Active clinical trials for "Hemorrhage"

The purpose of this study is to find differences in rates of surgical site infections following emergency laparotomy with the use of two different incisional negative pressure wound therapy (iNPWT)devices.

To verify if there is an association between advanced multimodal brain monitoring parameters in the first 48h and fist 7 days of admission with intrahospital and six-months functional outcome, even when controlled to other factors that may influence the outcome. Secondary Goals: To describe multimodal neuromonitoring parameters variation in the first seven days of ICH and identify any trends.

The objective of the study is to assess brain tissue perfusion by contrast-enhanced ultrasound perfusion imaging (PerCEUS) in acute brain injuries. More precisely, it aims : to evaluate the heterogeneity of brain perfusion and thus diagnose brain tissue hypoperfusion with contrast-enhanced ultrasound. to correlate contrast-enhanced ultrasound with perfusion measurements by usual multimodal monitoring.

The goal of this prospective multi-center observational study is to learn about the osmotic therapy in severe subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: • whether the two osmotic therapy, 20% mannitol and 10% hypertonic saline(HTS), under the same osmotic equivalent, has similar influence on the outcome of SAH patients? Participants will be given proper treatment according to local expert consensus, including the choice of osmotic medicine. Investigators just record and analyse the data, compare mannitol group and HTS group to see if the outcome of latter is not worse than the former.

After review literature, Siriraj hospital has not unanimous protocol to guide proper preoperative anemia and blood transfusion. This retrospective study will review non-cardiac surgery cases and collect data such as demographic data, surgical procedures, anesthetic techniques, preoperative hemoglobin level, intraoperative estimate blood loss, blood transfusion, and post operative complication in Siriraj hospital which has many patients undergo various operations. This study can be model to develop preoperative anemia management guideline in Siriraj Preanesthesia Assessment Center (SIPAC), Siriraj hospital and reduce risk and adverse outcomes after blood transfusion in the future.

The TAG-SVD enrolled patients with clinical and neuroimaging features of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). All enrolled patients will receive next-generation sequence (NGS) with probes designed to target five candidate CSVD genes, and patients will be divided into genetic or non-genetic groups accordingly. Their clinical features and outcome will be followed for at least 2 years.

10-20% of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage die before they arrive at the hospital, and about 25% die within 24 hours. About 1% of patients are diagnosed with cerebral aneurysms in imaging tests for health checkups, and many of them experience aneurysmal rupture during their lifetime, so it is not a rare disease. Wall shear stress is known to be a factor that reflects the state of blood vessels, and particularly plays an important role in the patency of the intima of blood vessels. In the meantime, computed fluid dynamics (CFD), a representative method for calculating wall shear stress, assumes a virtual rigid pipe and applies a preset value. This does not accurately reflect the physiological and dynamic state of the actual blood vessel. The investigators intend to measure the patient's wall shear stress using the SIG of the MRA-TOF technique, which reflects the physiological characteristics of individual patients, and to analyze the association with rupture of the intracranial aneurysm.

The NSR-GENE study is a longitudinal cohort study of approximately 300 parent-child trios from the Neonatal Seizure Registry and participating site outpatient clinics that aims to evaluate whether and how genes alter the risk of post-neonatal epilepsy among children with acute provoked neonatal seizures. The researchers aim to develop prediction rules to stratify neonates into low, medium, and high risk for post-neonatal epilepsy based on clinical, electroencephalogram (EEG), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and genetic risk factors.

A study in the use of the Narcotrend depth of anaesthesia monitor to record a) seizures, and b) monitor a level of sedation referred to as 'burst suppression', in sedated patients in the adult and paediatric intensive care. Studies have shown that patients in coma on the intensive care unit may have subclinical in addition to clinical seizures. Subclinical seizures are seizures that do not show any outward signs and may go undetected. The current gold standard of recording seizures in the intensive care unit is by non-invasive, continuous monitoring of the electrical activity of the brain by electroencephalography (cEEG) using cerebral function analysing monitor (CFAM). This is recorded with simultaneous video recording and is performed by Clinical Neurophysiology departments. There has been a steady increase in demand for this service over recent years. Additionally, CFAM / cEEG is labour intensive and expensive. If trends continue, the proportion of hospitals offering CFAM / cEEG will continue to rise, creating increased demand for specialist staff, of which there are a finite number. Depth of anaesthesia monitors are used by anaesthetists to assess the level of anaesthesia in sedated patients using specialised, automated EEG analysis and are now recommended by NICE (DG6) to tailor anaesthetic dose to individual patients. This study aims to investigate the utility of the Narcotrend depth of anaesthesia monitor to monitor for seizures and burst suppression on the adult and paediatric intensive care unit. These monitors are cheaper and more widely available with the scope to be used at every bed space requiring neuro observation on the intensive care unit. The study aims to recruit all patients who are referred for CFAM / cEEG monitoring at Nottingham University Hospitals (NUH) Trust over a 12 month period. These patients will undergo simultaneous recording using CFAM / cEEG and depth of anaesthesia monitoring.

The research will investigate the hypothesis that timely identification of the optimal value of the cerebral perfusion pressure (optCPP) or optimal arterial blood pressure (optABP) is possible after detecting informative episodes of arterial blood pressure (ABP) that reflects the physiological autoregulatory reactions of the cerebral blood flow, This biomedical study will be conducted to test this hypothesis and to develop an algorithm for identification of optimal brain perfusion pressure within limited time (several tens of minutes). The goal of this observational study is to test the method of timely optimal cerebral perfusion pressure value or optimal arterial pressure value in intensive care patients after brain surgery. The main question it aims to answer are: how long it takes to identify optimal cerebral perfusion value when arterial blood pressure is changing within safe physiological limits. Objectives of the study To perform a prospective observational study by collecting multimodal physiological brain monitoring data: intracranial pressure (ICP), arterial blood pressure (ABP), End-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2), cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV), ECG. To perform a retrospective analysis of the accumulated clinical monitoring data, in order to create an algorithm for the identification of informative monitoring data fragments, according to which it would be possible to identify the optimal cerebral perfusion pressure (optCPP) value in a limited time interval (within a few or a dozen minutes). To perform a retrospective analysis of accumulated clinical monitoring data, determining correlations of cerebral blood flow autoregulation and optCPP-related parameters with the clinical outcome of patients and with the risk of cerebral vasospasm or cerebral ischemia.
