Filter by:This is a registry study on a multidimensional prediction model for rupture risk of unruptured intracranial aneurysms in China.
This is a registry study of the natural course of unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIA). In addition, the investigators will analyze the risk factors for the rupture of the UIA and their joint effect. The investigators aim to use research data to create a China national database of UIA.
In neurosurgical anesthesia, propofol based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) is frequently used due to brain relaxation and less effect on electrophysiologic monitoring. Response to propofol can vary between individuals and be associated with clinical factors including age and weight, and genetic polymorphism. Because the importance of rapid recovery in neurosurgery with long operation time is emphasized recently, the choice and dose adjustment of anesthetics should be determined according to clinical and genetic factors. Recently, researches about genetic variations have been performed with single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). The aim of this study is to find SNPs associated with propofol recovery and response through genome-wide association study (GWAS) in Korean adult population undergoing propofol based TIVA for clipping of unruptured cerebral aneurysm.
Purpose of this study is to assess the hypothesis that a strategy with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) 100 mg/day, intensive blood pressure treatment (targeted systolic blood pressure below 120 mmHg), and a blood pressure measuring device reduces the risk of aneurysm rupture or growth compared with standard care (i.e. no ASA, blood pressure management according to standard blood pressure management, no blood pressure measuring device)
In patients at risk of increased intracranial pressure (ICP), ICP measurements require invasive transducers, usually with insertion of a catheter into the cranium, or through a spinal tap. These invasive modalities involve risks and pain and they can be done only in specialized care units, with a high associated cost. A novel method for detecting changes in ICP has developed recently. The auditory hair cells emit sounds and electric signals in response to sound, which can be easily detected and measured non-invasively with the help of a microphone probe placed in the external ear canal or regular electrodes. Indeed, the cochlear aqueduct connects the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) spaces to the inner ear in such a way that ICP and inner-ear fluid pressure equalize within seconds. The evaluation of intracranial hypertension by increased ICP (invasive) is not systematically used after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. It is then detected by using routine clinical signs of hydrocephalus or another disorder of cerebrospinal liquid flow, in combination with a standard imaging method (TDM). The measurement of noninvasive ICP could allow earlier detection of hydrocephalus or another disorder of cerebrospinal liquid flow, and evaluate whether the increase in ICP precedes patient clinical worsening and / or imaging.
The pupilometer determines the alteration of the pupil diameter after a defined light stimulus. In this study data is collected from pupilometer measurements of patients with an acute cerebral disease. The measurements take place during daily neurological routine examinations. The values are compared to outcomes resulting from pupilometer measurements done on patients having not an acute cerebral disease (e.g. cerebral aneurysm without symptoms). The study aims to establish the not invasive method of pupillometry for detecting neurological degradations early.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Artisse™ Intrasaccular Device in the treatment of unruptured and ruptured wide-neck bifurcating intracranial aneurysms.

Cerebral aneurysm is one of the main diseases that seriously affect human health. The most important treatment method is surgical clipping and endovascular embolization. Not complete occlusion of the aneurysm is a main risk of recurrence and rebleeding after treatment. This study is focused on the 3D model of cerebral aneurysms and preoperative evaluation. Combined with the 3D model, the neurosurgeon can complete the discussion of preoperative prediction of aneurysms and recognize the adjacent bone, blood vessels, aneurysm directions and so on. In addition, the model can also be used to the young doctor's training, and the patient and their families can be convenient and intuitive understanding of the disease, so as to form a good communication between doctors and patients.
Intracranial artery disease has been more detected with development of HR-MR. HR-MR can depict vascular wall directly and give us more information beyond the pre-existing imaging modalities such as digital subtraction angiography, magnetic resonance angiography, computed tomography angiography. Hence, HR-MR is considered to become promising imaging modality for intracranial artery disease and many studies have been published recently. However, there was not enough to differentiate various intracranial artery disease such as atherosclerosis, dissection, moyamoya disease, vasculitis, reversible vasoconstriction syndrome. In real clinical arena, intracranial artery disease is too difficult to diagnose and distinguish among the disease. Of the disease, usefulness of HR-MR has been consistently published in the detection and diagnosis of intracranial artery dissection recently. HR-MR seems to be the most important and reliable imaging method in intracranial artery dissection as of now. Therefore, intracranial artery dissection is necessary to study using HR-MR. Intracranial artery dissection is dynamic vascular pathology. The geometric change is the most common among intracranial artery disease. However, there was no report about the geometric change in HR-MR. The investigators acquired retrospective data about the natural course of intracranial artery dissection in HR-MR and are preparing for publishing an article. However, the data is not prospective and not intraindividual comparison. Therefore, reliability is not enough to convince the natural course. If the investigators got prospective and intraindividual data, definite natural course of intracranial artery dissection could be acquired and would be helpful to diagnose the dissection and differentiate from other vascular pathologies. The prospective longitudinal information from this study could guide us as the important map on the confusing HR-MR findings. The protocols for imaging are as follows: initial (optional), 1 month, 3 month, 6 month (optional), 12 month.
