Active clinical trials for "Ischemic Stroke"

The aim of our study is to therapeutic effect and platelet activity after intravenous laser irradiation of blood for ischemic stroke patient

An Exploratory Interventional study to assess the effects of cranioplasty on brain network connectivity, neuropsychological and motor functioning in patients with severe acquired brain injury with pre-, post-cranioplasty and 6 months follow-up assessments.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of rhPro-UK (35mg) versus standard medical treatment in acute mild ischemic stroke within 4.5 hours of symptom onset.

A study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Renexin CR in patients with Acute Non-cardioembolic Ischemic Stroke

In patients with suspected acute stroke due to large vessel occlusion with indication for endovascular treatment, radial access is just as safe, fast, and effective as femoral access, and it improves the entire stroke treatment process.

This study aims to compare the efficacy of a social network intervention versus individual hypertension counseling to improve blood pressure control after stroke. The investigators hope to understand whether the involvement of family, friends and other members of individual's social network can help achieve better blood pressure after experiencing a stroke. Participants will be stratified to two groups according to network size (<5 vs 5 or more) and randomized to receive individual hypertension counseling (control) or the social network intervention. The primary outcome of the study will be the absolute reduction in systolic blood pressure at 3 months follow-up. The secondary outcomes will be attainment of a post-stroke hypertension treatment goal and patient-reported physical function.

Acute stroke afflicts nearly 700,000 patients in the US and is the number 3 cause of death. Only 2-9% of this large number is treated with t-PA if they arrive within 4.5 hours. An equally small percentage of patients with large vessel occlusion undergo thrombectomy. The thrombectomy patients may or may not receive t-PA. Some of these patients rarely receive intravenous GPIIB/IIIa inhibitors. Many lines of evidence suggest that GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors, a class of FDA approved potent platelet inhibitors that have been used extensively along with heparin for acute coronary syndromes (heart attacks) and unstable angina (chest pain), may be safe enough to give in these circumstances.

The objective of the study is to determine the safely of Human Umbilical Cord Blood mononuclear cells by Intravenous injection in acute ischemic stroke patients.

The trial is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of using the Zoom Reperfusion System in subjects diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke and undergoing a thrombectomy procedure within 8 hours of last known well.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue liraglutide in the treatment of acute minor stroke (National Institute of Health stroke scale, NIHSS ≤ 3) or high-risk transient ischemic attack (TIA) (ABCD2 score ≥ 4 ) patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
