Filter by:Acute ischemic stroke is the second leading cause of death and disability, and it is also one of the main reasons for the high cost of health care. The major risk factors for stroke are hypertension, atrial fibrillation, and smoking, which are the main intervention targets for primary stroke prevention. Although these recognized risk factors have been adequately treated, there are also significant differences in stroke incidence and outcome in the population. Sleep apnea is a common complication of acute ischemic stroke, characterized by upper airway obstruction and obstructive sleep apnea. Nowadays, more studies are currently investigating CPAP to promote long-term neurological recovery, improve the ability to perform activities of daily living, and reduce the recurrence of cardiovascular disease in stroke patients. However, 25%-50% of patients with sleep apnea will refuse or be intolerant of ventilation with CPAP. High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy is a revolutionary non-invasive respiratory support option that is widely used in NICU worldwide. This trial aims to investigate the value of different ventilation methods in reducing the rate of pulmonary infections and tracheal intubation in stroke patients. This trial is a prospective randomized cohort study, collecting patients with acute ischemic stroke in the intensive care unit of the Department of Neurology, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from 2022.05.01 to 2023.01.31. Participants who met the inclusion criteria were subjected to polysomnography on the first day of admission, and those diagnosed with sleep apnea according to the diagnostic criteria for sleep apnea were randomly grouped. Participants were given different forms of oxygen therapy, such as usual care therapy (nasal cannula and facemask), nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP), and HFNC oxygen therapy. After one week of observation, the investigators evaluated whether there were differences in the rate of tracheal intubation and pulmonary infection between the groups, as well as the length of hospitalization, hospital costs, and neurological recovery. All enrolled patients were followed up 1 month after discharge.
Hemorrhagic transformation is a common complication of acute ischemic stroke patients . BBB damage is regarded as a major pathophysiological mechanism of hemorrhagic transformation. So, the investigators hypothesis the level of BBB damage biomarker is predictor of intracranial hemorrhage following ischemic stroke.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of balovaptan compared with placebo in participants with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) at risk of developing malignant cerebral edema (MCE)
Fibrinogen replacement could prevent haemorrhagic complications in ischemic stroke patients with secondary post-rtPA hypofibrinogenemia
Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of Cytoflavin®, solution for intravenous administration, (OOO NTFF POLYSAN, Russia) for 10 days, patients with cerebral infarction who receive reperfusion therapy, with the start of treatment within the first 24 hours from the stroke onset, compared to treament with any other neuroprotective drug which may be used in routine clinical practice.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of recombinant human tissue plasminogen kinase derivatives for injection and alteplase in the treatment of patients with acute ischemic stroke within 4.5 hours.
A prospective, randomized comparative study where investigators present results of off pump bidirectional Glenn operation done using either a venoatrial shunt or external shunt to decompress superior vena cava during clamping.
This trial is to investigate the safety and potential therapeutic efficacy of allogeneic administration of umbilical cord-derived MSCs (UC-MSCs) in combination with standard neurological complications after ischemic stroke treatment in Vietnam.
Ischemic stroke is the most common type of stroke, accounting for 60%-80% of all types of strokes, and is one of the leading global causes of death and severe disability. In the risk factors of stroke, carotid atherosclerosis have higher incidence.As the only visible microvessels in vivo, retinal can provides an accurate window into cerebrovascular and systemic vascular conditions. Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and electroretinogram (ERG) can be used to quantitatively analyze the retinal structure and function in patients with ischemic stroke, and find out the valuable parameters. Electroencephalogram(EEG) can collect the electrical activity of cerebral cortex in patients with ischemic stroke and find the correlation between EEG and ERG. Finally, it is of great significance to establish a non-invasive, more objective, convenient and safe risk prediction model for stroke in combination with carotid atherosclerosis, retinal structural and functional parameters and EEG.
The trial is prospective, block randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint (PROBE) design. Patients with acute ischemic stroke, who are eligible for standard intravenous thrombolysis within 4.5 hours of stroke onset will be randomized 1:1:1 to 0.25mg/kg or 0.40mg/kg intravenous tenecteplase or 0.9 mg/kg alteplase before all participants undergo endovascular thrombectomy.
