Filter by:The purpose of this observational registry is to report real-world safety and performance of VeriSight for ultrasound guided ICE imaging in percutaneous cardiac intervention procedures when used in standard clinical practice.
Objective To evaluate whether Xingnaojing injection combined with Naoxueshu oral liquid can significantly improve the clinical outcome of patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. Secondary objectives included to evaluate whether combined application of Xingnaojing injection and Naoxueshu oral liquid can promote hematoma absorption or reduce perihematoma cerebral edema in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage
This study aims to assess the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF), documented using data recorded by an implantable Holter monitoring device (Reveal Linq, Medtronic) within 2 years after percutaneous closure of patent foramen ovale for cryptogenic stroke.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic and functional gains of a myoelectric elbow-wrist-hand orthosis for adult individuals with upper limb impairments using repeated measures studies that combines both gross motion and quantitative function outcome measures.
The objective of this study is to establish a near-real-time prospective monitoring program in Medicare, Optum and MarketScan Research data to evaluate the benefit of new cardiovascular disease (CVD) drugs for older adults with frailty. Prospective monitoring program seeks to find early effectiveness and safety signals of new drugs by updating the analysis at regular intervals as new Medicare data become available. This study specifically aims to emulate a prospective surveillance of the effectiveness and safety of non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants (NOAC) vs. a comparator, warfarin, in older adults with atrial fibrillation and different frailty status. This program will be enhanced by incorporating a novel claims-based frailty index, which has been shown useful in assessing how the benefits and harms of drug therapy vary by frailty.
Purpose The purpose of the study is to evaluate if training with oral screen IQoro® improves swallowing in patients with dysphagia after stroke. Method Inpatient from a stroke unit in Sweden who have been assessed with fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing(FEES) which proves swallowing difficulties (dysphagia) were recruited. The participants were randomise to control- or intervention group. Both groups received usual care. The intervention group were instructed to oral screen (IQoro®) training for 13 weeks. Follow up with FEES was made 13 weeks post of recruitment. The assess with FEES was recorded and the recordings are going to be analyzed afterwards to compare the swallowing ability between baseline and follow up in group and between group.
This retrospective cohort study aims to characterise outcomes for patients treated on an intensive care unit (ICU) with COVID-19 in England and Wales, one year after discharge from hospital. Outcomes will be compared with patients admitted as an emergency to an ICU for other conditions. The study will use existing national audit data linked to routine healthcare datasets.
Undernutrition is a frequent problem in hospitals (at least 30% of patients, SENECA-NHANES studies). Its impact on morbidity and mortality is well known in gerontology, oncology and intensive care. There are very few neurovascular studies dealing with the consequences of undernutrition present before the stroke. Indeed, most of the medical literature concerns only undernutrition acquired after a stroke. The investigator propose to analyze medical data from a cohort of patients over 70 years of age thrombolysed and/or thrombectomized in the neurovascular department between the years 2014 and 2019.
The main aim of the study is to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of ischemic stroke patients with atrial fibrillation and concurrent carotid atherosclerosis. Additionally, this study will investigate the effect of concurrent carotid atherosclerosis on the outcomes of recurrent stroke, myocardial infarction and death during follow-up
Phase 2/3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-treatment, multicenter trial assessing the efficacy and safety of MYOBLOC for the treatment of upper limb spasticity in adults followed by an open-label extension safety trial.
