About this trial
This is an interventional device feasibility trial for Stroke
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- All patients with a subacute ischemic stroke with symptom onset within 8 weeks
- Must have a measurable deficit on the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS)
- Able to give and sign informed consent
Exclusion Criteria:
- Aphasia
- Underlying dementia
- Any chronic neurological disorder
- Malignancy
- Non-ambulatory (ambulation with assistance will be included)
- Modified Rankin Score (mRS) > 3
Sites / Locations
- The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston
Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Label
Combined EEG and fNIRS
Arm Description
EEG is electroencephalography. fNIRS is functional near infrared spectroscopy. The EEG+NIRS recordings will be obtained via an extended EEG cap that is applied to the subject's head. Changes in neuronal activity and hemodynamics will be measured.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Number of participants with abnormal blood flow as assessed by fNIRS
Abnormal blood flow is determined by comparing a part of the patient's brain not affected by stroke to a part of the patient's brain affected by stroke.
Number of participants with abnormal neuronal activity as assessed by EEG
Abnormal neuronal activity is determined by comparing a part of the patient's brain not affected by stroke to a part of the patient's brain affected by stroke.
