Filter by:This was a prospective, multicentric, randomized, double blind, parallel, saline controlled Phase II clinical study to compare the safety and efficacy of PMZ-1620 (INN: Sovateltide) therapy along with standard supportive care in patients of acute ischemic stroke.
The study tests the efficacy of a non-invasive device with low intensity electromagnetic field dedicated treatment to enhance the recovery of stroke patients impaired hand motor function
Despite advances in stroke care, women continue to face worse outcomes after stroke than men. This disparity in outcomes may be related to biologic sex-differences that manifest in the development and progression of atherosclerosis. Decades of cyclic changes in the hormonal milieu lead to different metabolic profiles in women. These changes may also explain sex-differences in risk factor profiles of atherogenesis and plaque composition. The investigators' objective is to conduct a cross-sectional MR imaging study of suspected stroke patients to compare the burden and composition of intracranial atherosclerosis and risk factors between men and women. Results from this study are expected to show that sex and sex-specific risk factors should be considered at the outset of stroke evaluation for risk-stratification. In the era of precision medicine, the investigators propose the role of sex should be a starting point in the clinical evaluation of stroke.
There is a debate whether ticagrelor is superior to aspirin in treating patients with ischemic stroke or not, most of the studies examine the effect of both drugs within 24 hours of acute stroke some find that there is no difference between ticagrelor and aspirin, others find that ticagrelor is superior to aspirin. At this study the investigators aim at evaluating the role of loading ticagrelor received within 9 hours of acute ischemic stroke in improving neurological outcome of stroke. And evaluating the risk of hemorrhagic and non- hemorrhagic complications associated with the use of ticagrelor180 ml oral loading dose within 9 hours acute ischemic stroke
Cohort A Randomized Control trial of Ateplase 0.6, 0.75 and 0.9 mg/kg in 78 patients Cohort B single arm 0.9 mg/kg Ateplase in 330 patients Combined Cohort A and B evaluate different of death, intra-cerebral hemorrhage, numberof patient with mRS 0-1 at discharge and 3 months follow up, and other important stroke outcomes
To date, no studies seems to compare conventional gait rehabilitation program with end-effector RAGT in subacute stroke patients by analysing the variations of gait kinematics beyond clinical multi prospective outcomes. The aim of this pilot study is to evaluate the efficacy of end-effector RAGT in subacute stroke patients in terms of clinical outcomes and gait kinematics, comparing them with conventional gait rehabilitation program.
In order to discover dysphagia scales, which shows meaningful predictability of aspiration and functional health status in patients with acute stroke, authors plan to find out more predictable indicators than existing penetration-aspiration scale (PAS) to validate their predictions and their internal and external validity over 6 months following stroke .
The aim of this study is to test the feasibility of a constraint intervention combined with visual-spatial cueing strategy in patients with acute stroke to improve their daily life activities.
SEACOAST 1 is a prospective, randomized, blinded endpoint trial comparing collateral vigor and clinical outcomes, with different forms of GA in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (LVO) undergoing mechanical thrombectomy. The study compares GA with normocarbia (GAN) versus GA with mild hypercarbia (GAH), with a primary outcome of collateral robustness at measured at catheter angiography and clinical efficacy as secondary outcome. It is anticipated that the SEACOAST 1 will be followed by a larger, pivotal trial, SEACOAST 2, with primary clinical endpoints, in which the best method of GA identified in SEACOAST 1 is compared with the alternative strategy of anesthesia care (MAC) with minimal or no sedation. The current study focuses uppn SEACOAST 1, which is to be conducted in University of California, Los Angeles Ronald Reagan Medical Center and Santa Monica Medical Center. All acute stroke patients who arrive to one of these two stroke centers and are deemed eligible for thrombectomy will be considered for the proposed study. Physician-investigators will determine study eligibility. Informed consent to participate in the study will be obtained from legally authorized representatives or competent patients. For non-competent patients without on-scene legally authorize representatives, the consent process will utilize enrollment in emergency circumstances with exemption of informed consent (EFIC).
Trial investigates the benefits and harms of Levodopa /Carbidopa 100/25mg compared to placebo (given in addition to standardized rehabilitation based on the principles of motor learning) and whether there is an association with a patient-relevant enhancement of functional recovery in acute stroke patients. Study participants will be randomized 1:1.
