Trial summary

The main purpose of this study is to analyse the on-going coagulation process after aSAH. For investigation the investigators use the rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) which is a point-of-care test using a variety of activators to provide a targeted and a dynamic analysis of coagulation cascade.

About this study

The main purpose of this study is to analyse the on-going coagulation process after aSAH. For investigation the investigators use the rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) which is a point-of-care test using a variety of activators to provide a targeted and a dynamic analysis of coagulation cascade. This is a prospective, observational clinical study done in 16 aSAH patients treated in Tampere University Hospital intensive care unit and 16 control patients (elective craniotomy due to non-ruptured intracranial aneurysm.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aneurysmatic Subarachnoid Haemorrhage, run by Tampere University Hospital at 1 site in Finland.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jun 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Finland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

ROTEM analysis: MCF (mm) by EXTEM activators (time frame: 12 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Jun 2016.
