Predicting stroke risk after a mini-stroke or clot stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how well certain scores predict the risk of another mini-stroke, stroke, or death after a mini-stroke or certain type of stroke. If you qualify, you will help doctors better understand these risks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You had a mini-stroke (TIA) or a stroke caused by a blood clot (ischemic stroke).
- If you had a clot stroke, you did NOT receive a clot-busting medicine.
- Your stroke was not caused by bleeding in the brain.
- You were not transferred from another hospital.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies tiny particles in your blood (called extracellular vesicles) to understand and predict stroke risk after a TIA (a temporary stroke-like episode). It may help doctors identify who is at higher risk using blood samples, rather than only symptoms and scans.
This study looks at how well different scores from brain scans can predict recovery after a stroke. It is for people who had an ischemic stroke and were treated with both clot-dissolving medicine and a clot removal procedure.
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 study looks at how well doctors in the emergency room diagnose transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) — temporary, minor strokes that quickly resolve. It aims to improve future care by reviewing records of people who had these symptoms.
This study looks at two ways to estimate your chance of having a stroke after a transient ischemic attack (a mini-stroke). You will be asked some questions, and your risk will be calculated using both methods. The goal is to see which tool is more accurate for patients like you.
This observational study follows people ages 18–50 who had a first TIA (“mini-stroke”) or an acute ischemic stroke to better understand what happens after the event. It may help improve future care by tracking symptoms, imaging findings, and recovery over time.
