Observational Dutch Young Symptomatic StrokE studY - nEXT
BACKGROUND: Worldwide, 2 million patients aged 18-50 years suffer an ischemic stroke each year with an increasing trend over the past decade due to yet unknown reasons. Whereas prognosis and antithrombotic treatment in older patients with cardiovascular disease are among the best studied topics in clinical medicine, this does not …
COAgulation Disorders in Ischaemic and Haemorrhagic Stroke
In this study the investigators will assess both procoagulant and anticoagulant pathways using thrombin generation and platelet function tests; as well as neuronal ischemia using cell free DNA in all patients presenting with ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke (including aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorraghe). Also the cross-talk between inflammation and thrombosis, so-called thrombo-inflammation …
MR Evidence of Cardiac Inflammation Post-Stroke
The present study is an investigator initiated, single-centre, prospective, proof-of-concept cohort study aiming to enroll 44 patients with acute middle cerebral artery (MCA) ischemic stroke, involving the right (n=22) and left (n=22) MCA territories and 24 control patients with acute focal neurological symptoms but no evidence of acute brain infarct …
Blood Pressure Variability and Ischemic Stroke Outcome
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the role of blood pressure (BPV) variability in patients suffering from acute ischemic stroke. The main questions it aims to answer are: To determine the association of BPV with functional/cognitive outcome after ischemic stroke. To determine a pathophysiologic mechanism of BPV's …
The Natural History of Recovery After Stroke
The goal of this longitudinal observational study is to learn the course of recovery after stroke. Specifically, in this study we will learn and describe the changes in cognitive, motor and sensory function over time in stroke patients.
The Value of EEG in Stroke Units
Τhe aim of the study is to investigate the role of EEG both in predicting epileptogenesis in patients with acute stroke and in detecting and clarifying the clinical significance of subclinical epileptic seizures in a stroke unit. More specifically, the performance of routine EEG in patients with ischemic or hemorrhagic …
Characterising the Neuromuscular Function of Post Stroke Patients
Strokes are a leading cause of death and disability in developed countries, with significant economic and social impacts. Defined by the WHO, strokes cause rapid and lasting disturbances in cerebral function. In the UK, strokes occur every five minutes, affecting 100,000 people annually and resulting in substantial physical impairments and …
DELTA (Detecting and Predicting Atrial Fibrillation in Post-Stroke Patients)
Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is an abnormal heart rhythm. Because AF is often asymptomatic, it often remains undiagnosed in the early stages. Anticoagulant therapy greatly reduces the risks of stroke in patients diagnosed with AF. However, diagnosis of AF requires long-term ambulatory monitoring procedures that are burdensome and/or expensive. Smart devices …
Extracellular Vesicles and Dysregulated Coagulation in the Prediction of Stroke
Annually 100,000 strokes occur, placing stroke as the largest cause of disability in the UK. 90% of strokes are preventable, leading to national focus on programmes including "The National Stroke Programme" to act on preventing, treating, and improving post-stroke care. Importantly, over 25% of ischaemic stroke sufferers have previously had …
Vagal Nerve Stimulation in Enhanced Stroke Recovery: The VALOR Registry
Vagal Nerve Stimulation is a novel proven therapy for patients with chronic ischemic stroke. The primary objective of this registry is to assess the safety of vagal nerve stimulation for stroke recovery through monitoring the occurrence of serious adverse events associated with the surgical procedure or subsequent paired rehabilitation protocol. …
