Trial summary

This is a single institutional registry database for the patients with stroke and cerebrovascular diseases. Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death in the United States. Despite extensive research, most of the patients die or suffer from varying degree of post-stroke disabilities due to neurologic deficits. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 1 year and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients with a final/discharge diagnosis of stroke or transient ischemic attack can be included into the Stroke Registry. This includes cases with a principal/primary or secondary diagnosis of: * Cerebral Infarction * Intracerebral Hemorrhage (non-traumatic) * Ischemic Stroke * Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (non-traumatic) * Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) * Acute Brain Injury * Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis The investigators will use the available EMR and databases to search for these patients using relevant ICD-9/10 codes.

Who may be able to join

  • All patients with a diagnosis of Acute Brain injury, Transient Ischemic Attack, Acute and Chronic Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke, Subarachnoid hemorrhage, and cerebral venous thrombosis seen in UNMH.
  • Age >1 years of age.

Who cannot join

  • Patients who don't have the diagnosis of Acute Brain injury, Transient Ischemic Attack, Acute and Chronic Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke, Subarachnoid hemorrhage, and cerebral venous thrombosis.
  • Patients who have Epidural Hematoma, Subdural hematoma.

About this study

This is a single institutional registry database for the patients with stroke and cerebrovascular diseases. Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death in the United States. Despite extensive research, most of the patients die or suffer from varying degree of post-stroke disabilities due to neurologic deficits. This registry aims to understand the disease and examine the disease dynamics in the local community.

Read the detailed description

Stroke is the fifth cause of all-cause mortality in US http://www.cdc.gov/stroke/facts.htm Early identification and treatment not only prevent mortality but also morbidity. Recent advancement in the imaging and diagnostic technique and novel therapeutic modalities has dramatically helped to downgrade stroke from the list of top mortality index in the last 3 years. However, studies determining factors which help predict stroke outcome are still underway and much work needs to be done in this direction. Many factors currently are used to predict stroke outcome with varying results, for e.g. NIHSS is a good predictor of stroke outcome at 3 months; however, the investigators need better predictors, outcome scales or outcome measures which are easy, reliable and has better specificity and sensitivity.

Acute Brain injury, Transient Ischemic Attack is a special category of a neurological condition wherein there is an impending devastating outcome if workup is not completed in a timely fashion. There is an urgent need to do investigations with high-risk patients to prevent stroke and further mortality and morbidity. The abcd2 score can help us to risk stratify the TIA and to predict the chances of stroke in this specific cohort. However, investigators need better identifiers than already present, to improve the patient changes in secondary prophylaxis of stroke prevention http://www.stroke.org/sites/default/files/resources/tia-abcd2-tool.pdf?docID

There is also some correlation of clinical and biochemical predictors in subarachnoid, cerebral venous thrombosis including Hunt and Hess, SAH score, WFNS-SAH grading among others with variable predictive quality. (Rosen et al; Neurocritical Care; April 2005, Volume 2, Issue 2, pp 110-118: Subarachnoid hemorrhage grading scales).

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients with strokePatients with the Acute Brain injury, Transient Ischemic Attack, Acute and Chronic Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke, Subarachnoid hemorrhage, and cerebral venous thrombosis from pre-hospitalization, hospitalization (in-patient) and post hospitalization (clinic) data
Patients without strokeControl subject who have the risk factors but never had stroke.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Improvement or worsening in stroke signs/symptoms.

    Prospective and retrospective analysis of patients with the acute brain injury, transient ischemic attack, acute and chronic ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and cerebral venous thrombosis from pre-hospitalization, hospitalization (in-patient) and post hospitalization (clinic) data to determine factors which can predict stroke outcome.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stroke and Acute Stroke, run by University of New Mexico at 1 site in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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 22 Aug 2022. 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 United States. 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?

Improvement or worsening in stroke signs/symptoms. (time frame: 1 year). 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 22 Aug 2022.
