Managing temporary brain symptoms in moyamoya surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial is testing a method to reduce temporary neurological symptoms during moyamoya disease surgery. It might help patients who are having a bypass procedure to improve blood flow to the brain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have moyamoya disease and are scheduled for a direct bypass surgery.
- You are 3 years old or older.
- You do not have kidney problems, electrolyte imbalances, or certain muscle/nerve disorders like myasthenia gravis.
- You do not have heart block.

This study is building a tool to predict how people with moyamoya disease will do after brain surgery to improve blood flow. If you are an adult with moyamoya and are scheduled for this surgery, you may be able to help.
This study at Vanderbilt tests whether certain biomarkers (signs in your blood or brain scans) can help tailor care for people with Moyamoya, a condition where blood flow to the brain is reduced. Participants will have brain scans and complete study procedures before and after surgery to improve blood flow.
This trial follows people with moyamoya disease who are treated with medication only, and it also looks at first-degree relatives. The goal is to understand long-term outcomes and whether careful conservative care is beneficial over time.
This study looks at how Moyamoya disease changes over time and what predicts outcomes. It uses approved brain imaging and, likely, thinking/memory tests to understand prognosis.
This trial tests whether a daily aspirin regimen combined with a blood-pressure cuff treatment on the arm can slow the progression of mild moyamoya disease. It aims to reduce the risk of strokes and bleeding events.
This study looks at why some people with moyamoya disease have trouble with thinking and memory. It may help find better ways to understand and treat these problems.
