Early Body Temperature Targets and Relationship With Prognosis in Patients With Heat Stroke
The goal of this observational study is to explore the optimal target body temperature in first 24 hours and the relationship between body temperature and adverse outcomes of heat stroke. The main questions it aims to answer are: the optimal target body temperature at 0.5 h, 2 h, and the …
Change in Stroke Volume Index After Diuresis for Patients With Decompensated Heart Failure
This is a prospective cohort study for 50 patients admitted to the cardiac care unit requiring clinically-indicated diuretic therapy for congestive heart failure. The purpose of this study is to assess the role of non-invasive cardiac output monitoring (NICOM) with the Starling Fluid Management System (Baxter Medical, Deerfield, IL) in …
Blood Biomarkers to Predict the Prognosis of a Stroke Patient Undergoing Mechanical Thrombectomy
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the accuracy of a panel of blood biomarkers and clinical variables in predicting the prognosis of stroke patients treated by mechanical thrombectomy, specifically to predict futile recanalization and mortality.
Microclots and Neutrophil Activation as Potential Indicators for Stroke Risk and Reperfusion Failure
Stroke remains a major health burden worldwide. Many patients are severely disabled and stay in need of care. Mechanical thrombectomy has dramatically improved outcomes for stroke patients with large vessel occlusions, yet 40-50% of patients with successful recanalization remain severely disabled despite successful recanalization, a scenario called "futile recanalization". One …
Reliability, Validity and Responsiveness of Short Form 36 (SF-36) Questionnaire in Stroke Survivors
The type of the study is an observational study to test in stroke survivors. The main questions it aims to answer are What is a Burmese version, content validity, convergent validity, divergent validity, and reliability of SF-36 questionnaire in stroke survivors? Does the Burmese version of SF-36 have the responsiveness …
Prevalence of Attributable Etiology and Modifiable Stroke Risk Factors in Patients With Covert Brain Infarctions
The CBI registry is a prospective, interdisciplinary, multimodal observational registry of patients with covert brain infarction. Methods: A standardized workup in analogy to manifest ischemic stroke including cerebral MRI, long-term rhythm monitoring (3 x 7 days ECG), echocardiography, laboratory work-up and risk factor assessment as well as noninvasive angiography of …
Variability of Healthy People and People After Stroke Results in the Box and Block Test
Main aim of the study is to find out how many attempts of each subtest in the Box and Block Test should be done in clinical practice during testing people after stroke who are 20-64 years old.
Implementation of Onsite Rapid CYP2C19 Assay for Genotype Guided Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Acute Ischemic Stroke
The goal of this observational study is to use a genetic test to help doctors prescribe the most effective medications after a patient has a stroke. One type of stroke is caused by a blood clot in brain vessels. After a patient has this kind of stroke, they are often …
Statins in Frail Older Patients with Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack - the Prospective Cohort Study
Two Dutch guidelines (Stroke and Cardiovascular Risk Management) provide conflicting advice on optimal statin treatment in older patients. In the SAFEST-cohort, the investigators will assess the impact of continuing versus discontinuing a statin in frail individuals aged 70 and above with a recent ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) …
Evolution of the Patient's Perception of the Use of the Upper Limb After a Stroke During Intensive Rehabilitation
This study is being carried out in the context of rehabilitation after stroke, where persistent upper limb weakness is a major challenge. It aims to explore the relationship between observed function and patients' perceived participation in use.
