Filter by: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.
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.
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
1. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the correlation between the length of ICU stay and a newly developed FIVE score in neuro-intensive care patients. 2. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the impact of the FIVE score on hospital length of stay, Modified Rankin Scale, and mortality, as well as to determine the correlation between the GCS, FOUR, and FIVE scores
The goal of this observational study is to use artificial intelligence to differentiate cerebral hemorrhage from contrast agent extravasation after mechanical revascularization in ischemic stroke. The main question it aims to answer is: Whether artificial intelligence can help differentiate brain hemorrhage from contrast agent extravasation. Patients with intracranial high-density lesions on CT scans within 24h after mechanical revascularization will be included. Expected to enroll 500 patients. The type of high-density lesion is determined according to dual-energy CT images or follow-up images. Patients will be divided into training group, validation and testing groups by stratified random sampling (6:2:2). After the images and the image labels are obtained, deep learning artificial intelligence will be used to learn the image characteristics and establish a diagnostic model, and the model performance and generalization ability will be evaluated.
This study is the first and largest secondary prevention trial about lipid-lowering therapy for acute ischemic stroke patients at high-risk of intracranial hemorrhage. The primary hypothesis of this study is: excessive reduction in serum lipid levels by intensive statin therapy in acute ischemic stroke patients with cerebral microbleeds can increase the risk of intracranial hemorrhage. This study will shed light on new clinical decisions regarding the long-term serum lipid management in these patients with dilemma in clinical practice.
Traumatic brain injury is one of the most common reasons for visits to the Emergency Department. More than 90% of patients who have suffered from head trauma present with a mild traumatic brain injury. Most of these patients do not present any symptom at the time of diagnosis thus delaying the detection. CEREBO®, a non-invasive, portable, rapid, point-of-care intracranial haemorrhage detector can avoid delayed detection by decreasing the time from injury to the initial CT scan. The study aims at assessing the summative usability of the device by determining its ease of use, ease of learning and satisfaction among the medical health professionals. The participants will be trained before the study and will be assessed periodically. Each participant will use the device on at least 10 subjects.
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is the leading cause of death and disability across the globe. Time from injury to treatment is the most critical factor that determines the patient's recovery. Mild TBI with no apparent symptoms are often left undiagnosed, thus delaying the treatment and hence recovery. CEREBO® is a non-invasive, rapid, near-infrared based, point-of-care device that can detect an intracranial bleed at an early stage.
This is a feasibility study trial to determine whether hyperacute (≤8 hour) mechanical Minimal Invasive Surgical (MIS) management is feasible and secondarily improves outcome in patients with spontaneous supratentorial intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). Patients meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria, will be enrolled and randomized to either minimally invasive hematoma evacuation (MIS) or best medical management alone (MM). Subjects will be randomly assigned by a central web-based system in a 3:1 manner to treatment with MIS or MM. Data for each subject will be collected at the time of enrollment and treatment, and at subsequent follow-up visits.
