Filter by:This is a multi-center retrospective analysis of consecutive adult patients with cryptogenic stroke patients following a comprehensive workup for the underlying stroke etiology. Patients will be eligible for inclusion if the index stroke event occurred between 1/1/2016 and 06/30/2022.
This observational study was designed for observe the cerebral hemodynamics and dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA) after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. And analysis the relationship between the dCA damage degree and hemorrhage transformation (HT) and clinical outcome. Patients: patients with AIS caused by middle cerebral artery or internal carotid artery occlusion who accepted EVT. dCA Examination: dCA examinations were performed at 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, and 5 days after EVT. The objectives of the study were as follows: The changes of cerebral hemodynamics and parameters of dCA in different time periods after EVT were analyzed. So as to determine the correlation between hemodynamics and dCA change and HT and clinical outcome after EVT and to explore the predictors of HT and adverse clinical outcomes.
Individuals surviving Chronic Ischemic Stroke have lingering walking deficits long after their infarct. The main goal of this study is to compare two high intensity treadmill walking programs to see which improves walking more. The main question we aim to answer is: How does blood flow restricted high-intensity treadmill training impact walking function? Participants will be randomly separated into two groups. One group will perform the high intensity treadmill training with blood flow restriction on their Stroke affected leg, while the second group performs high intensity treadmill training only. Every week participants will be asked to walk on the treadmill for a total of 75 minutes during 2x 1-hour sessions. On visit 1, participants will undergo strength, balance, and walking testing. They will then be treated 2x weekly for 4 weeks (visit 2-9) and be re-tested to track progress on visit 10. Participants will again be treated 2x weekly for 4 more weeks (visit 11-18) and be tested to see the end results on visit 19. Researchers will then compare both groups to see if blood flow restriction training changes walking function, strength, and balance.
The APPEND-CT registry is an investigator-driven multicenter retrospective observational database intended to compile cardiac CT follow-up data after Watchman FLX device implantation and function as a platform for answering clinical and research questions within LAAC follow-up. The derived studies should support therapeutic decision-making, improve risk-stratification in LAAC and help generate hypotheses for potential future clinical intervention trials.
The Department of Physical Therapy in conjunction with the Comprehensive Stroke Center at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) seeks support for developing an evidence-based approach for the mobilization of patients within the first 24 hours of admission for an acute stroke and for increasing the frequency and intensity of acute PT services while inpatient. This evidence will prepare physical therapists and guide practice in the delivery of acute stroke mobilization in the hospital setting to optimize length of stay, disposition planning, and enhance long term recovery outcomes. This research hopes to challenge the clinical paradigm regarding the possibility of decreased functional outcomes with early mobilization post stroke. The investigators acknowledge that acute stroke patients may not be able to tolerate an extensive early mobility program but may benefit from shorter more frequent sessions of therapy early in their recovery. Throughout the literature, there are clinical practice guidelines for both the inpatient rehabilitation and outpatient therapy sectors and post stroke recovery. Little is known about the contribution of therapy services in the acute hospital setting and therapy's impact on long term functional gains. The goal of this project is to determine the appropriate dosage of post stroke mobility in the acute care hospital setting.
This comparative effectiveness trial (CET) in children with suspected focal cerebral arteriopathy (FCA) presenting with arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) or transient ischemic attack (TIA) will compare the use of early corticosteroid treatment (Arm A) versus delayed/no corticosteroid treatment (Arm B). Delayed corticosteroid treatment is given only for those demonstrating disease progression and is initiated as soon as the progression is detected (at any time after randomization). All participants will also receive standard of care therapy (aspirin and supportive care). Sites will randomize participants 1:1 to Arm A or B. Participants will be enrolled and randomized as soon as possible after their stroke/TIA up until 96 hours following the initial stroke/TIA event.
The purpose of this study is to determine a standardized protocol for swallowing therapy and this protocol's effects on recovery after a stroke
The aim of this study is to establish an academic, real-world, single-center, observational registry of consecutive patients hospitalized with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to large vessel occlusions (LVO), treated with either endovascular therapy (EVT) or best medical management (BMM).
The study will make an association between the diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine that establishes that the syndrome of blood stagnation generates alteration in blood flow, vascular dysfunction, and damage to the endothelium. This process is like what occurs in a stroke. It will use electroacupuncture to change this chronic inflammatory process, and to know the effects and efficacy of this technique in the regulation and modulation of to treat extensive inflammatory diseases. However, this inflammatory response must be associated with serum cholesterol levels, since they are associated with a stroke between the LDL-C/HDL-C ratio and the prognosis after a stroke.
In this study we want to develop and validate a PREM for patient with ischemic stroke.
