Filter by:The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of atrial fibrillation (AF) and its treatment in relation to thromboembolic events (stroke, and transient ischemic attacks) and intracranial hemorrhage. Primary Outcome Measures: - Incidence and timing of intracranial complications (stroke,TIA, bleedings) in relation to diagnosis and anticoagulation treatment of AF during the study period; comparison of complications between those with and without anticoagulation treatment according to CHADSVASc score. Secondary Outcome Measures: - The effect of anticoagulation pauses and INR level on stroke and bleeding risk; strokes within 30 days after anticoagulation pause and the prevalence of stroke and intracranila bleeding in relation to INR level < 2, 2-3 and >3. - Trauma as a risk factor for intracranial bleeding: percentage and risk factors for intracranial bleeding with or without trauma. Type of preceding trauma and type of intracranial bleeding. - The time relation between diagnosis of AF and type of intracranial complications: Kaplan Meier analysis of thrombotic (Stroke/TIA) and intracranial bleeding complications after 1st diagnosis of AF in patients with and without anticoagulation - The risk of stroke and intracranial bleeding in relation to CHADSVASc score, HAS-BLED score and anticoagulation/antithrombotic treatment - Prognosis of stroke and intracranial bleeding: 30-day mortality after stroke and intracerebral bleeding in patients with and without anticoagulation - Factors related to underuse of anticoagulation treatment. Data on reasons for not starting or stopping aticoagulation in those with indication of oral anticoagulation - Operations and procedure as risk factor for stroke: Frequency and type of operations performed < 30 days before stroke. Data on length of perioperative pause in anticoagulation and use of bridging therapy and timiing of stroke are collected. - Cardioversions as a risk factor for stroke: Frequency of stroke and TIA < 30 days after cardioversion in relation to use of anticoagulation and CHADSVASc score - The risk of stroke and intracranial bleeding in relation to type of AF (permanent, persistent, paroxysmal) and concomitant carotid disease Estimated Enrollment: 6000 patients.
The registry of acute stroke under new oral anticoagulants (RASUNOA) is a German multicenter, prospective, observational registry performed at about 50 study centers covering about 50.000 acute ischemic strokes and 6000 acute intracranial hemorrhages per year. Study enrollment will be consecutive. The RASUNOA registry study center is the University Medical Center of the Principal Investigator (Heidelberg, Germany). The registry will focus on treatment decisions and concepts in patients being under treatment with a new oral anticoagulant and suffering from acute ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke.
Intracranial Hemorrhage (ICH) is an important morbidity affecting premature infants and can have considerable effects on neurodevelopmental outcome. The investigators showed that preterm infants with severe ICH have decreased cerebral oxygenation several weeks after the hemorrhage. The mechanisms involved in this state of decreased cerebral oxygenation in preterm infants and the effects on cerebral function are unknown. This longitudinal observation study will evaluate physiologic parameters to determine trends in cerebral oxygenation and function in preterm infants with ICH in comparison to infants without ICH.
Primary Objective: To determine the effects of a diabetes specific enteral formula compared to a standard formula supplemented with protein (isocaloric and isonitrogenous) on the mean blood glucose and glycemic variability in a homogenous group of critically ill patients in a neurological ICU. Blood glucose will be recorded every minute using a continuous blood glucose monitor. The primary end points will be the difference between the mean blood glucose levels and the glucose variability between the control and intervention groups for the time period that the patient is in the ICU and receiving tube feeds and for up to a maximum of 14 days. Secondary Objectives: To determine the effects of the diabetes specific versus standard tube feeds on the change in muscle thickness and volume measured by 2-dimensional ultrasound imaging during the patients ICU stay.
The objectives of the trial of a medication-coach program for patients with stroke or transient ischemic attack are to pilot test the study design, the intervention components and the data collection forms and refine them for a larger trial whose goal will be to improve long-term adherence to stroke prevention medications.
This study is a single-arm, open label protocol evaluating the use of Cleviprex to rapidly control hypertension in patients who present with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) or subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and that require ICP monitoring via ventriculostomy (External Ventricular Drain or EVD).
To diagnose bleeding inside the head, children need to have a CT Scan or MRI of their heads. Not all doctors order these though, especially when there is no history of injury or when children don't look too sick. Unfortunately, this means that some children's bleeding doesn't get diagnosed as early as it could. This study wants to find a way to detect bleeding inside the head without using a CT scan or MRI.
The purpose of this dose-ranging pilot study is to compare Recombinant Activated Factor VII, Prothrombin Complex Concentrate and Fresh Frozen Plasma (each starting at low doses with escalation if necessary) for the reversal of warfarin in the setting of acute intracranial hemorrhage.
Strict glycemic control improves mortality and morbidity of patients admitted to the postoperative intensive care unit (ICU). The investigators would like to know if this therapy could improve the long term neurologic and cognitive outcomes of patients treated for acute subarachnoid hemorrhage with either a surgical or intravascular approach.
The main goal of this trial is to investigate whether early administration of human erythropoietin (EPO) in very preterm infants improves neurodevelopmental outcome at 24 months corrected age. This study is designed as randomized, double-masked, placebo controlled multicenter study involving at least 420 patients.
