ACUTE STROKE

This study tests a new device and technique (ADAPT 2.0) for removing blood clots in people having an acute ischemic stroke. The goal is to see if it can restore blood flow more completely and safely than current methods. About 750 adults who are already scheduled for clot removal…

This study tests a nurse-led program called BEST CARE ICTUS_HC for adults hospitalized with acute stroke in hospitals without specialized stroke units. The program includes staff training, swallowing tests, and environmental adaptations to help with attention and safety. Research…

This study tests a drug called DM199 in about 728 people who have had a moderate stroke and cannot get clot-removing treatments. The drug is given through a vein and then as shots under the skin for three weeks. Researchers want to see if it helps patients recover better than a p…

This study tests whether giving stroke patients a personalized diet plan within two days can lower the risk of death within 30 days. About 3,084 adults with moderate to severe stroke will take part. Dietitians will track food intake and adjust nutrition, using supplements or tube…

This study compares two types of general anesthesia during emergency clot removal for stroke patients. The goal is to see which method better maintains blood flow to the brain and improves recovery. About 90 adults with severe stroke will take part at two hospitals in Los Angeles…

This Phase 3 trial tests whether the drug Dimephosphon can improve recovery in people who have had an acute ischemic stroke. About 184 adults aged 35-80 will receive either Dimephosphon or a placebo within 24-72 hours of their stroke. The main goal is to see if more patients achi…

This study tests whether a laryngeal ultrasound can evaluate vocal cord movement in people who recently had a stroke. Researchers will follow 200 participants for one year to see who develops choking or aspiration pneumonia. The goal is to find a non-invasive way to identify high…

This study tests whether a wearable robot can help people who recently had a stroke recover movement in their legs and improve balance and walking. The robot provides intensive therapy to the ankle, which is often affected. The trial involves 140 participants who had a stroke wit…

This study tests whether focusing on individual muscles or groups of muscles works better for helping people regain arm function after a stroke. Forty acute stroke patients will receive either isolated muscle training with biofeedback or synergetic (group) muscle training, plus s…

This study tests whether mirror therapy, added to standard physical therapy, improves hand and arm function in people who recently had a stroke. 44 adults with acute stroke will be randomly assigned to receive either mirror therapy plus physiotherapy or physiotherapy alone for on…

This study compares how well stroke neurologists and a deep learning AI model predict recovery in 250 stroke patients. Researchers will track actual disability at 24 hours and 3 months, then compare those results to predictions made by doctors and the AI. The goal is to understan…

This study is analyzing blood samples from 500 people who recently had a stroke and comparing them to healthy volunteers. Researchers are looking for specific RNA molecules that could serve as biomarkers to detect stroke and predict how well patients will recover. The goal is to …

This study collects data from 336 adults aged 18-85 who had an acute ischemic stroke and received a new clot-busting drug called non-immune staphylokinase. Researchers will check how often bleeding in the brain occurs and compare results to the standard drug alteplase. The goal i…

This study is looking at whether simple body measurements, like muscle size and body composition, can help predict how well someone will recover after a stroke. Researchers will measure the thickness and size of a specific muscle in the head and use a special scale to check body …

This study looks at whether a tool called the Modified SOAR score can help doctors predict which stroke patients are at higher risk of dying soon after they are admitted to the hospital. Researchers will follow 60 adults with acute stroke at Sohag University Hospitals, collecting…

This study aims to create an AI system that predicts which type of rehabilitation—like standard therapy, electrical stimulation, robotic training, or acupuncture—will help each stroke survivor recover the most movement in their arm. Researchers will collect data from 400 stroke s…

This study tests whether a special blood pressure cuff (Doctormate) can be used during helicopter transport to protect brain tissue in people having a severe stroke. Ten patients with large vessel occlusion will receive remote limb ischemic conditioning (RLIC) while being flown t…

This study is building a large registry of people who have had a stroke and still have symptoms. The goal is to connect them with researchers studying new ways to improve recovery. No treatments or tests are given—just observation and data collection.
