Scientists track platelet changes to unlock mysteries of delayed brain injury
NCT ID NCT06375889
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aimed to better understand why some people develop delayed brain damage after a brain aneurysm rupture. Researchers measured platelet activation over time in 90 patients, comparing those with aneurysm bleeds to those with other types of brain bleeds. The goal was to clarify how platelets and blood vessel damage contribute to delayed complications, which could lead to better monitoring or treatments in the future.

Who is studied
We therefore chose to carry out an exhaustive recruitment of the active file of consecutive patients eligible for the study selection criteria. In the Medical ICA and Neurovascular ICU Department of the Pierre Wertheimer Hospital of the Hospices Civils de Lyon, treating patients with sub-aneurysmal meningeal haemorrhage or intraparenchymal haemorrhage. 40 patients in each group

Inclusion Criteria: * Male and Female Adults ≤18 years of age. * Hospitalised in the neurological intensive care unit of the Pierre Wertheimer Hospital of the Hospices Civils de Lyon following an aneurysmal meningeal haemorrhage of any modified Fischer score, previously diagnosed by cerebral CT scan. * Patients admitted to the neurological intensive care unit or the NICU of the Pierre Wertheimer Hospital of the Hospices Civils de Lyon for an intra-parenchymal haematoma. * Patient who has been informed and has formulated his/her non-opposition, or close relative of the patient who has been informed and has formulated his/her non-opposition. * Affiliated to a social security scheme. Exclusion Criteria: * Non-aneurysmal SAH * Ischaemic stroke * Patients with previously known platelet function disorders * Pregnant or breast-feeding women * Patients under legal protection (guardianship, curatorship, safeguard of justice) * Patients under compulsory psychiatric care * Patients taking part in a study which may interfere with the present study
