Brain Bleed Study: CT Scan Markers of Risk (SPOT)
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at people who had a brain bleed (intracerebral hemorrhage) to understand if certain signs on CT scans can predict higher risk of severe outcomes. Participants will have two CT scans—one with dye soon after the bleed and another 1 to 2 days later.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a sudden bleed inside your brain (not caused by an injury).
- You had a special CT scan with dye (contrast) right after the bleed started.
- You had a follow-up CT scan of your brain 1 to 2 days later.
- Your bleed is not from a head injury or other types like bleeding outside the brain.

This study looks at brain swelling (“cerebral edema”) after a spontaneous brain bleed and how it relates to outcomes. It mainly involves people who can have early care and MRI scans, to better understand what affects recovery.
This study looks at whether a simple CT scan done within the first day can help predict how well people recover after a brain bleed. It might help doctors better understand your condition and plan your care.
This study looks for markers in your blood and brain scans that may help doctors better understand and predict outcomes after a spontaneous brain bleed. It is for people with high blood pressure who have had a bleed within the last three days.
This study is for people who had a spontaneous brain bleed and did not have surgery. It aims to learn more about their recovery and health over time.
This study looks at a special scan (DSA, done with contrast dye) to find a likely “target” that doctors can use when treating sudden brain bleeding. It’s meant to help doctors better understand where treatment may be needed soon after symptoms start.
This study looks at what happens to people after a bleed in the brain. It will help doctors understand how people recover, so they can improve care for future patients.
