Filter by:Patients presenting with mild symptoms of acute ischemic stroke are common and account for approximately half of all acute ischemic stroke. About 30% of patients with minor stroke have a 90-day functional disability. Radiologically proven a large vessel occlusion (LVO) in patients with minor stroke is a well-established predictor of poor outcomes, while the poor outcomes following best medical management in patients with minor stroke with the underlying presence of a LVO are mainly driven by the occurrence of early neurological deterioration (END). Considering the well-known strong association between lack of arterial recanalization and END, endovascular therapy (EVT) appears as an attractive option to improve functional outcomes for LVO-related patients with stroke with mild symptoms. Whether EVT is safe and effective in patients with mild stroke with an LVO is currently debated, since these patients were typically excluded from the pivotal EVT trials. The current study aimed to further test the hypothesis that endovascular therapy would be superior to medical management with respect to functional recovery among low NIHSS patients caused by acute large-vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation.
Parallel-group, single-blinded controlled clinical trial. The study involved stroke patients (no more than 3 points on a scale Rankin) dived of the control group and experimental group. Control group received daily sessions of conventional physical therapy. In addition to the same conventional physical therapy treatment, the participants of the experimental group underwent repetitive upper limb Functional Proprioceptive Stimulations (FPS) sessions.
To investigate the therapeutic effect of including virtual reality-based digital content in the upper limb motor function rehabilitation of stroke patients and to develop a treatment method to improve the upper limb motor function of stroke patients in the future.
Stroke volume variation (SVV) is an indicator used to assess the patient's volume status. The FloTrac system (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA) continuously monitors cardiac output (CO) and SVV (SVV-FloTrac) by analyzing the systemic arterial pressure wave. Numerous studies have demonstrated that SVV-FloTrac serves as a reliable indicator of fluid responsiveness. However, its peripheral invasiveness raises concerns about susceptibility to reflecting waves, damping, and vascular tone influences.In contrast, Transthoracic electrical bioimpedance (BioZ.comâ„¢) offers a non-invasive approach for continuously monitoring various hemodynamic variables. In this study, the primary aim was to assess the agreement between simultaneously measured SVV-FloTrac and SVV-BioZ.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of ginkgo biloba extract on cognitive function in acute ischemic stroke.
Up to the researcher knowledge, there is currently limited literature available that thoroughly investigates the biopsychosocial and motor predictors of functional recovery in stroke survivors. Previous studies have only focused on examining these factors individually, without considering their collective impact on functional outcomes. As a result, there is a significant research gap in understanding how these factors interact and influence the recovery process. By integrating the biopsychosocial model with motor predictors, this study will provide a unique and comprehensive perspective on the recovery trajectory of stroke survivors.
This study aims to conduct a multicenter, prospective, randomized clinical trial to scientifically evaluate the safety and efficacy of different perioperative sedation methods during endovascular thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke patients with large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Y-6 sublingual tablets in improving microcirculation dysfunction and reducing thrombo-inflammation in patients who had AIS caused by LVO and received reperfusion therapy. Moreover, we expect to evaluate the safety of using Y-6 sublingual tablet in such study population.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation trial. The objective of this study is evaluating safety and preliminary efficacy of intravenous exosomes derived from human induced pluripotent stem cell (GD-iExo-003) in acute ischemic stroke.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of urinary kallidinogenase treatment in patients with large artery atherosclerotic acute ischemic stroke.
