Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to clarify the efficacy, safety and feasibility of early intensive antihypertensive treantment in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients at high risk of hematoma expansion based on artificial intelligence prediction. The main question it aims to answer are: - Can ICH patients at high risk of hematoma expansion based on artificial intelligence prediction benefit from early intensive antihypertensive treatment? - Is early intensive antihypertensive treatment safe to patients at high risk of hematoma expansion based on artificial intelligence prediction. Participants will accept intensive antihypertensive treatment (target systolic blood pressure: 130-140mmHg) at early stage (within 1 hour after randomization) of cerebral hemorrhage and maitain the target blood pressure for 7 days. Researchers will compare standard treatment group (target systolic blood pressure 140-180mmHg after randomization) to see if intensive antihypertensive treatment can improve the outcome of patients with ICH.
The goal of this observational retrospective study is to evaluate artificial intelligences (AI)'s proficiency in identifying and annotating brain bleeds in computed tomography (CT) images. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Whether AIs at present are capable of analyzing and recognizing cerebral traumas in CT images? - If they are, how competent are they and how can humans take advantages of that? CT images were selected during the normal diagnosis and treatment process of patients, and no one needed to undergo any additional procedures connected to the study.
Our understanding of neurosecretory dysfunction after TBI is still insufficient, and the number of patients with neuroendocrine dysfunction caused by craniocerebral trauma may be underestimated, especially the neuroendocrine changes related to HPA axis in the early stage after craniocerebral trauma. Moreover, there are few and fragmentary literature data on the benefits of hormone replacement therapy in patients with neuroendocrine disorders after traumatic brain injury. This requires more studies to further determine the characteristics of pituitary function or hormone disorders in the early stage after traumatic brain injury, which makes it necessary for us to further study the neuroendocrine dysfunction (hormone disorder) in the early stage after craniocerebral injury. To explore the relationship between craniocerebral injury and early hormone disorder by measuring the changes of early hormone levels in patients with TBI is of great significance for the early detection of related complications after craniocerebral injury and the evaluation of the prognosis of patients with craniocerebral injury, and can provide a new diagnosis and treatment plan for early intervention of related complications after TBI.
The proposed research plan seeks to understand the impact of sleep disruption in the Neurological Intensive Care Unit (ICU) on older patients with acute brain injury (ABI). In current practice, the neurocritical care community performs frequent serial neurological examinations ("neurochecks") in an effort to monitor patients for neurological deterioration following brain injury. Many neurocritical patients are older and/or cognitively fragile, and delirium is common. Although ICU delirium is multifaceted, frequent neurochecks may represent a modifiable risk factor if the investigators can better understand the risks and benefits of various neurocheck frequencies. This project will randomize patients with acute spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) to either hourly (Q1) or every-other-hour (Q2) neurochecks and evaluate the impact of neurocheck frequency on delirium. Second, longer-term cognitive outcomes will be investigated in patients with ICH randomized to Q1 versus Q2 neurochecks with the goal of identifying whether hourly neurochecks increase the risk for dementia.
This was a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled clinical trail involved tracheostomized patients with Intracerebral Hemorrhage transferred to the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of 4 hospitals in China between January 2023 to June 2023. The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the clinical effect of Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding vs Nasogastric Tube Feeding in Tracheostomized Patients with Intracerebral Hemorrhage. The main questions it aims to answer are: Compared to Nasogastric Tube Feeding, can the Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding better improve the nutritional status, extubation of tracheostomy tube, pulmonary infection, neurological deficit of Patients with Intracerebral Hemorrhage Compared to Nasogastric Tube Feeding, is the Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding safer. Participants will be divided into two groups randomly, with different nutritional support respectively. .
The goal of this prospective, multicenter, observational, cohort trail is to explore the pattern of brain temperature-brain pressure association in acute brain injury and to clarify its predictive value for prognosis and neurological function 30 days after acute brain injury.
The relation between improvement in results of treating spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH) and the application of statins has been subject to numerous analyses, and yet still remains debatable. The options of treating SICH are limited, therefore neuroprotective effects of statins have become the subject of interest. The purpose of this work is to determine whether: 1. the use of statins in the period prior to the spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage has any impact on the initial neurological condition and the initial radiology 2. continuing the statin treatment commenced before the spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage or including statins into treatment at the acute stage of the disease deteriorates the course of the disease and prognosis during the in-hospital period 3. continuing treatment with statins after the in-hospital treatment impacts functional efficiency and survival rate within the period of up to 90 days from the symptoms of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage occurring. The prospective study included 153 patients with diagnosed SICH who met the criteria for inclusion based on data collected in the course of interviews, neurological examinations, neuroimaging (head scans or magnetic resonance of the head) and laboratory test results, which additionally made it possible to exclude secondary hemorrhage causes. During the first stage of the study, patients were assigned to group I (without statins) and group II (taking statins). During the second stage of the study, having marked the lipid profile within the first three days of stay in hospital and excluded or confirmed dyslipidemia, group I was further divided into subgroups Ia and Ib. Subgroup Ia comprised those who were not diagnosed to have dyslipidemia - they did not receive statins; subgroup Ib comprised those with dyslipidemia who received statins and were recommended to take this medicine for 90 days since they occurrence of SICH. Group II patients continued to take the same dose of statins they had been taking before (atorvastatin or rosuvastatin) or if it had initially been low - increased doses of atorvastatin of up to 20 mg/d and rosuvastatin of up to 10 mg/d. Persons who had never taken that medicine before (subgroup Ib) were administered atorvastatin of 20 mg/day with the recommendation to take it for at least 90 days since the occurrence of SICH symptoms. The analysis pertained to the impact of statins during the acute period of SICH on its in-hospital course. The third stage consisted in analyzing the condition of the patients post hospitalization with the NIHSS Scale, Barthel Scale and modified Rankin Scale, with an examination carried out on the day they were released from hospital and 90 days from the occurrence of the symptoms of the disease. The fourth stage consisted in analyzing the survival rate of the patients.
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a critical disease of public health importance. Inflammatory mechanisms play a significant role in ICH. Thus, immune targets are supposed to be effective in protecting the neurological function of ICH. Fingolimod, a sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor regulator (FTY720), is an effective immunology modulator. It has been widely used in autoimmune disease and has also been testified effective in ICH who received conservative treatment. The present study aims to evaluate the efficiency and safety of fingolimod for ICH with minimal invasive treatment.
The goal of this observational study is to answer three uncertainties about the design of a platform study for adults with stroke due to intracerebral haemorrhage. The main things the investigators aim to find out are: - The acceptability of a platform trial and its comparisons to brain haemorrhage survivors or their carers, and their clinicians. - Estimates of eligibility, willingness to participate, diversity, representativeness, adherence, retention, data completion, and event rates of intermediate and clinical outcomes over time for each comparison. - The most efficient platform trial design considering the findings of this feasibility study. Participants, or their welfare guardian, welfare attorney, or nearest relative will: - Watch a video informing them about the study - Read written information about the study - Provide informed consent - Permit collection of demographic and clinical details - Provide information in interviews at ~3 and ~14 days after the onset of the stroke
A study in the use of the Narcotrend depth of anaesthesia monitor to record a) seizures, and b) monitor a level of sedation referred to as 'burst suppression', in sedated patients in the adult and paediatric intensive care. Studies have shown that patients in coma on the intensive care unit may have subclinical in addition to clinical seizures. Subclinical seizures are seizures that do not show any outward signs and may go undetected. The current gold standard of recording seizures in the intensive care unit is by non-invasive, continuous monitoring of the electrical activity of the brain by electroencephalography (cEEG) using cerebral function analysing monitor (CFAM). This is recorded with simultaneous video recording and is performed by Clinical Neurophysiology departments. There has been a steady increase in demand for this service over recent years. Additionally, CFAM / cEEG is labour intensive and expensive. If trends continue, the proportion of hospitals offering CFAM / cEEG will continue to rise, creating increased demand for specialist staff, of which there are a finite number. Depth of anaesthesia monitors are used by anaesthetists to assess the level of anaesthesia in sedated patients using specialised, automated EEG analysis and are now recommended by NICE (DG6) to tailor anaesthetic dose to individual patients. This study aims to investigate the utility of the Narcotrend depth of anaesthesia monitor to monitor for seizures and burst suppression on the adult and paediatric intensive care unit. These monitors are cheaper and more widely available with the scope to be used at every bed space requiring neuro observation on the intensive care unit. The study aims to recruit all patients who are referred for CFAM / cEEG monitoring at Nottingham University Hospitals (NUH) Trust over a 12 month period. These patients will undergo simultaneous recording using CFAM / cEEG and depth of anaesthesia monitoring.
