Oxygen Levels for Stroke Patients Having Clot Removal
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether giving a specific level of oxygen during a procedure to remove a stroke clot improves recovery. It is for people with a moderate to severe stroke in the front part of the brain, treated within 24 hours of symptoms starting.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- Your stroke must be caused by a blockage in the front part of the brain (anterior circulation) and confirmed by a scan.
- Your stroke symptoms must be moderate to severe, with a score of 6–20 on the NIHSS scale.
- The study needs to start within 24 hours of your stroke symptoms beginning.
- You must not have certain conditions (like anemia, lung disease, recent infection, or use of daily oxygen at home) that could affect the results.

This trial tests whether giving high-concentration oxygen (normobaric oxygen) during transfer to a hospital that can remove a blood clot can help people with acute ischemic stroke. It is for patients who are being transferred specifically for endovascular therapy (EVT) to remove a large clot in the brain.
This trial compares a procedure to remove a blood clot from a brain artery (endovascular therapy) with standard medicines alone, for people who had a large-vessel stroke more than 24 hours ago (up to 30 days). It aims to see if the procedure can still help improve recovery even after this longer time window, especially if symptoms are fluctuating or worsening.
This trial tests a method called direct ischemic conditioning, which is a gentle way to prepare your brain to better handle the return of blood flow after a stroke. It is for people who have had a large artery blockage in the front part of the brain and have already had a successful procedure to reopen the artery.
This trial tests whether a specific head-down position before a clot removal procedure improves outcomes for people with a large vessel occlusion stroke. It is for patients who have a confirmed blockage and can wait a short time before the procedure.
This trial tests if hyperbaric oxygen therapy (breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber) can help people recover better after having a stroke caused by a large clot in the front part of the brain. It is for people who recently had a clot removal procedure and have some remaining disability but are still awake and aware.
This study tests whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy (breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber) can help recovery after emergency clot-removal surgery for large blood vessel strokes. The goal is to see if extra oxygen can reduce brain damage and improve outcomes.
