Filter by:Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) can occur due to traumatic and spontaneous events.1 The incidence of non-traumatic, spontaneous ICH is approximately 40,000 to 67,000 cases per year while the incidence of traumatic brain injury (TBI) is nearly 1.7 million annually
The investigators are suggtesting that lower goals of systolic blood pressure after intravenous thrombolysis may reduce the risk of hemorrhagic complications and improve functional outcomes after acute ischemic stroke.
The NSR-GENE study is a longitudinal cohort study of approximately 300 parent-child trios from the Neonatal Seizure Registry and participating site outpatient clinics that aims to evaluate whether and how genes alter the risk of post-neonatal epilepsy among children with acute provoked neonatal seizures. The researchers aim to develop prediction rules to stratify neonates into low, medium, and high risk for post-neonatal epilepsy based on clinical, electroencephalogram (EEG), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and genetic risk factors.
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is one of the common fatal types of cerebral apoplexy with high mortality and disability rates. Hematoma volume and complications of intracerebral hemorrhage are major predictors of early death and poor prognosis. The hematoma and its metabolites are key therapeutic targets. At present, in order to improve the prognosis of patients, cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) replacement with normal saline(NS) is commonly used in clinical practice to clear the bloody components, which shows a good clinical effect. However, due to the large difference between NS and CSF composition, it is easy to cause secondary injury of brain tissue. Therefore, the replacement of artificial CSF with similar CSF composition will be more effective in reducing the incidence of complications and improve the prognosis of neurological function. The Magnesium-rich Artificial Cerebrospinal Fluid(MACSF) was designed and developed in the early stage of this project which has similar physical and chemical properties to physiological CSF, such as ion species, concentration, the potential of hydrogen (pH) value, and osmotic pressure. Animal experiments had confirmed its safety and effectiveness. In this study, patients with basal ganglia intracerebral hemorrhage ruptured into the ventricle or subarachnoid hemorrhage were stratified randomly divided into MACSF group and NS group. MACSF and NS were used as replacement fluid for lumbar puncture CSF replacement, respectively. By observing and comparing two groups of patients of the Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) on the days14, 30, 60 and 90 after onset; hematoma absorption rate, hemorrhagic CSF removal rate; changes of cerebral autoregulation； incidence of complications, such as acute obstructive hydrocephalus (AOH) and cerebral vasospasm (CVS); the changes of scores and scales about imaging; assessment of neurological function recovery, such as the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and the Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) during hospitalization, headache duration and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), vomiting duration, duration of meningeal irritant, ICU hospitalization duration, total hospitalization duration; change of CSF and peripheral blood biochemical indicators. The objective is to evaluate MACSF replacement therapy in patients with basal ganglia cerebral hemorrhage broken into ventricles and nonaneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage of the influence of absorption rate and prognosis.
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.
