Study brain-heart signals in acute stroke using MRI
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how the brain and heart interact right after an acute ischemic stroke. It may help doctors better understand what happens in the first hours of stroke and improve monitoring or future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can sign a consent form and agree to join the study
- You are between 18 and 85 years old
- You were admitted for an acute ischemic stroke within 12 hours of when symptoms started
- Your stroke diagnosis must be confirmed on an MRI scan using diffusion imaging
- You are able to safely have an MRI scan
- If you could be pregnant, you must have a negative pregnancy test

This study uses brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans to look at changes in the brain after a stroke. It may help researchers better understand what happens in the brain over time and improve future care.
This study follows people 18 and older who have had a specific type of heart attack (STEMI). It aims to better understand them using a heart MRI scan, which may help improve how these patients are evaluated and cared for.
This study looks for biological and imaging markers that may predict heart/vascular outcomes after an ischemic stroke. You may join if you are eligible for standard stroke treatment and can complete planned follow-up and MRI scans.
This study uses a special heart MRI to look for scarring in the upper chambers of the heart (atria) that might cause hidden atrial fibrillation after a stroke with no known cause. It may help explain why the stroke happened and guide future treatment.
This study looks at how the nervous system's automatic functions (like heart rate and blood pressure) change after a stroke. It uses MRI scans and blood tests to find patterns that might help doctors better understand and treat these changes.
This trial is testing a new type of MRI machine (field-cycling MRI) to see if it can give better images of the brain right after a stroke. It's for people with moderate to severe stroke symptoms who can have an MRI within 24 hours.
