Filter by:A randomized, double-blind and prospective trial meant to evaluate the use of Glibenclamide on acute aneurysmatic subarachnoid hemorrhage. Patients will allocated randomly in two groups, one for 05 mg daily intake of glibenclamide for 21 days and another for control with placebo. General clinical data and late cognitive status will be accessed in both groups.
The LOVIT study is a European prospective, multi-center, open-label, single-arm feasibility trial designed to determine the safety and angiographic effectiveness through 30 days post treatment with Lumenate Intraluminal Device in the treatment of symptomatic vasospasm.
Stroke is the first most common cause of death in China and one of the major causes of functional disability in the adult population.The burden of stoke is significantly increased in China in recent years. In order to investigate the prognosis of stroke, with diagnostic and treatment information of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), and assess the effectiveness and safety of TCM for stroke in southern China, the investigators will conduct this multicenter prospective registry study in southern China. This study will recruit 10,000 consecutive eligible patients with acute stroke from more than 50 hospitals. 24 months follow-up will be carried out on-site in hospitals and by telephone to track endpoint (including all-cause mortality, composite cerebrovascular and cardiovascular events at one and two year follow up, and neurological and functional assessments).
Near infrared spectroscopy is a valuable tool to monitor cerebral oxygenation during intracranial interventions. However, it yields artificial results when the dye indocyanine green (ICG) is applied, which is routinely done for intraoperative angiography. The investigators examine, to what extent and which duration NIRS is disturbed following ICG application.
The Stroke Recovery Initiative is a nation-wide participant recruitment registry that connects people who have had a stroke with researchers who are working to develop new approaches to improve recovery after stroke.
This registry was created to assess management parameters of patients treated for aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in Switzerland. All Swiss hospitals with a neurosurgery department, an intensive care unit and an interventional neuroradiology team that treat neurovascular emergencies participate in the registry. Clinical parameters are entered into a common database. This database will provide (1) a nationwide assessment of the current standard of care and (2) the outcomes for patients in Switzerland including neuropsychological assessments.
The study purpose is to investigate the hypothesis that in adults with SAH, early neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) and high protein supplementation (HPRO) will improve muscle mass, metabolic and inflammatory biomarker profiles, compared to SAH controls receiving standard of care interventions for nutrition and mobilization. The investigators will accomplish this by studying the effects of a high protein (HPRO) nutritional treatment as well as NMES intervention have upon muscle wasting and motor strength acutely after SAH. This will be addressed in a prospective trial of SAH patients receiving HRPO with NMES as compared to age and severity-matched SAH patients undergoing standard of care interventions for nutrition and mobilization. Additionally, the study will investigate the impact HPRO and NMES interventions have upon inflammatory cytokines and markers of energy balance. Results of this study will establish evidence for precision nutrition plus early exercise to mitigate the catabolic and inflammatory state produced by SAH to improve muscle, metabolic, and health recovery outcomes.
This study aims at clarifying the current situation of Emergency treatment of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in China, and analyzing the safety and efficacy of the treatment strategy between interventional treatment and open surgery, so as to improve the diagnosis and treatment of aneurysmal SAH.
Vasospasm is a common complication after rupture of intracranial aneurysms causing devastating neurologic deficits and death. Vasospasm has been directly associated with the amount of subarachnoid blood inside the basal cisterns. Prior literature has attempted to refine treatment of ruptured intracranial aneurysms but does not have clear guidelines on the optimal method to drain subarachnoid blood. Two methods, extraventricular drain (EVD) and lumbar drain (LD) have been compared retrospectively yet remain controversial as to which method is optimal in reducing subarachnoid blood and preventing vasospasm. This study would be a prospective randomized trial in which patients would be assigned to EVD or LD and observed to see if one method of intervention is associated with preventing clinical vasospasm, decreasing subarachnoid blood, shortening overall ICU stay, and reducing the need for a permanent ventriculoperitoneal shunt. The conclusions of this study may identify an optimal treatment modality to benefit all future patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms.
In patients at risk of increased intracranial pressure (ICP), ICP measurements require invasive transducers, usually with insertion of a catheter into the cranium, or through a spinal tap. These invasive modalities involve risks and pain and they can be done only in specialized care units, with a high associated cost. A novel method for detecting changes in ICP has developed recently. The auditory hair cells emit sounds and electric signals in response to sound, which can be easily detected and measured non-invasively with the help of a microphone probe placed in the external ear canal or regular electrodes. Indeed, the cochlear aqueduct connects the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) spaces to the inner ear in such a way that ICP and inner-ear fluid pressure equalize within seconds. The evaluation of intracranial hypertension by increased ICP (invasive) is not systematically used after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. It is then detected by using routine clinical signs of hydrocephalus or another disorder of cerebrospinal liquid flow, in combination with a standard imaging method (TDM). The measurement of noninvasive ICP could allow earlier detection of hydrocephalus or another disorder of cerebrospinal liquid flow, and evaluate whether the increase in ICP precedes patient clinical worsening and / or imaging.
