Brain blood flow monitoring after aneurysm bleed
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial uses a special light-based sensor (near-infrared spectroscopy) to monitor blood flow in the brain continuously after a bleeding stroke (subarachnoid hemorrhage). The goal is to improve early detection of reduced blood flow, which could help prevent complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 89 years old.
- You must be in the Neuro ICU at UAB between March 2025 and December 2026.
- You must have a brain bleed caused by a burst aneurysm.
- You cannot be a prisoner, pregnant, or on another experimental treatment study.
- You cannot be a student or employee of UAB.
- You must not have had surgery removing part of the front skull where the sensor goes.

This trial uses brain MRI scans and memory/brain-function tests in people who are recovering from a specific type of brain bleed (aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage). It aims to understand how the brain’s memory area changes after the event and how that may relate to memory function during rehabilitation.
This study tests a new non-invasive sensor to monitor brain pressure and explores a nerve stimulation technique that might help recovery after bleeding on the brain from a ruptured aneurysm. It aims to see if these approaches are safe and could improve outcomes.
This study uses special monitors to watch brain activity and other vital signs in adults admitted to the neurosurgery intensive care unit (NSICU). The goal is to learn more about how the brain is doing and could help doctors provide better care.
This trial tests a safe, non-invasive treatment called remote ischemic conditioning (using a blood pressure cuff on your leg) to see if it helps brain recovery after aneurysm surgery. It might reduce secondary damage and improve outcomes.
This trial tests a new robotic device that uses sound waves to check blood flow in the brain. It is for people who are in the Neuro ICU after spinal surgery and need careful blood pressure management.
This study is looking at whether two devices used during brain aneurysm coiling surgery — one that measures oxygen levels in the brain (NIRS) and one that tracks depth of anesthesia (BIS) — can help doctors monitor patients better and possibly improve safety.
