Active clinical trials for "Ischemic Stroke"

The goal of this interventional study is to learn about the clinical outcomes of acute ischemic stroke treated with mechanical thrombectomy resulting in a selective ischemia of the basal ganglia. The main question it aims to answer is: • defining the prevalence and clinical features of possible cognitive, motor and sleep disfuncions occuring after acute ischemic stroke treated with thrombectomy Participants will be tested for cognitive, movement and sleep disorders in the acute phase and successively in the long term follow-up.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the limb functional improvement after contralateral C7 root transfer in stroke patients.

To evaluate the feasibility of Emergency Medical System (EMS)-performed cPOCUS in the field for diagnosis of acute Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)

The study will make an association between the diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine that establishes that the syndrome of blood stagnation generates alteration in blood flow, vascular dysfunction, and damage to the endothelium. This process is like what occurs in a stroke. It will use electroacupuncture to change this chronic inflammatory process, and to know the effects and efficacy of this technique in the regulation and modulation of to treat extensive inflammatory diseases. However, this inflammatory response must be associated with serum cholesterol levels, since they are associated with a stroke between the LDL-C/HDL-C ratio and the prognosis after a stroke.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effect of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9 inhibitors) in acute ischemic stroke patients associated with atherosclerosis by investigating the change in lipid profile compared to baseline results the effects on prognosis of stroke The participants will be given PCSK9 inhibitor right after confirmation of acute ischemic stroke, and the investigators will compare the results to the control group, whom are acute ischemic stroke patients treated with conventional lipid lowering therapy, statin and/or ezetimibe.

Identify the factors associated with a favorable clinical outcome in participants with acute ischemic stroke and large core infarcts within 24 hours of onset who are treated with endovascular intervention.

This comparative effectiveness trial (CET) in children with suspected focal cerebral arteriopathy (FCA) presenting with arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) or transient ischemic attack (TIA) will compare the use of early corticosteroid treatment (Arm A) versus delayed/no corticosteroid treatment (Arm B). Delayed corticosteroid treatment is given only for those demonstrating disease progression and is initiated as soon as the progression is detected (at any time after randomization). All participants will also receive standard of care therapy (aspirin and supportive care). Sites will randomize participants 1:1 to Arm A or B. Participants will be enrolled and randomized as soon as possible after their stroke/TIA up until 96 hours following the initial stroke/TIA event.

The goal of this clinical trials is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness for the RapidPulseTM Aspiration System in patients experiencing acute ischemic stroke within 8 hours of symptom onset or last seen normal. Subjects will undergo mechanical thrombectomy (a procedure to remove a clot in the brain which is preventing blood flow), with the RapidPulseTM Aspiration System. Participation in the trial is for 90 days.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of early administration of tirofiban in patients treated with tenecteplase for acute ischemic stroke.

The objective of this study is to create a comprehensive, real-world, multi-center observational registry of consecutive patients admitted to hospitals with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) caused by large vessel occlusions (LVO), who are treated with either endovascular therapy (EVT) or the best available medical management (BMM).
