Intracranial vasospasm

This trial tests whether a non-invasive device that stimulates the vagus nerve through the ear can reduce harmful spasms in brain arteries that often occur days after an aneurysm rupture. The study will enroll 10 adults who have had this type of bleeding in the brain and will rec…

This study tests whether giving the drug milrinone directly into the brain's arteries, followed by a 72-hour IV drip, can prevent brain damage in people who develop artery spasms after a bleeding stroke from a burst aneurysm. The trial will enroll 306 adults across multiple hospi…

This study is tracking how well a device called NeVa VS works to open narrowed brain arteries in people who had a bleeding aneurysm. The device is already approved for this use, and researchers want to see how it performs in routine care. About 200 adults will be followed to meas…

This study tests whether injecting the drug nicardipine into the spinal fluid can improve recovery in people who develop blood vessel spasms after a brain aneurysm bleed. About 396 adults aged 18–80 will receive either the drug or a sham procedure. The goal is to see if the treat…

This study looks at whether levels of nitric oxide in spinal fluid can predict dangerous blood vessel spasms after a type of brain bleed called subarachnoid hemorrhage. Researchers will compare nitric oxide levels in 40 patients with and without this condition. The goal is to fin…

This study is building a huge database of up to 800,000 Korean patients with heart or brain vascular disease. By tracking their health over many years, researchers hope to understand the unique patterns and risk factors in this population. The goal is to create a platform that ca…

This study collects blood, clots, and tissue from up to 1000 people having procedures for stroke or other blood vessel problems in the brain. Researchers will analyze these samples to find biological markers and understand inflammation. The goal is to learn more about how stroke …

This study tests a special microscope attachment called GLOW800 that helps surgeons see blood flow and tissues in real time during brain and reconstructive surgery. About 29 adults will take part, and surgeons will rate how well the tool works. The goal is to confirm the device i…

This early study is testing whether a robot can help doctors perform delicate brain blood vessel procedures, such as angiography, embolization, and thrombectomy. Ten patients scheduled for these standard procedures will have them done using a robotic system instead. The main goal…

This study observes 200 adults who had a bleeding stroke from a brain aneurysm and now have narrowed blood vessels. Researchers will monitor brain blood flow using ultrasound to see how it changes with standard treatments like raising blood pressure or using medication to widen v…
