Treating delayed brain damage after a ruptured aneurysm
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at ways to find and treat delayed brain damage (reduced blood flow) that can happen days after a brain bleed from a burst aneurysm. The goal is to improve recovery by catching and treating this complication earlier.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You must have had a type of bleeding in the brain called a subarachnoid hemorrhage, caused by a burst aneurysm.
- This diagnosis must be confirmed by a special scan or an angiogram.
- You must have been admitted to an intensive care unit for this condition.
- You cannot have had the bleeding due to head injury, a blood vessel malformation, or a brain tumor.

This trial is for people who had a brain bleed from a burst aneurysm and need intensive care. It tests better ways to diagnose and treat delayed brain injury that can happen days or weeks later.
This trial studies whether starting gentle movement and exercise early after a brain bleed (from a burst aneurysm) helps improve recovery. You might benefit if you have had your aneurysm treated and are awake enough to begin physical therapy soon after the event.
This study follows people with a brain bleed from a ruptured aneurysm in real-world hospital settings. It aims to better understand delayed brain damage after the bleed, which could help improve care.
This study tests a treatment for people who have had a brain bleed (subarachnoid hemorrhage) and are at risk for delayed brain damage due to narrowed blood vessels. It looks at whether a special procedure to relax the vessels (spasmolysis) combined with raising blood pressure can prevent long-term harm.
This study tests a simple, non-invasive technique called remote ischemic preconditioning to help prevent lack of blood flow to the brain after a bleeding brain aneurysm. It works by repeatedly inflating and deflating a blood pressure cuff on an arm or leg, which may help protect the brain from further damage.
This trial tests whether giving aspirin early after a ruptured brain aneurysm is treated can help prevent complications like vasospasm (a narrowing of brain blood vessels) and improve recovery. It is for people who have already had the aneurysm secured within 48 hours.
