Filter by:The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of higher doses of monosialoganglioside GM1 injection in the treatment of patients with acute ischemic stroke.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel controlled, post marketing confirmatory clinical trial in Chinese patients with acute ischemic stroke. Objective to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cinepazide maleate injection compared with placebo in the treatment of patients with acute ischemic stroke.
After acute ischemic stroke, the muscle strength of the limbs of the patients will decrease. Moreover, the respiratory muscles may also be affected. The respiratory muscle training may improve the respiratory recovery and prevent pulmonary complication.
This study aims at assessing the proportion of patients suffering from neuro-visual troubles (visual-spatial and/or visual-perceptual ), after cerebellar strokes.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the safety of N-Acetylcysteine as a thrombolytic agent in acute ischemic stroke, especially regarding the risk of hemorrhagic transformation.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of a 4-week lower extremity telerehabilitation protocol with aims to improve lower extremity function to a 4-week attention-controlled education program on lower extremity clinical outcomes, quality of life, and healthcare resources utilization among community dwelling adults with stroke across Canada.
This protocol is part of an Individual Patient Expanded Access IND. The patient is an 84-year-old male with history of Ischemic Stroke of the Left Middle Cerebral Artery causing an acute posterior left frontal cortical infarct with petechial hemorrhage and mild local mass effect without midline shift. The Stroke was due to a long-standing evolution of atrial fibrillation that provoked an embolus. The original stroke event happened on February/14/2022.
This study is designed to determine the efficacy and safety of Cerebrolysin treatment as an add- on therapy to mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in reducing global disability in subjects with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). The investigators have planned a single centre, prospective, open-label, single-arm study with 12 months follow-up of 50 patients with moderate to severe AIS, with a small established infarct core and with good collateral circulation who achieve significant reperfusion following MT and who receive additional Cerebrolysin within 8 hours of stroke onset compared to 50 historical controls treated with MT alone - matched for age, clinical severity, occlusion location, baseline perfusion lesion volume, onset to reperfusion time and use of iv thrombolytic therapy (rt-PA). The primary outcome measure will be overall proportion of subjects receiving Cerebrolysin comparing to control group experiencing a favorable functional outcome (by modified Rankin Scale [mRS] 0-2) at 7 day, 30 days, 90 days and 12 months following stroke onset. The secondary objectives are to determine the efficacy of Cerebrolysin as compared to control group in reducing risk of symptomatic secondary hemorrhagic transformation, improving neurological outcome (NIHSS 0-2 at day 7, day 30 and 90); reducing mortality rates (over the 90-day and 12 months study period); and improving: activities of daily living (by Barthel Index; BI), health-related quality of life (as measured by the EQ-5D-5L) assessed at day 30, 90 and at 12 months. The other measures of efficacy in Cerebrolysin group will include: assessment of final stroke volume and penumbral salvage (measured by CT/CTP at 30 days) and its change compared to baseline volume, changes over time in language function (by the 15-item Boston Naming Test), hemispatial neglect (by line bisection test), global cognitive function (by The Montreal Cognitive Assessment) and depression (by Hamilton Depression Rating Scale) between day 30 and day 90 assessments). The patients will receive 30 ml of Cerebrolysin within 8h of AIS stroke onset and continue treatment once daily until day 21 (first cycle) and they will receive a second cycle of treatment (30 ml/d for 21 days given in the Outpatient Department or Neurorehabilitation Clinic) from day 69 to 90 (± 3 days). All the patients (including those from the control group) receive the same standardized rehabilitation program (including speech therapy, occupational and physical therapy) during hospitalization at Stroke Unit and at Neurorehabilitation Clinic until day 90 according to local procedures. Historical data will be obtained by retrospective clinical chart reviews of patients hospitalized in the study center between Jan.2018 and Dec.2020 and fulfilling the same clinical and radiological inclusion criteria in whom 12-month follow-up (including mRS, NIHSS, BI, EQ-5D-5L) could be obtained.
Recovery of upper limb and hand gestures is fundamental for autonomy restoration after stroke. Innovative technologies are a valid support for the delivery of rehabilitation treatments. Embedding surface electromyographic (sEMG) into wearable devices, allows the customisation of rehabilitation exercises, based on the clinical profile of each patient.
Prospective multicenter study of consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke and large intracranial vessel occlusion in which a thorough and systematic evaluation of all variables that may be related to the degree of collateral circulation is performed.
