Filter by:There is evidence that citicoline is the only neuroprotectant able to improve the functional status of the patients after an acute ischemic stroke. Citicoline is a neuroprotectant drug against cerebral ischemia, with positive results, both in experimental and clinical trials, in the treatment of acute stroke and head injuries Also, the safety profile of citicoline is good, and there are no associated problems when the drug is used in this kind to patients The aim of this study is to confirm the efficacy and safety of citicoline in patients with moderate-to-severe acute ischemic stroke in Egypt, according to the characteristics of the medical care in this country
With all of the gains that have been achieved with endovascular mechanical thrombectomy revascularization and intravenous thrombolysis logistics, there is still a subgroup of patients with salvageable brain tissue for whom persistent emergent large vessel occlusion (ELVO) portends a catastrophic outcome. Study aims to test the safety and efficacy of emergent microsurgical intervention in acute ischemic stroke patients with symptomatic middle cerebral artery occlusion after failure of mechanical thrombectomy.
Although there is evidence that speech-language therapy may improve speech in language disorders following left hemisphere stroke there is still a lack of evidence for which types of therapy are effective. Furthermore, in Sweden, as well as in several other countries, access to speech-language therapy is limited. The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare outcome from Verb Network Strengthening Treatment (VNeST) provided as In-Clinic therapy (I-CT) or as synchronous telepractice therapy (TP-T).
The objective of the DISTALS Study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Tigertriever 13 Revascularization Device in restoring blood flow in the neurovasculature by removing thrombus in patients presenting within 24 hours of onset with an ischemic stroke with disabling neurological deficits due to a primary distal vessel occlusion (DVO), as compared to medical management.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy, acceptability, and safety of the therapeutic system E-BRAiN for the treatment of stroke-related impairments.
HYBIS project aims to develop an innovative and unique hybrid Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) system. This BCI system is envisioned as a novel tool for targeted reinforcement of sensory motor coupling, specifically dedicated for upper-limb post-stroke rehabilitation.
The study aimed to investigate the effect of exergames using virtual reality with head mounted device on motor recovery of upper extremities in chronic stroke patients.
Post-stroke anxiety (PSA) is a common complication of stroke that leads to dysfunction and reduces the quality of life. PSA exacerbates cognitive dysfunction, delays the recovery process, and increases the disability, mortality, and recurrence rates of stroke. Therefore, early clinical treatments for PSA are important to improve the prognosis and restore the social functions of stroke patients. Integrated rehabilitation has significant advantages in the treatment of PSA. First of all, there is a wide range of rehabilitation methods, such as acupuncture, traditional Chinese medicine, and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, which have been proved to be effective for PSA. However, as the application of integrated rehabilitation becomes more and more widespread, its shortcomings are gradually emerging. For example, most of the treatment protocols used in clinical studies are based on personal experience of the investigators, a unified protocol has not yet been formed, treatment methods are still insufficient in standardization and reproducibility. More studies focus solely on the improvement of a certain symptom by a certain rehabilitation therapy, but ignore the important theoretical basis of the "holistic concept", thus showing the uneven clinical efficacy. For the above existing problems, it is necessary to conduct original and innovative research.
The study aims to evaluate the processes of a pilot single-centre randomised controlled trial (RCT) of carbon-dioxide flushing of transcatheter aortic valves (TAVI-CO2) versus standard saline flushing of valves (TAVI-S) and assess potential neuroprotection through a number of neurological endpoints for planning of a full-sized RCT
The normal value of the new virtual reality (VR)-based hemineglect evaluation system is obtained and its validity is checked by whether there is a difference in the evaluation results between normal people, stroke patients with hemineglect, and stroke patients without hemineglect. And, the usability of the virtual reality-based hemineglect evaluation system is confirmed.
