Italian Translation and Transcultural Validation of Frenchay Activity Index and Walking Handicap...

Stroke Sequelae

This study is aimed at providing an Italian version of two assessment tools for participation in stroke patients, the Frenchay Activity Index (FAI) and the Walking Handicap Classification (WHC) by a standardized translation and transcultural validation protocol. The protocol includes a pre-test of the Italian version on ten patients, a final revision, and a validation on a sample of 60 stroke patients.

Improved Prediction of Recurrent Stroke and Detection of Small Volume Stroke

Ischemic Stroke

Rationale: Over 20.000 people suffer an ischemic stroke in the Netherlands each year. Large artery occlusions are easy to identify and can be treated with endovascular clot removal. 70% of patient will however suffer from a more distal occlusion resulting in small volume stroke or a transient ischemic attack (TIA). Small ischemic lesions are hard to detect with current acute stroke protocols. TIA and small volume stroke patients, are at an increased risk for recurrent stroke, making immediate diagnosis critical. Because thrombo-embolic sources often cause these strokes, identifying and treating the underlying aetiology has the potential to radically lower the risk of recurrence and improve the outcome of these patients. Objectives: 1) To identify clinical and imaging predictors of recurrent stroke; 2) To improve early detection of small volume stroke with admission computed tomography perfusion (CTP) in patients with suspected acute ischemic stroke with small volume stroke or no ischemia on admission imaging. Study design: Prospective, multicenter cohort study. Study population: All patients who visited the University Medical Center (UMC) Utrecht, the Amsterdam University Medical Centers (Amsterdam UMC), location Academic Medical Center (AMC) or the St. Antonius Hospital and who underwent a CT-scan of the brain within 9 hours after onset of stroke symptoms with an age ≥18 years. Within 36 months, 720 patients will be enrolled in the study. Of these patients, 300 patients will be included for the follow-up magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Main study parameters/endpoints: The main study endpoints are: 1) Stroke recurrence rate at 2 years; 2) Presence and volume of acute ischemic lesions on follow-up diffusion weighted imaging MRI.

Querying Stroke Unit Nursing Interventions in the Emergency Department

StrokeTIA

The aim of the study is to monitor if specialized stroke nurses as team partners in the ED can reduce hospital acquired infections. The study is designed as pre- post-intervention study in which specialized SU nurses partner with ED nursing staff to asses and screen stroke admissions in the ED.

The Establishment and Analysis of the Clinical Prediction Model of Acupuncture and Moxibustion for...

Stroke

Electronic health records of stroke convalescent patients will be selected from the third affiliated hospital of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University from January 2012 to December 2019. Relevant clinical data will be extracted according to case data, and model-based decision tree analysis will be conducted to establish and evaluate the clinical prediction Model.

A Study on the Status of Nutritional Risk Screening and Nutritional Therapy in Neurology Hospitalized...

Acute Stroke

Stroke is the leading cause of premature death and disability, and early recognition and treatment of dysphagia is fundamental to stroke management. Early and full tube feeding in the acute phase of stroke helps to address nutritional problems resulting from dysphagia and impaired consciousness and helps to reduce morbidity and mortality and poor outcomes. Current guidelines for acute stroke management do not address the goal of tube feeding of enteral nutrition for energy and protein. In the treatment of acute stroke, there is a strong global focus on pharmacological thrombolysis or mechanical thrombolysis, with nutritional interventions being a less explored topic. Real-world evidence on large samples, feeding attainment and outcomes, and nutrition in the acute phase of stroke is lacking in China . The aim of this study was to understand the current status of nutritional therapy in stroke hospitalization in neurology and its impact on prognosis nationwide, and to improve the standardized management process of enteral nutrition therapy in the acute phase of stroke.

Non-disabling Ischemic Cerebrovascular Event With Apathy

ApathyMinor Stroke2 more

The burden of non-disabling ischemic cerebrovascular events (NICE) is significantly increased. However, few previous studies have focused on affective impairment after transient ischemic attack (TIA) and minor stroke. Stroke survivors are often described as apathetic. Even though post-stroke apathy (PSA) affects one in three stroke patients,it has not hitherto received much attention. NICE-A is a prospective study aimed to explore the association between baseline apathy and probable incident stroke in a population-based sample of TIA and minor stroke adults.

Rural CT Examination and Thrombolytic Treatment for Stroke

Stroke

To counteract long term sequelae from stroke, ultrarapid diagnosis and treatment, high quality multidiciplinary in-hospital care and optimal long term rehabilitation is required. In this study, the investigators are moving the essential first diagnosis and treatment out into the community close to where the patient live, thus shortening the all important time from debut of symptoms to thrombolytic treatment improving the prognosis of stroke patients.
