Clinical Trial Summary

Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) is the major complication of acute intracerebral haemorrhage (AICH), leads to poor clinical outcomes and increases the financial burden on the medical system. Prophylactic antibiotics do not reduce the mortality rate of SAP. The Tong-Fu-Xing-Shen herbal formula (TFXS) was shown to be effective for the prevention and treatment SAP in a previous clinical trial. To clarify whether TFXS is effective and safe for the treatment of SAP and affects the immunological mechanism of the "brain-gut-lung" pathway of SAP, the investigators designed this study.


Clinical Trial Description

This is a multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. A total of 218 patients will be recruited and randomly assigned to the experimental group (EG) or the control group (CG) in a 1:1 ratio. The treatment course will be 10-12 consecutive days, with a 90±7-day follow-up. The primary outcome is the all-cause mortality rate and the mortality of pneumonia at the 90±7-day follow-up. Secondary outcomes include changes in the gut microbiota; changes in the NIHSS score, BI index, mRS score, and Stroke-Specific Quality of Life scale (SS-QOL) score; and so on. ;
