Filter by:This is an initial Phase1/2 dose-finding, randomized, multi-center study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of NCS-01 in patients with acute ischemic stroke. All patients will be randomized within 48 hours of stroke onset. This study will be conducted in 2 stages.
This is a Phase III clinical trial to compare the efficacy of two dosages of a new infant rehabilitation protocol - I-ACQUIRE - to usual and customary forms of infant rehabilitation in infants who experienced Perinatal Arterial Stroke (PAS).
This study aims to build a database for patients with acute ischemic stroke who receive endovascular therapy and analyze the current situation, effectiveness, safety and cost-effectiveness of endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke in China.
Post-stroke depression (PSD) is one of the most common complications after stroke, with a high prevalence. PSD can affect prognosis and rehabilitation of stroke, increase risks of mortality and suicide, and escalate the economic burden on individuals and society. Studies have shown that transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) can also be used to treat depression, insomnia and anxiety. So far, this stimulator has been approved by FDA. However, there have not been any reports on the use of tACS in the treatment of depression and PSD in China. In this trial, the efficacy and safety of the tACS will be assessed with the rigor methodology manner.
The proposed study will investigate the clinical use of the ISCDX test that may differentiate between diverse stroke etiologies as listed below: Aim 1: Differentiate between cardioembolic and large artery atherosclerotic ischemic strokes, when hemorrhagic stroke is ruled out, as defined by TOAST classification of subtypes of acute ischemic stroke. Aim 2: In cases of ischemic strokes of unknown or "cryptogenic" etiology, determine the ability of biomarker blood tests to predict etiology between cardioembolic and large artery atherosclerotic.
The purpose of this clinical investigation is to determine the safety and feasibility of detecting acoustic signals related to blood supply in subjects with acute large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke by using the SONAS® device.
Proprioceptive deficits are common following stroke, yet current evidence-based approaches for rehabilitating proprioception are limited. Robotic rehabilitation and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) are two promising technologies/techniques that can potentially be used to treat these deficits. This study's purpose is to determine whether robotic rehabilitation, specifically targeted at proprioception, has the capacity to improve proprioception in a chronic stroke population. Furthermore, it is interested in whether tDCS is able to enhance any potential improvements in proprioception as a result of robotic rehabilitation. It is hypothesized that a robotic rehabilitation will enhance proprioception in a chronic stroke population beyond standard of care rehabilitation. It is also hypothesized that individuals receiving a combination of robotic rehabilitation and tDCS will show greater proprioceptive improvements than those just receiving robotic rehabilitation.
Acute stroke patient will undergo one month (20 sessions) of physical therapy and anodal tDCS. Patients will undergo functional outcomes measured at 48h post onset, 7,14,21,28 days, 3 and 6 months and one year post onset.
Vascular brain infarction (VBI) occurs in 67% of patients undergoing TEVAR. Overt stroke occurs in 13% of these patients and 88% of patients suffer from neurocognitive impairment. Cerebral air embolisation during the stent-graft deployment phase of TEVAR may be a cause of VBI. Standard treatment to de-air stent-grafts is through the use of a saline flush. This study aims to investigate whether carbon-dioxide or saline is the better fluid to de-air TEVAR stent-grafts prior to insertion in to the patient and compare VBI rate in the carbon-dioxide group and saline group.
The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy of the SaeboVR rehabilitation system for improving functional outcomes related to upper extremity motor recovery in stroke survivors. The specific objectives are: 1. To explore the participants' level of performance and satisfaction with their performance in self-identified problem areas of daily functioning following a 4-week intervention using the SaeboVR rehabilitation system. 2. To evaluate the efficacy of an intervention protocol that emphasizes task-specific and goal-oriented virtual practice, reflecting the participants' self-identified goal priorities.
