Endarterectomy Versus Stenting in Patients With Symptomatic Severe Carotid Stenosis - 2
Carotid stenosis caused by atherosclerosis is a significant risk factor for ischemic stroke, accounting for up to 15% of all strokes and transient ischemic attacks. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) have demonstrated the benefits of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in reducing stroke risk in patients with severe symptomatic carotid stenosis. Carotid artery …
Effect of Butyphthalide on Cognitive Level Change After Cerebral Vascular Event-a Randomized Control Trial (Be-CLEVER)
Post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) refers to a clinical syndrome characterized by cognitive impairment that occurs after a stroke event and persists for at least 24 weeks. Due to the early recovery of conditions such as delirium and transient cognitive impairment after stroke, the diagnosis of PSCI often requires cognitive assessment …
Cilostazol vs. Aspirin in Acute Non-cardioembolic Stroke With Cerebral mIcrobleeds
The purpose of this clinical trial is to demonstrate that cilostazol is non-inferior to aspirin in terms of efficacy and safety for the secondary prevention of stroke in patients with acute non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke who have concurrent microbleeds. Researchers will compare the medication cilostazol with aspirin to assess its efficacy …
ACT-GLOBAL Adaptive Platform Trial for Stroke
Stroke is causing 6.6 million deaths and is a major cause of disability worldwide in 2019. There remains an urgent need for interventions that improve outcomes which can be implemented with wide applicability for stroke. ACT-GLOBAL is a multi-factorial, multi-arm, multi-stage, randomised, global adaptive platform trial for stroke, aiming to …
Rehabilitation With and Without Robot and Allied Digital Technologies in Stroke Patients
Rehabilitation after stroke often employs Robot and Allied Digital Technologies (RADTs), yet evidence on their effectiveness remains inconclusive due to study heterogeneity and limited sample sizes. This multicentre randomized controlled pragmatic trial aims at comprehensively and accurately assessing the effectiveness of rehabilitation mediated by RADTs after a stroke, compared to …
Motor-Cognitive Interactive Upper Limb Robot Rehabilitation for Post-Stroke Motor Dysfunction
This study aims to investigate the effects of motor-cognitive interactive robot-assisted training on improving upper limb motor dysfunction after stroke. By observing different combinations of motor and cognitive components in the training, the study will clarify the relationship between the proportion of motor and cognitive elements and the recovery of …
Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Sovateltide in Patients With Acute Cerebral Ischemic Stroke
Extensive research is being conducted in search of neuroprotective agents for possible use in the acute phase of stroke and agents that can be used for neurorepair in later stages of stroke. Several trials have been conducted and are in progress using different pharmacological agents, but none of the studies …
Comparison of Anti-coagulation and Anti-Platelet Therapies for Intracranial Vascular Atherostenosis
The primary goal of the trial is to determine if the experimental arms (rivaroxaban or ticagrelor or both) are superior to the clopidogrel arm for lowering the 1-year rate of ischemic stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage, or vascular death.
GORE® CARDIOFORM Septal Occluder and Antiplatelet Medical Management for Reduction of Recurrent Stroke in Patients With Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO): the REDUCE Post Approval Study
This study will assess the safety and effectiveness of GORE® CARDIOFORM Septal Occluder in a post approval setting and evaluate the quality of operator education and training and transferability of trial experience to a post-market setting.
Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion Versus Novel Oral Anticoagulation for Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is progressively common, and increases the risk of stroke five-fold. Oral anticoagulation is the mainstay therapy; however, it increases the risk of bleeding. Moreover, 30% with AF and at risk of stroke are not in relevant anticoagulation. The randomized PROTECT-AF trial has demonstrated the superiority of left …
