Stroke, Acute Ischemic Clinical Trial
Official title:
Trendelenburg Position for Acute Anterior Circulation Ischemic Stroke With Large Artery Atherosclerosis Etiology (HOPES 3): a Prospective, Randomized, Open-label, Blinded-endpoint, Multi-center Trial
The effect of head position as a nonpharmacological therapy on acute ischemic stroke (AIS) remains inconclusive. Recent HOPES2 (Head dOwn-Position for acutE moderate ischemic Stroke with large artery atherosclerosis) suggest the safety, feasibility, and potential benefit of the head-down position (HDP) in acute ischemic stroke. The current study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of HDP in acute moderate ischemic stroke patients with large artery atherosclerosis.
