STROKE ACUTE

This study offered an experimental treatment using donor stem cells given through an IV to people who had a recent (within 9 days) ischemic stroke. The goal was to see if the stem cells could help the brain heal and improve recovery. It was available to adults aged 18 to 80 with …

This study compares a new device called the NeVa Stent Retriever to standard stent retrievers for treating strokes caused by a blocked large artery in the brain. Researchers want to see if the NeVa device is better at restoring blood flow and if it is as safe as the standard devi…

This study tests whether adding a clot-dissolving medicine directly into the brain artery improves outcomes for stroke patients who already had a mechanical procedure to remove a large clot. About 440 adults with acute ischemic stroke will be randomly assigned to receive either t…

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

This study looks at whether stopping overnight neurological checks in stroke patients can help prevent delirium, a state of confusion. Researchers will compare patients who get usual care with those who have overnight checks paused. The goal is to see if less sleep disruption lea…

This study aims to understand how the brain changes after a stroke and how those changes relate to arm recovery. Researchers will use brain scans and electrical recordings from 41 stroke patients to build a model that predicts recovery. The goal is to eventually tailor brain stim…

This study uses artificial intelligence to analyze brain scans and clinical data from over 1,600 stroke patients. The goal is to predict which patients will develop life-threatening brain swelling (malignant edema) after a major stroke. Early detection could help doctors interven…

This study looks at whether a blood test can help doctors figure out when a stroke began, especially for people who wake up with symptoms or don't know the exact time. About 80 adults with stroke symptoms will give a blood sample, which will be checked for certain proteins that c…

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…
