STROKE, ACUTE

This study aims to understand how the brain changes after a stroke to predict how well a person's arm will recover. Researchers will use brain scans and tests to track recovery over a year. For some participants, they will also test if a mild, non-invasive brain stimulation treat…

This large study is testing if adding a clot-busting drug directly into the brain's arteries right after a mechanical clot removal procedure helps people recover better from a major stroke. It will involve 440 patients who have just had the mechanical procedure. The main goal is …

This study looks back at medical records to compare how well and how safely two different devices work to remove large blood clots causing a stroke. It involves 800 adults who had a severe stroke due to a major blocked artery. The goal is to see if the newer NeVa device is as goo…

This study is testing a new type of arm exercise therapy for people who have had a recent stroke. The goal is to help prevent a common problem called 'flexion synergy,' which makes it very hard to reach outward with the affected arm. About 86 participants will receive either the …

This study aims to develop a computer program that can predict which patients who have had a major stroke will develop a life-threatening complication called malignant brain edema. Researchers will use machine learning to analyze brain scans and patient data from over 1,500 peopl…

This study aims to see if a simple blood test can tell doctors when a stroke began. This is crucial because many patients wake up with stroke symptoms and don't know the start time, which can prevent them from getting time-sensitive treatments. Researchers will measure five diffe…

This study is testing whether artificial intelligence (AI) can help emergency call operators identify potential stroke victims more accurately and quickly. It uses data from past stroke patients, including their emergency call recordings and hospital records, to train the AI syst…

This study is testing whether artificial intelligence (AI) can help emergency call center operators identify life-threatening situations more quickly and accurately. Researchers will analyze data from 5 million past emergency calls about chest pain, stroke, breathing trouble, and…

This study aims to see if stopping routine overnight neurological checks for stable stroke patients can help prevent delirium. The researchers believe that allowing patients to sleep through the night without interruptions might reduce confusion and improve recovery. They will co…
