Osmotic treatment for severe bleeding around the brain
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial looks at an “osmotic therapy” (a treatment meant to pull fluid away from swelling areas) for adults with severe bleeding around the brain caused by a burst aneurysm. It may help reduce dangerous swelling or complications, but your eligibility depends on your stability and lab results.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older
- Your brain bleeding was caused by an aneurysm (aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage)
- Your condition is classified as Hunt-Hess grade 3 to 5 (more severe)
- You have not had brain decompression surgery before
- Your care team has not described cerebrospinal fluid leak or drainage that disqualifies you

This trial tests whether giving tranexamic acid (a medicine that helps clots stay stable) along with intensive blood pressure lowering can reduce bleeding in the brain and improve recovery. It is for people who arrive at the hospital very quickly after a hemorrhagic stroke.
This study compares a special IV fluid (Multiple Electrolytes Injection) with normal saline to see which one better prevents high chloride levels in people with severe brain bleeds. It aims to improve recovery and reduce side effects.
This study tests whether starting blood pressure treatment soon after surgery or coiling for a brain aneurysm can improve recovery. It is for people who had a bleeding stroke from a ruptured aneurysm and are in the hospital for treatment.
This trial studies whether giving a specific type of IV fluid (a salt-water fluid in the vein) after a type of brain bleed can improve neurological recovery. It focuses on adults with a non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (a bleeding in the space around the brain) given soon after diagnosis.
This study tests whether a hyperosmolar agent (a substance that draws fluid out of the brain) can reduce swelling and pressure inside the skull in adults with severe traumatic brain injury. The pressure is monitored using ultrasound of the optic nerve, and the goal is to find a safe and effective way to lower it.
This trial tests a blood pressure management strategy for patients in the ICU after a bleeding stroke caused by a brain aneurysm. It aims to see if carefully controlling blood pressure can help prevent a dangerous tightening of blood vessels in the brain.
