Stroke in patients with decreased consciousness or headaches
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at patients who come to the emergency room with symptoms like confusion, severe headaches, or dizziness. The goal is to learn more about strokes (blocked or bleeding blood vessels in the brain) in these patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are arriving at the emergency room with symptoms like decreased consciousness, severe headaches, or dizziness.
- You are not pregnant.

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 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.
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 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 studies treatments to help people regain consciousness after an intracerebral hemorrhage (a bleeding stroke inside the brain). It focuses on adults who are unresponsive to commands within 48 hours, likely from certain bleeding locations, and who meet specific safety and language requirements.
This study looks at the link between stroke, delirium (sudden confusion), and long-term thinking problems. It tests whether EEG and MRI scans can help predict who may have trouble thinking clearly after a first stroke.
