Overview

This study aims to investigate that neural activity of higher cognitve function of human brain with hyperflexible neural electrode-cortex

Description

In this study, patients who need intracerebral puncture and indwelling drainage tube, such as intracerebral hemorrhage and hydrocephalus, will be recruited. Before implanting electrodes, patients will be trained to do higher cognitive function tasks.During operation, electrode will be implanted accompanied by placing drainage tube. After operation, patients will perform tasks, while electrophysiological signals will be collected. At the end of study, electrode will be removed.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. aged 18-70 years old.
  2. have selective or confine operation indications:spontaneous basal ganglia hemorrhage or lobar hemorrhage that need catheter aspiration and drainage;hydrocephalus that need V-P shunt; need placing ommaya.
  3. GCS score 12-15; must be able to communicate with investigators in Mandarin and comply with study requirements.
  4. volunteered to participate in this study and sign informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. have severe cognitive dysfunction.
  2. have psychiatric disorders, such as depression, anxiety disorders and schizophrenia.
  3. long-term use of special medications, such as hormones, immunosuppressant, and anticoagulants.
  4. be allergic to surgery instruments or medications.
  5. have general anesthesia, surgery contraindications.
  6. have acute cardiac infarction or heart arrest within 6 months.
  7. have other neurosurgery contraindications assessed by investigators.
  8. lactation or pregnancy.
  9. have serious systemic disease or organ dysfunctions that affects study outcome or visits.
  10. participate in other ongoing clinical trials.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
