Filter by:Postictus hyperglycemia is associated with an accelerated transformation of the ischemic penumbra into an infarct area, with increased infarct size, worse recanalization, reduced cerebral perfusion, increased ischemia reperfusion damage, and worse outcome. Furthermore, when perfusion is reinstated, hyperglycemia causes secondary tissue damage through an increase in ischemic reperfusion damage. Thus, those patients with glycemia values < 155 mg/dL during mechanical thrombectomy, and especially at the time of reperfusion, will have greater ischemia-reperfusion damage, showing a different profile in miRNA expression, with better neurological and functional outcomes and higher risk of hemorrhagic transformation and cerebral edema. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the association between glycemia values at the time of reperfusion and stroke recovery at 3 months in patients with acute cerebral infarction treated with mechanical thrombectomy.
A multicenter observational data development registry collecting diagnostic measures via standard of care (SOC) cardiac PET in order gain a better understanding of how CardioFlux MCG may be used in the detection of coronary ischemia.
Study using ultrasound of the brain as a diagnostic tool to differentiate between ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke. Correlation of brain perfusion and size of stroke in relation to systemic hemodynamic targets will be assessed on serial scans.
We will establish a cohort of 570 symptomatic chronic coronary syndrome patients undergoing 15O-water PET and assess their symptoms through repeated questionnaires. Two hundred patients with abnormal perfusion will be randomized to immediate or delayed referral to invasive coronary angiography with concomitant optimization of guideline-directed medical therapy with repeated 15O-water PET and questionnaires at 3 and 6 months. The primary objective is to compare the potential benefit of early invasive coronary angiography (ICA) versus guideline directed medical therapy (GDMT) on symptomatic relief defined as freedom of angina after 3 months following a positive [15O]H2O cardiac PET/CT in patients with symptomatic chronic coronary syndrome.
A Multicenter Registry of Endovascular Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke.
The aim of this study is to investigate whether measurement of the long forms of cTnT with the novel SuperTROPO assay would improve the diagnosis of myocardial infarction in patients in the emergency department. The main goals are: 1. To assess whether measuring long forms of cTnT with the novel SuperTROPO assay and determining the ratio of long cTnT and standard high-sensitivity cTnT could separate patients with type 1 NSTEMI patients from patients with other causes of minor (> 14ng/L) cTnT elevation in a single admission blood sample in unselected emergency department patients with clinical indication for troponin measurement. 2. To compare the level of long cTnT and the ratio of long cTnT and standard cTnT in patients with type 1 MI and various clinical patient groups admitted to emergency department with elevated standard cTnT, e.g. patients with atrial fibrillation, heart failure or renal impairment. 3. To evaluate optimal cut-off values for long cTnT and its ratio to standard cTnT in the exclusion and diagnosis of MI in a clinical setting with elevated (>14ng/L) cTnT. 4. To evaluate how time from symptom onset and peak symptom to blood sampling, as well as comorbidities and patients' age impact the discriminative capacity of long cTnT and cTnT ratio between patients with and without type 1 MI. 5. To investigate whether information on long cTnT and its ratio to standard cTnT can be used to cut down unnecessary coronary angiographies and hospital admissions The long forms of cTnT are measured from the residual blood samples routinely collected from patients with suspected myocardial infarction.
A multicenter, prospective, open-label, blinded endpoint, randomized controlled trial aiming at evaluating the efficacy and safety of intra-arterial recombinant human tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) after successful recanalization of acute large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation by mechanical thrombectomy in improving the 90-day functional outcome.
The goal of this observational, practice-based feasibility study is to observe the efficacy and safety of intramuscular administration of Stempeucel® in Malaysian patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) due to peripheral arterial disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can intramuscular administration of Stempeucel® reduce symptoms of CLI due to peripheral arterial disease while improving the healing rate and functional outcomes? - Does intramuscular administration of Stempeucel® causes any serious adverse events in CLI due to peripheral arterial disease patients? Study patients will be assessed by the PI before administering the Stempeucel® for any other organ with inflammation. The study patients will also be followed up to the duration of 1 year after study treatment administration for safety and efficacy assessment.
The goal of this observational, practice-based feasibility study is to observe the efficacy and safety of intramuscular administration of Stempeucel® in Malaysian patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) due to Buerger's disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can intramuscular administration of Stempeucel® reduce symptoms of CLI due to Buerger's disease while improving the healing rate and functional outcomes? - Does intramuscular administration of Stempeucel® causes any serious adverse events in CLI due to Buerger's disease patients? Study patients will be assessed by the PI before administering the Stempeucel® for any other organ with inflammation. The study patients will also be followed up to the duration of 1 year after study treatment administration for safety and efficacy assessment.
RESTORE is a randomized clinical trial investigating the safety and feasibility of using EEG treatment targets (burst suppression vs. seizure suppression) for post-cardiac arrest refractory status epilepticus treatment.
