This trial uses advanced data analysis to help doctors in the emergency room better predict and treat neurological problems like stroke or brain injury. It aims to improve care for all adults who come to the ER with these issues.
This study uses EEG (a harmless brain wave test) to monitor stroke patients in the hospital. It aims to learn more about brain activity after a stroke, which could help improve care.
This study uses a special EEG test to measure brain activity in people who are not fully conscious after a recent brain injury. The goal is to find better ways to know if someone will wake up and recover thinking abilities.
This trial is testing a portable EEG device (a non-invasive cap that measures brain activity) to help ambulance staff quickly determine if a patient is having a stroke. It aims to speed up diagnosis and care for people with suspected stroke symptoms.
This trial is testing whether a routine EEG (brain wave test) can help spot delirium early in older adults admitted to the ICU or oncology unit. Delirium causes sudden confusion, and finding it faster could lead to better care.
This trial studies whether remote heart monitoring after an ER visit for fainting (syncope) can help identify dangerous heart problems. You may be enrolled only if your fainting episode seems medium- to high-risk and you’re being sent home from the ER.
