Filter by: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 study is a multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo parallel controlled, investigator-sponsored study that aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of Edaravone Dexborneol treatment in patients with acute ischemic stroke who had received early reperfusion therapy.
In a prospective, quantitative explorative study, the risk of aspiration and penetration when swallowing solid pills (placebo) compared to a crushed placebo pill will be evaluated during a routine Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES). The study design is thus a quasi-experimental study design with repeated measurements in the sense of a pre-posttest. Each patient undergoes a baseline examination (routine procedure) followed by the intervention (administration of three different solid pills and a crushed pill).
A randomized positived-controlled study of Diterpene Ginkgolides Meglumine Injection (DGMI) vs Ginaton in patients with ischemic stroke (IS) was conducted between7/2013 and 4/2014. The study was designed to test efficacy of DGMI for IS. Post hoc analysis of this trial was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of DGMI in elderly (agedā„65 years) IS patients.
Ischemic post-conditioning is a neuroprotective strategy that has been proven to attenuate reperfusion injury in animal models of stroke. The purpose of this proof-of-concept study is to determine the safety and tolerability of ischemic post-conditioning in patients with acute ischemic stroke who are treated with mechanical thrombectomy.
Dapsone is a drug that has been used clinically for several decades due to its anti-infective effect, making it widely available. Its neuroprotective effects have been found through its glutamate receptors antagonistic effect. Their main objective was to study the neuroprotective properties in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and high-risk factors for the development of cerebral vasospasm. Both the placebo and the dapsone used in this clinical trial were provided by the institution's neurochemistry laboratory.
Prognosis of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is scarce, indeed almost half patients die or become severely disable after SAH. Outcome is related to the severity of the initial bleeding and delayed cerebral infarction (DCI). Infection and more precisely pneumonia have been associated with poor outcome in SAH. However, the interaction between the two pathologic events remains unclear. Therefore, we hypothesized that DCI may be associated to pneumonia in SAH patients. Thus the aim of the study is to analyze the association between delayed cerebral infarction and pneumonia in patients with SAH. Retrospective, observational, monocentric cohort study, including patient admitted in Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit or Surgical Intensive Care Unit in the University Hospital of Brest (France) for non-traumatic SAH. Primary outcome is diagnosis of DCI on CT scan or MRI 3 months after SAH. Multivariate analysis is used to identify factors independently associated with DCI. We plan to include between 200 and 250 patients in the analysis.
Cardiac surgery and neurosurgery may decrease cerebral blood flow leading to cerebral dysfunction. Regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) monitor via Near-infrared spectometry (NIRS) is recommended for early detection and correction. The standard site of NIRS sensor is forehead area which is impractical in operation with incision at forehead area. The investigators suggest an alternative sensor site at temporal area. The objective of this study is to assess the correlation of rScO2 measured from sensor attached at forehead vs. temporal area.
This is a retrospective, multi-center, real-world study. The researchers plan to include 10,000 cases of ischemic stroke patients using butylphthalide and 10,000 cases of ischemic stroke patients using Edaravone. The main purpose is to analyze the effectiveness and safety of butylphthalide and establish the drug risk assessment management plan.
This is a multicenter study that will be conducted at approximately 20 centers. BQ 2.0 is a wearable medical device that produces and delivers non-invasive, extremely-low-intensity and low-frequency, frequency-tuned electromagnetic fields in order to stimulate neuronal networks with the aim of reducing disability and promoting neurorecovery. In this study, BQ 2.0 is intended to reduce disability in adult patients with subacute ischemic stroke, with a moderate to severe disability which includes an upper extremity motor impairment. BQ 2.0 will be used for 9 weeks in conjunction with physical and occupational therapy (PT/OT) and periodic supervision (either remote or in person) of a trained site study team member. Treatments may be administered in multiple settings (e.g. acute care hospital (ACH) or inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRF), Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF), home or other outpatient setup). The study will enroll up to 150 adult subjects who will be randomly assigned (1:1 allocation ratio) to either active or sham study intervention using BQ 2.0.
