About this study

Official title: Impact of Blood Pressure Measurement Methods for the Prediction of Intracranial Hemorrhage After Thrombectomy in Acute Stroke

A monocentric, non-randomized, prospective study in which each patient is his/her own control.

The study investigates 2 methods of blood pressure measurement, within the first 24 hours after reperfusion, i) Continuous measurement of blood pressure with the Clearsight device (Edwards) and ii) intermittent blood pressure measurements with cuff.

Read the detailed description

Patients will be followed for 72 hours:

  • inclusion after reperfusion: clinical evaluation with NIHSS (National Institute of Health Stroke Score) score, measurement of blood pressure.
  • within 24 hours after reperfusion: blood pressure measurements
  • at 24 hours: NIHSS score.
  • Between 24 and 36 hours :cerebral scan (assessment of hemorrhagic transformations and cerebral infarction volumes).
  • 72 hours after reperfusion: brain scanner in case of hyperdensity on the initial scanner
Being tested
Clearsight device (Edwards) around the finger, Intermittent blood pressure measurements with cuff.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Clearsight device (Edwards) around the fingerDevice

    Continuous measurement of blood pressure with the Clearsight device (Edwards) around the finger, within 24 hours after reperfusion:

  • Intermittent blood pressure measurements with cuff.Device

    Standard method: 35 blood pressure measurements with cuff within 24 hours after reperfusion

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Two measuring methods of blood pressureNot described
Receives: Device: Clearsight device (Edwards) around the finger; Device: Intermittent blood pressure measurements with cuff.

What is being measured

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

  1. Occurence of intracranial hemorrhagic complications

    number of intracranial hemorrhagic complications (symptomatic or asymptomatic) on brain scanner, evaluated with a double centralized blind reading

    Measured: 36 hours after baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Stroke and Blood Pressure, run by Fondation Ophtalmologique Adolphe de Rothschild at 1 site in France.

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 9 Apr 2026. 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 France. 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?

Occurence of intracranial hemorrhagic complications (time frame: 36 hours after baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03359434, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Apr 2026.
