Hong KongAges 18–100 - NCT05494034Recruiting
Monitoring heart rhythms after stroke to guide care
This study uses a small implantable heart monitor to track heart rhythm in people after an acute ischemic stroke or TIA. It aims to learn how often hidden heart rhythm problems show up, which could help doctors choose better stroke prevention treatments.
AthensAges 40–100 - NCT06806397Recruiting
Brain imaging study of arm weakness after stroke
This study uses a light-based brain scanner (fNIRS) to understand how stroke affects arm movement. It may help find new ways to improve rehab.
MoscowAges 35–70 - NCT06094478Recruiting
Stroke emergency protocol study
This study tests a hospital stroke protocol to quickly evaluate and manage patients with a stroke caused by a clot (AIS), bleeding in the brain (ICH), or bleeding around the brain (SAH). It may help improve emergency care and outcomes.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT05195658Recruiting
Stent vs standard treatment for acute carotid artery stroke
This trial studies whether placing a special device (a micronet-covered stent) can improve treatment of certain acute strokes caused by blockage at the carotid artery “bifurcation” (where the artery splits). It is meant for people who need an urgent, catheter-based procedure to open the blocked vessel.
KrakowAges 18 years+ - NCT05853796Recruiting
Studying stroke warning signs in young adults
This observational study follows people ages 18–50 who had a first TIA (“mini-stroke”) or an acute ischemic stroke to better understand what happens after the event. It may help improve future care by tracking symptoms, imaging findings, and recovery over time.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 18–50 - NCT06718075Recruiting
Comparing tools to predict stroke risk after a mini-stroke
This study looks at two ways to estimate your chance of having a stroke after a transient ischemic attack (a mini-stroke). You will be asked some questions, and your risk will be calculated using both methods. The goal is to see which tool is more accurate for patients like you.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT05155137RecruitingPhase 3
Daily pill and home risk check to prevent stroke and memory loss
This Phase 3 trial tests whether a daily “polypill” plus a simple home risk-check plan can lower the chance of stroke and future thinking/memory problems. It is aimed at adults at moderate risk but who have not had stroke or heart disease before.
Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do SulAges 50–75 - NCT07453940Enrolling by invitation
Closing off heart pouch with or without pulsed energy in atrial fibrillation
This study tests if adding a special energy treatment (pulsed field ablation) to a standard heart pouch closure is safe and works better for people with persistent atrial fibrillation who have few symptoms but a high risk of stroke.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07407790Recruiting
Smartphone heart check after stroke
This study tests whether using a smartphone app to check your heart rhythm after a stroke can find hidden atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). If you had a recent stroke or TIA and are not already on blood thinners, you may be able to help doctors detect and prevent future strokes.
KristiansandAges 18 years+ - NCT04945174Recruiting
Stroke prevention program with exercise and education
This trial tests a structured “stroke school” program that includes supervised physical activity, education, and follow-up coaching to help reduce future stroke and heart problems. It may help people with minor stroke or a TIA who don’t need rehabilitation but do need safer ways to be more active.
Copenhagen, HerlevAges 18 years+ - NCT06984965Recruiting
Using EEG to Distinguish Types of Stroke
This study uses an EEG (a cap that records brain waves) to help tell the difference between two types of stroke: ischemic (caused by a clot) and hemorrhagic (caused by bleeding). It may help doctors choose the right treatment faster for patients who have a stroke.
