Sedation with collateral support for stroke clot removal
This trial tests a specific sedation approach, along with support during the procedure, for people having emergency clot removal (mechanical thrombectomy) for a certain type of acute ischemic stroke. It may help make the procedure safer and more effective by improving how patients are managed during endovascular treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–110 - NCT02879123Recruiting
Recovery after stroke treatment with a clot-removal procedure
This trial studies how the brain and nervous system recover about 3 months after a clot-removal treatment for an acute ischemic stroke. It may help doctors better understand what recovery looks like after this kind of stroke care.
ParisAges Any age - NCT07279259RecruitingPhase 2
Blood pressure management after stroke clot-dissolving treatment
This trial tests how managing high blood pressure during clot-dissolving treatment for acute ischemic stroke affects recovery. It is for patients who have high blood pressure at the start of treatment.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT06878066RecruitingPhase 3
Clot-busting treatment after stroke while on Factor Xa inhibitor
This trial tests a clot-busting drug (thrombolysis) for people who had a stroke while on a Factor Xa inhibitor blood thinner. It aims to see if the drug can still safely break up the clot and reduce disability.
Aalborg, AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT07749170Recruiting
Stroke treatment for blockages in smaller brain arteries
This study looks at how well a special catheter system works to remove blood clots from smaller arteries in the brain after a stroke. It aims to see if this treatment helps people recover better.
Englewood, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT07764172Recruiting
Sarcopenia in acute ischemic stroke
This study looks at muscle loss (sarcopenia) in people who have had an acute ischemic stroke. It aims to understand how muscle wasting affects recovery, which may help improve care for stroke patients.
MoscowAges 50 years+ - NCT06584565Recruiting
Predicting stroke recovery and risk using blood and stool tests
This study uses advanced analysis of your blood and stool samples to better predict how you will recover from a stroke and whether it might happen again. It aims to help doctors personalize your care after a stroke.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05741905Recruiting
Levofloxacin antibiotic with IV clot-busting for acute stroke
This trial tests whether adding the antibiotic levofloxacin to standard IV clot-busting treatment is safe and improves outcomes after an acute ischemic stroke. It may help by reducing complications related to infection or inflammation, but you must meet specific heart, liver, kidney, and medication-safety rules.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–75 - NCT05799326Recruiting
Levofloxacin after sudden stroke to improve safety and recovery
This trial tests whether the antibiotic levofloxacin can be given soon after an acute ischemic stroke to improve outcomes and monitor side effects. It’s for people with a moderate stroke severity who are not having certain emergency treatments or infections.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–75 - NCT07674329Recruiting
Virtual reality rehab for arm strength after stroke
This trial tests if using virtual reality (VR) exercises early after an ischemic stroke can help improve arm muscle strength, thinking skills, and mood. It is for people who have had a stroke within the last 10 days.
TaipeiAges 18–85 - NCT06059144RecruitingPhase 3
Raising blood pressure for worsening small artery strokes
This trial tests if raising blood pressure slightly with a low dose of a medicine called norepinephrine can help people whose stroke symptoms are getting worse. It focuses on small, deep brain artery strokes and aims to improve recovery.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT07475936Recruiting
