NCT07527013
The RESCUE-BP is a multi-centered, prospective, randomized, open label, blinded endpoint (PROBE) phase III trial. In patients with acute ischemic stroke who have undergone endovascular treatment and achieved successful recanalization, the evaluation will compare a stratified blood pressure management strategy based on the collateral circulation status with the guideline-recommended conventional blood pressure management strategy. Within each stratum, participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either the stratified blood pressure management strategy group or the guideline-recommended conventional blood pressure management group. The goal is to determine whether this can improve good functional outcomes at 90 days (90-day Modified Rankin Scale \[mRS\] score 0-2). The study consists of four visits including the day of randomization, 24±4 hours after randomization, 7±1 days after randomization and 90±7 days after randomization. Demographic information, symptoms and signs, laboratory test, neuro-imaging assessment, neurological function rating scale will be recorded during the program. The primary outcome is the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of 0 to 2 at 90±7 days after randomization. The primary safety outcome is the incidence of sICH within 24±4 hours after randomization.
NCT07321275
Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) is a common and serious complication after acute ischaemic stroke (AIS). Existing scores rely mainly on clinical variables, and the added prognostic value of inflammatory markers and early chest CT findings remains uncertain. We developed and externally validated an early multimodal model combining clinical severity, inflammation, and chest CT abnormalities, and explored risk-stratified associations between prophylactic antibiotics and SAP.
NCT01207336
Recent work showed that application of peripheral nerve and cortical stimulation independently can induce 10-15 % improvement in motor performance in patients with chronic stroke. The purpose of this study was to compare in post-stroke hemiplegic patients the effect on motor recovery of one session of anodal transcranial direct current stimulation to the ipsilesional primary motor cortex (M1) combined with a peripheral radial nerve electrical stimulation (rEPNS) to the paretic hand repeated 5 successive days with the effect of the same peripheral nerve stimulation combined with sham tDCS. Design: randomized, double-blind, parallel controlled clinical trial. Patients eligible for the study: Acute ischaemic stroke Primary outcome measure: Jebsen Taylor test Secondary outcome measures Nine peg hole test Hand tapping grip and wrist force Cortical excitability of Ipsilesional M1(TMS) Follow-up: 30 days
NCT03865225
This explorative prospective study aims to assess the effects of heart rate variability biofeedback (HRV biofeedback) in patients with acute ischaemic stroke. Furthermore, the investigators aim to examine the impact of the intervention on cardiac autonomic function and further autonomic parameters such as sudomotor (sympathetic perspiratory gland function) and vasomotor function (sympathetic arterial function). Patients testing is going to be conducted at the Department of Neurology, University Hospital Carl Gustave Carus, Dresden, Germany.
NCT03971526
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the diagnostic cornerstone for precisely identifying acute ischaemic strokes and locating vascular occlusions. It was observed that a post-contrast three-dimensional turbo-spin-echo T1weighted sequence showed striking post-contrast vascular hyperintensities (PCVH) in ischaemic territories. The aim is to evaluate the prevalence and the meaning of this finding. This study included 130 consecutive patients admitted for acute ischaemic stroke with a 3-T MRI performed in the first 12 h of symptom onset from September 2014 through September 2016. Two neuroradiologists blinded to clinical data analysed the first MRI assessments.
NCT02164357
This study will compare two ways of treatment for acute ischemic stroke: an endovascular treatment (EVT), defined as intraarterial thrombolysis and/or mechanical thrombectomy as a first choice treatment versus intravenous thrombolytic therapy (IVT) only or followed by EVT in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to a main brain artery occlusion within 4.5 hours after onset. Patients treated with IVT only or with IVT followed by EVT will be analyzed separately.
