that experience angina symptoms with underlying vascular spasm as the cause, stress has an aggravating role. Coping with stress is therefore included as an important pillar in dealing with this chronic disease, see the European Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EACPI) consensus document on INOCA. In practice, stress management focuses on informing and identifying the role stress plays in their lives. A potential stress management tool: "Wavy" aims to help users manage stress more consciously through biofeedback. This research focuses on the effectiveness of stress management applications. The hypothesis is that the app will help to avoid the trigger stress as much as possible and thus reduce the burden of disease.
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the influence of chronic RIC on collateral status evaluated by DSA in ischemic stroke patients with LAA etiology.
A transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a momentary neurological dysfunction due to a brief cessation of blood flow to a region of the brain, resulting in typical signs of stroke (hemiplegia, aphasia, dysarthria), but whose clinical symptoms typically last less than an hour, with no visible lesion on imaging. This diagnosis remains difficult and is essentially based on the clinical judgment of the physician. Because a TIA can be a "pre-alarm" for stroke in 20-30% of cases, it needs to be treated appropriately and as early as possible in the emergency department. Stroke rates after untreated TIA are 5% within 48 hours, 10% within one month and 20% within one year. This risk is calculated using the ABCD² score which is based on the patient's risk factors and the clinical manifestations of TIA. Patients with a score ≥ 3 should be hospitalized as soon as possible for a complete medical evaluation. However, this score has not been scientifically validated, and several specialists agree that all TIAs should be evaluated immediately. Preventing stroke is a major public health issue because it is a serious, disabling and sometimes fatal disease. Given the seriousness of the progression from TIA to stroke, the French National Authority for Health has issued a series of management recommendations. However, in practice, these guidelines remain complicated to follow and patients management may vary and be more or less effective. Therefore, the aim of this study is to highlight the differences in how inpatients and outpatients are managed. Following these observations, solutions will be sought to make the care and management of these patients more efficient and more in line with recommendations.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about brain waves during transauricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) in healthy children. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the safety, tolerability, and physiological response of taVNS in children? - Does the electroencephalogram (EEG) change during taVNS? Participants will - undergo a brief titration session where taVNS will be titrated to below perceptual threshold - receive one session of 30 minutes of taVNS - undergo clinical EEG monitoring during taVNS - Continuous cardiorespiratory monitoring via pulse oximetry and blood pressure every 5 minutes - Answer tolerability questions before, during and after 30 minute taVNS session
The study population comprised patients experiencing acute first-ever ischaemic stroke, with diagnostic criteria established in accordance with the International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision. All subjects presented rigorous neuroimaging evidence, including head computed tomography and/or magnetic resonance imaging, which underwent review by two or more experienced neuroradiologists. Adverse outcomes were characterized as compliant endpoint events, encompassing mortality and recurrences. The primary outcome was adverse outcomes and the secondary outcome was recurrence-free survival (RFS).
This study evaluates the efficacy of investigational device named Stroke Onset Time Artificial Intelligence(AI) (Model name:NNS-SOT). Using the investigational device, analyze the image and the onset time of occurrence of acute ischemic stroke lesion on the brain image (4.5 hours or more from the onset of symptoms) and evaluate the efficacy of correctly estimating the onset time.
Shuxuening injection is a multi-target neuroprotective agent, it is expected to play a neuroprotective role on the basis of intravenous thrombolysis therapy. The primary purpose of this multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-parallel controlled trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Shuxuening injection in the treatment with intravenous thrombolysis in patients with ischemic stroke.
Endovascular therapy (EVT) added on best medical management is currently recommended in acute large vascular occlusion (LVO) stroke patients with National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score >5. Thus, a sizeable fraction of patients with a minor stroke that do not undergo cerebrovascular screening may experience an early neurological deterioration (END) due to LVO, possibly leading to poor long-term functional outcome. However, whether these patients may still benefit from a rescue EVT is unknown, especially in a late window (>24 hours). In this study, the investigators assume that best medical management plus EVT might be superior than best medical management alone in a late window for minor stroke patients who have experienced an LVO and END. The primary objective of the study was to establish the safety and efficacy of EVT in a late window for minor stroke patients in the anterior circulation who experienced an LVO and END.
The objective of this study is to investigate the incidence of death and early postoperative complications, identify potential risk factors, and examine the demographic characteristics of patients and epidemiology of cardiovascular procedures. Our hypothesis is that gaining a more comprehensive understanding of the characteristics of patients who undergo cardiac surgery has the potential to improve outcomes for this patient profile. Thus, information was sought regarding the patient characteristics, surgeries performed, anesthesia administered, incidence of intraoperative and postoperative complications, and risk factors associated with complication and mortality in the ICU. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Incidence of mortality or severe postoperative complications that occur within the first 3 postoperative days or until discharge from the ICU. - Risk factors associated with severe complications in patients who undergo cardiac surgery. - Characteristics of patients, anesthesia and surgical procedures performed - Incidence of severe intraoperative complications and moderate postoperative complications - Evaluate the influence of accumulated fluid balance on outcomes, mortality, and length of ICU stay. - Evaluate mortality in the ICU. - Describe the risk factors associated with mortality.
CALCIO is a multicentre, prospective, observational cohort study that will collect real world data on the use of intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) with the Shockwave IVL system to disrupt calcified femoropopliteal and crural lesions in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI). The primary objective of CALCIO is to understand the effectiveness of IVL in promoting wound healing and preventing amputation. The secondary objectives of CALCIO are to evaluate the immediate effectiveness of the treatment in restoring vessel patency as well as its safety and impact on patients' quality of life.
