The goal of this prospective observational study is to assess the effectiveness and performance of Methinks AI stroke imaging software platform in acute Code Stroke patients, and as a comparator to study sites utilizing existing AI imaging stroke platforms. The main question[s] it aims to answer is: • Performance of and outcomes associated with the use of the Methinks AI stroke imaging medical device in real-world clinical practice.
Oxidative stress is one of the main mechanisms causing harm in severe infection with septic shock, ischemia-reperfusion injury in resuscitated cardiac arrest and ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. Melatonin is a potent scavenger of the mediators of oxidative stress, oxygen and nitrogen-reactive species, which directly injure cell structures like walls and DNA and thus cause organ dysfunction. In a previous study we have observed that high-dose oral bedtime melatonin (OBM) is associated with improved organ function in severe Covid-19 patients
The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of 6-weeks of reactive balance training (REACT) with and without neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) to paretic lower limb muscles on biomechanical, clinical, neuromuscular and neuroplastic outcomes of reactive balance control. This project is a Phase-I study and incorporates a double-blinded, randomized controlled trial design. Methods: Forty-six individuals with chronic stroke will be recruited and screened for determining their eligibility for the study. Once enrolled, they will be randomized into either of the two groups: intervention group (23 participants) and control group (23 participants). Both groups will undergo series of pre-training assessments which includes a postural disturbance in the form of a slip- or trip-like perturbations and walking tests in laboratory environment. After the pre-training assessment, individuals will undergo 6-weeks of training (2 hour per session, 2 sessions per week). The intervention group will receive NMES with the REACT training and the control group will receive ShamNMES. NMES will be applied to the different muscle groups of the paretic lower limb using an advanced software which is able to synchronize muscle activation with the time of perturbation onset and according to the phases of gait. After training, both groups will again be tested on all the assessments performed pre training. This study will help us understand the immediate therapeutic and mechanistic effects of REACT+NMES and inform stroke rehabilitation research and clinical practice. Our study will provide foundational evidence for future use of NMES to implement clinically applicable neuromodulation adjuvants to reactive balance training, which could be leveraged for designing more effective future interventions for fall-risk reduction.
Severe trauma, head trauma, stroke and resuscitated cardiac arrest patients requiring endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation are at high risk of early-onset ventilator-associated pneumonia (EO-VAP). A short course of systemic antibiotic is recommended for prophylaxis. This study intends to assess the safety and efficacy of 2 alternative mechanical non-invasive airway clearance techniques in the prevention of EO-VAP in an open label randomized pilot trial of 20 subjects per study group i.e., 60 cases. The interventions will be in place for 7 days and the observational periods will be 14 days.
The present clinical investigation - EarlyExo, is an interventional, international, multicentric, prospective, single-blinded randomized controlled trial. This clinical investigation is designed to test the hypothesis that early and intense introduction of walking sessions assisted by the Atalante exoskeleton, in a sample of hemiparetic patients with still non or poor ambulatory capacities (FAC 0 or 1) between one- and four-months post stroke, would result in a better recovery of functional walking compared to a control group only receiving conventional therapy. Improved recovery will be measured through the proportion of patients reaching a FAC score of 4 or higher at the end of the intervention period. The tested hypothesis is that this proportion will be higher in the Exo group. The duration of the intervention period in both groups is 6 weeks. - For the Exo group: 3 sessions per week (i.e., 18 one-hour sessions) with the Atalante device and 2 sessions per week (i.e., 12 one-hour sessions) of conventional therapy. - For the Control group: 5 sessions per week of conventional therapy (i.e., 30 one-hour sessions). The study will include 66 patients (33 in each arm) and takes place in two French centers, two German centers and one Spanish center.
Chronic intracranial arterial occlusion is associated with a "bidirectional stroke risk," with a significantly increased risk of both ischemic stroke and cerebral hemorrhage. Currently, Western CTAP products, in combination with clinical expertise, offer some predictive value for assessing the risk of ischemic events by evaluating compensatory pathways and overall perfusion in chronic intracranial arterial occlusion. However, there is limited support for assessing the risk of hemorrhagic events. Our proposed project aims to address a significant scientific challenge: the precise assessment of long-term stroke risk in asymptomatic patients with chronic intracranial arterial occlusion using a machine learning-based approach. The rapidly advancing field of machine learning provides a rich set of solutions for tackling this problem. In this project, we intend to develop a deep learning-based segmentation model for key brain regions using multimodal CT scans. Subsequently, we will automate the extraction of radiomic features and CT perfusion parameters, followed by the application of machine learning techniques to construct a stroke risk prediction model tailored for patients with chronic intracranial arterial occlusion.
The purpose of this research is to better understand the impact of cortically-induced blindness (CB) and the compensatory strategies subjects with this condition may develop on naturalistic behaviors, specifically, driving. Using a novel Virtual Reality (VR) program, the researchers will gather data on steering behavior in a variety of simulated naturalistic environments. Through the combined use of computer vision, deep learning, and gaze-contingent manipulations of the visual field, this work will test the central hypothesis that changes to visually guided steering behaviors in CB are a consequence of changes to the visual sampling and processing of task-related motion information (i.e., optic flow).
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the COOLSTAT® Transnasal Thermal Regulating Device in reducing temperature in a population of febrile subjects who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria.
