Filter by:The aim of this study is to see if administering platelets (cells in our blood that stop or prevent bleeding) results in improved platelet function and slows/stops the progression of a head bleed for patients who have a traumatic head bleed and are on antiplatelet therapy (medications that stop blood cells from forming a blood clot) prior to admission.
This protocol is for an open-label randomized trial evaluating the safety of using ketamine in combination with propofol for sedation versus the standard of care analgosedation in patients admitted to the intensive care unit with severe traumatic brain injury.
FAITH study is a multicentre retrospective analysis study that aims to understand the burden of ICH related to FXa inhibitors and the current treatment approaches in country/countries where specific reversal agents are not available yet. The results of this analysis will improve our understanding of FXa inhibitor-related ICH, its socioeconomic impact and factors associated with negative outcomes in real-world settings. The insights gained can inform clinical decision making and potentially lead to strategies to optimise the use of FXa inhibitors, increase the availability of specific reversal agents and improve patient safety and outcomes.
This trial is a clinical prospective observational study. Cases meeting the entry criteria undergo near-infrared spectroscopy(NIRS)detection. Data collection mainly includes hematoma thickness on cranial CT, and bilateral NIRS data.This trial tries to explore the reliability and accuracy of NIRS detection of subcranial hematoma.
The goal of this observational study is to develop and validate a clinical tool to predict which adolescents aged 11 to less than 18 years of age with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) are at an increased risk for developing significant new or worsening mental health conditions. The main aims the study wish to answer are: - Does the adolescent have new or worsening depression or anxiety defined as a change from their previous medical history using self-reported questionnaires at either one or three months post-injury? - Does the adolescent have unmet mental health care needs, defined as not receiving any mental or behavior health care in patients with new or worsening anxiety or depression as defined by the self reported questionnaires? Participants will be enrolled after being diagnosed in the emergency department (ED) with an mTBI. During the ED visit, the child's parent/caregiver and the adolescent will complete several questionnaires related to mental health which include tools to measure anxiety and depression. Participants will be asked to complete these questionnaires again at 1 month and 3 months post enrollment.
Older people falling from a standing height is the most common cause of hospital admission for head injury. Up to 1 in 3 patients admitted are taking a tablet medication which thins the blood, known as an oral anticoagulant. This type of medication can increase the likelihood of bleeding in the brain. Many patients are taking oral anticoagulation due to having an irregular heartbeat (called atrial fibrillation) or because of having a previous stroke or blood clots. When a scan shows blood in the brain, oral anticoagulation is nearly always stopped. However, this leaves the question of when it is safe to restart them. The risk of making the bleeding in the brain worse must be balanced against the risk of having a stroke or blood clots. There is no clear evidence on the safest time to restart oral anticoagulation, but most neurosurgeons advise restarting them 1-4 weeks after head injury. The number of people who have a bleed on their brain after a head injury is increasing and further brain bleeding or a stroke can have a serious effect on patients' lives and their on-going healthcare needs. Public and patient groups have highlighted that many patients want to stop taking oral anticoagulation after a bleed but they may be unaware of the vital importance of restarting this medication to prevent strokes and blood clots. The most popular oral anticoagulation prescribed has changed in recent years from warfarin to newer medications called Direct Oral Anti-Coagulants (DOACs). This trial will recruit 1084 people who are admitted to hospital with a bleed on the brain caused by a head injury who were taking oral anticoagulation before their head injury and have been prescribed a Direct Oral Anti-Coagulant (DOAC) for previously diagnosed medical condition. Patients on other Oral Anti-Coagulants, such as Warfarin may also be able to take part. The main purpose of the trial is to determine when is most beneficial time for people to start or restart a DOAC after their head injury. People will be asked to start the medication either 1 week or 4 weeks after their head injury. They will be then followed closely for 12 weeks and any major bleeding events or a blood clots (thrombotic events) such as a stroke or heart attack will be recorded. The study will also look at the person's overall quality of life, how they recover physically, the number of people who die, the costs of the treatment, and the attitudes of people and their caregivers to starting or restarting a DOAC.
The goal of this observational study is to train a machine learning system based on data from patients affected by spontaneous Intracranial Hemorrage. The main question it aims to answer is whether there is a correlation between actual clinical pratice, reached outcomes and favorable or unfavorable predictive factors, and anamnesis. Participants will be treated as per standard clinical practice.
To establish a predictive model and scoring system for predicting severe complications after thrombectomy. This scoring system can be used to identify high-risk patients after endovascular thrombectomy, guide the early use of adjunctive interventions, and provide reference for future clinical trials.
Patients with acute severe brain injury are usually admitted to the Intensive Care Unit. A substantial proportion of these patients will have disorders of consciousness (DOC) after interruption of sedation. It is difficult to reliably predict neurological outcome in these patients. Dependent on the extent of permanently damaged brain areas, DOC in patients with acute severe brain injury may improve or persist, eventually evolving into a minimal conscious state (MCS) or unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (UWS). These conditions are accompanied by long term severe disability. In current practice, the decision to withdraw life-sustaining support is made by interpreting the results of repeated bedside neurological examination and conventional CT-brain imaging. Reliable identification of patients with a possible good outcome, in whom treatment should not be withdrawn, is difficult. In this prospective observational cohort study we aim to identify patients with a good neurological outcome.
Descriptive observational study in patients with spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage or following aneurysmal rupture to assess the presence of a post-HSA syndrome at 3 months, 6 months and 1 year, and its impact on functional outcome using the Rivermead questionnaire
