STROKE, ACUTE

This study tests whether giving a clot-dissolving medicine directly into the brain artery, right after mechanical clot removal, helps people recover better from a severe stroke. About 440 adults with large-vessel blockage will be randomly assigned to get the extra drug or not. Th…

This study tested a one-time intravenous infusion of donor stem cells in people who had a recent ischemic stroke (within 9 days). The goal was to see if the cells could help the brain heal and improve recovery. Participants were adults aged 18 to 80 with a moderate stroke in a sp…

This study compares a new device called the NeVa Stent Retriever to standard devices for treating strokes caused by large blood clots in the brain. Researchers want to see if the NeVa device is better at reopening blocked arteries and if it is as safe as the standard devices. The…

This study tests a special arm exercise program for people who recently had a stroke and have trouble reaching outward. 86 participants will do either the new exercise or standard therapy during rehab and be followed for a year. The goal is to see if the exercise helps reduce arm…

This study looks at whether a blood test can help doctors figure out when a stroke began. This is important because about 1 in 5 people wake up with stroke symptoms and don't know the exact start time, which can prevent them from getting clot-busting drugs. Researchers will take …

This study tracks brain changes in 41 recent stroke patients to see if certain brain signals can predict how well their arm will recover. Researchers use brain scans and electrical recordings to build a model that could guide personalized brain stimulation therapy. The goal is to…

This study tests whether artificial intelligence (AI) can help emergency call operators recognize stroke symptoms more accurately than current methods. Researchers will analyze 1,000 emergency calls to see if AI can speed up stroke detection and get patients to the hospital faste…

This study uses artificial intelligence to analyze brain scans and clinical data from stroke patients. The goal is to predict which patients will develop severe brain swelling, a life-threatening complication. By catching it early, doctors may be able to intervene sooner and impr…

This study looks at whether stopping overnight neurological checks in stroke patients can help prevent delirium, a common complication. Researchers will compare delirium rates in patients who have checks stopped versus those who continue standard care. The goal is to see if reduc…
