Filter by:This study will be targeting patients suffering from acute brain injury (ABI), including those with severe trauma brain injury (sTBI) and those with aneurysmal sub arachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). This clinical study is an open-label, non-randomized, single-center, exploratory metabolic study. The primary objective is to determine changes from baseline (before enteral administration of Peptamen AF) in plasma and brain extracellular levels of MCFAs and Ketone bodies in sTBI patients upon Peptamen AF nutritional support.
This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, open-label trial with blinded endpoint (PROBE) assessment. Adult patients with the diagnosis of non-traumatic SAH, as proven by computed tomography (CT) within 24 hours after the onset of headache, will be randomly assigned to the treatment group or the control group. Patients in the treatment group will receive standard treatment with the addition of a bolus of TXA (1 g intravenously) immediately after randomization, followed by continuous infusion of 1 g per 8 hours until the start of aneurysm treatment, or a maximum of 24 hours after the start of medication. Patients in the control group will receive standard treatment without TXA. The primary outcome measure is favorable functional outcome, defined as a score of 0 to 3 on the modified Rankin Scale (mRS), at 6 months after SAH. Primary outcome will be determined by a trial nurse blinded for treatment allocation.
The purpose of this research study is to determine if the diameter and flow of the superior mesenteric artery in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage undergoing hypertensive therapy for cerebral artery vasospasm are effected enough to justify withholding enteral nutrition.
This study will investigate the safety and feasibility of early intensive physical therapy for patients diagnosed with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Intervention will begin in the neurological Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and continue for 30 days or hospital discharge.
Pupose: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a rare and not well-known complication of the subarachnoid hemorrhage. This form of heart failure, called as "broke heart" or "apical ballooning syndrome", was first described by Japanese authors at the beginning of 1990's. 1.5-2.2% of acute coronary syndrome is Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Its predisposing factors, hypothetical parthenogenesis, diagnostic criteria and therapeutic methods are already known from the literature. The study intends to include all patients over 18 years of age who were admitted to our clinic within 48 hours after the bleeding regardless of gender, neurological status or age. Data to be registered within 24 hours after admittance: Instruments: - Intracranial blood flow characteristics:TCCD - using Transcranial Color Doppler; systolic, diastolic and mean blood flow velocity, Systolic / Diastolic ratio, pulsatility index - ECG abnormalities: Corrected QT Interval (QTc), T wave, ST segment, arrhythmia - Echocardiography (Ejection fraction%, exact location and degree of cardiac wall motion abnormalities) - documented with video recording Hypothesis: The risk of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TS) is increased if SAH is associated with more severe state, a greater degree of bleeding, intraventricular and/ or intracerebral hemorrhage. The definitive care of patients is postponed due to the appearance of TS, which could affect the final outcome.
This is a Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Study of SFX-01 in Subarachnoid Haemorrhage, with exploratory evaluations of efficacy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and potential therapeutic benefit of use of clazosentan in reversing cerebral vasospasm (a narrowing of blood vessels in the brain due to the presence of blood in the space around the brain) in patients who have suffered a condition known as aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by bleeding onto the surface of the brain from a ruptured brain aneurysm
The main purpose of this study is to analyse the on-going coagulation process after aSAH. For investigation the investigators use the rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) which is a point-of-care test using a variety of activators to provide a targeted and a dynamic analysis of coagulation cascade. This is a prospective, observational clinical study done in 16 aSAH patients treated in Tampere University Hospital intensive care unit and 16 control patients (elective craniotomy due to non-ruptured intracranial aneurysm.
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of conducting a large trial examining the effect on clinical outcome of a liberal red blood cell (RBC) transfusion strategy compared to a restrictive strategy (usual care) in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).
Subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) secondary to ruptured aneurysm represents 5 to 15% of all cases of stroke. The mortality rate of SAH is 40% and the risk of serious neurological sequelae among survivors is 10 to 20%.The causes of morbidity and mortality are mainly related to the initial damage induced by SAH and delayed cerebral ischaemia (DCI), which is generally secondary to cerebral vasospasm. Cerebral vasospasm is one of the main factors of poor prognosis after SAH, as it is associated with a 1.5- to 3-fold increase in the mortality rate during the 2 weeks following SAH in these patients. Despite a significant improvement in the time to management of this disease and the fact that the ruptured aneurysm is very often rapidly excluded by surgical or endovascular intervention, patients who survive the initial SAH remain at risk of severe complications over the following 2 weeks. Vascular stenosis of an arterial segment, called cerebral vasospasm, is observed in more than 70 to 95% of cases on digital subtraction angiography between the 7th and 14th days after ruptured aneurysm. This angiographic vasospasm can be responsible for cerebral infarction in 52 to 81% of cases. Despite 50 years of research, no clearly demonstrated effective treatment for vasospasm is currently available. This is a multicentre, randomized, comparative study, including 364 patients during the acute phase following ruptured aneurysm, in whom management is very often limited to control of complications, after exclusion of the aneurysm. The objective of this study is to validate the efficacy of transcutaneous trigeminal nerve stimulation for the prevention of vasospasm and limitation of the consequences of delayed cerebral ischaemia after SAH. This is an innovative project, as it comprises intervention in these patients prior to the development of complications and could limit the development of these complications. The prevention tool, based on external facial nerve stimulation, is a totally innovative, reversible and noninvasive technique. Use of nerve stimulation in this indication has never been previously reported and could radically modify the intensive care management of this disease over the years to come.
