Active clinical trials for "Subarachnoid Hemorrhage"

The purpose of this study is to determine whether 7.2% NaCl in 6% hydroxyethyl starch will lower intracranial pressure (ICP) in SAH-patients with normal or moderately elevated ICP in a placebo controlled study, and to describe the haemodynamic effects.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the antipyretic effect of bromocriptine in critically-ill patients with acute neurologic injury and fever from infectious and non-infectious etiologies.

This is a single site, randomized, sham-controlled, double blinded pilot study assessing the feasibility, safety, tolerability, and efficacy of non-invasive VNS (nVNS), gammaCore, in the treatment of headache in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). 40 participants will be enrolled, 20 in the active device arm and 20 in the sham arm. The primary efficacy outcome is the the difference between the active and sham treatment groups in morphine equivalence dosage.

Temporary hypercapnia leads to a reproducible increase of cerebral blood flow (CBF) and brain tissue oxygenation (StiO2) as shown in a previous study (Trial-Identification: NCT01799525). The aim of this study now was to measure the course of carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO2) reactivity after prolonged hypercapnia, and to evaluate the therapeutic effect of graded hypercapnia.

The goal of this pilot randomized trial is to compare the effect of Multiple Electrolytes Injection Ⅱand saline on the occurrence of hyperchloremia within 72h of randomization in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage(aSAH). A secondary aim was to provide data for the design and power of a large-scale, multicenter, randomized controlled trial.

The design of the present study will be a multicenter prospective observational protocol. Approximately 100 patients will be recruited over the 24-month period with Acute Brain Injury (trauma brain injury, intracerebral hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage, ischemic stroke), who in their acute phase of intensive care unit require placement of a catheter capable of monitoring intracranial pressure (intra parenchymal catheter or external ventricular shunt). In addition to all the intensive care provided by the most recent guidelines, patients will undergo measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter through ultrasonography. At least, three measurements will be performed within the first 3 hours after admission, within the first 24-48 hours, and at each invasive intracranial pressure value greater than 18 cmH2O. Those patients with intracranial pressure values greater than 35 mmHg. At the first intracranial pressure measurement, patients with eyeball disease or trauma will be excluded. Measurements will be performed following the CLOSED bundle. Analysis of the results will include correlation between the invasive pressure values and the mean value of optic nerve sheath diameter measurements in the two projections (sagittal and transverse). In addition, the correlation of the absolute value of invasive pressure detected with the ratio of the optic nerve sheath diameter measurement to the eyeball diameter measured always ultrasound will be sought.

This is a Phase 1, single center, randomized, two-period crossover study in healthy male and female subjects designed to evaluate the relative bioavailability (BA) and safety at steady state of two formulations of nimodipine: GTX 104 (nimodipine for intravenous [IV] infusion; test formulation) and nimodipine oral capsules, RS (reference formulation).

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of the study drug--Galantamine-on patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The study will examine how patients with SAH will tolerate the study drug and how it may improve brain functioning in patients after SAH.

This research study seeks to explore the effects of massage techniques on pain and anxiety relief among patients with subarachnoid hemorrhages in the ICU setting in comparison to subarachnoid hemorrhagic patients using standard medical therapy. In addition, our aim is to decrease the overall medication use to treat pain and anxiety, and to determine the impact of massage on sleep duration, quality, and breathing. Our goal is to improve and promote comfort during the ICU stay as well as decrease the need for narcotic medication usage.

The study's main objective will be to assess which effect early initiated rehabilitation has on the frequency of complications and the level of physical and cognitive functioning after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). To this end the following aspects will be investigated: The frequency of complications (with special emphasis on pulmonary complications,thromboembolic events, cerebral vasospasm, unintended discontinuation of drains and lines) Length of stay in hospitals and socio-economic impact Physical and cognitive function in the early and chronic phase after SAH Health-related quality of life and participation in society in the chronic phase
