About this study

Official title: A Multicenter Prospective Cohort Study of Multimodal MRI in Cerebral Small Vessel Disease and Covert Stroke in Perioperative Patients

MOCSS study is a multicenter prospective clinical cohort study. The purpose of the MOCSS study is to investigate whether there is a correlation between the preoperative cerebral small vessel disease and the incidence of covert stroke after non-cardiac surgery. Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) and covert stroke will be diagnosed using multimodal MRI. This study will also investigate whether preoperative CSVD and postoperative covert stroke are related to postoperative cognitive dysfunction and delirium.

Read the detailed description

With the growing number of the older population, surgery for elderly patients is on the rise. Elderly patients often have more cardiovascular disease and brain vulnerability and tend to experience more perioperative complications. Perioperative covert stroke is one of those that can been neglected for a long time and is associated with long-term cognitive impairment. While CSVD is an insidious disease mainly affecting small blood vessels in the brain with variable symptoms including dementia, cognitive decline, gait impairment, mood disturbance and stroke. According to the etiopathology of CSVD, there's a possibility that CSVD is a potential risk factor for covert stroke and it may serve as a predictive marker for cognitive decline after surgery.

In this multicenter prospective clinical cohort study, the investigators aim to investigate the correlation between the MRI manifestations of cerebral small vessel disease and perioperative covert stroke.

Patients aged between 65 to 85 who are scheduled for elective non-cardiac surgeries will be enrolled.The primary outcome is the incidence of perioperative covert stroke diagnosed by MRI. Secondary outcomes include incidence of delirium (using ICU-CAM) within 3 days after surgery and cognitive function tests (using Mini-Mental State Examination and Montreal Cognitive Assessment), physical function test (using ADL, Activities of Daily Living) and dependence test (using modified Rankin Scale) at 3 months, 6 months and 12months after surgery.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Cerebral Small Vessel DiseaseIn this group, patients are diagnosed with cerebral small vessel disease preoperatively using multimodal MRI.
non-Cerebral Small Vessel DiseaseIn this group, cerebral small vessel disease is ruled out by preoperative multimodal MRI.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of postoperative covert stroke

    We will use MRI to detect postoperative covert stroke as soon as patients can tolerate MRI.

    Measured: 14 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Incidence of overt stroke after surgery

    Incidence of overt stroke will be measured by obtaining medical history.

    Measured: 3 months, 6 months and 12 months

  2. Modified Rankin Scale after surgery

    The Modified Rankin Scale measures the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people after stroke or other neurological disability.Minimum value:0, Maximum value:6. Higher scores mean a worse outcome.

    Measured: 3 months, 6 months and 12 months

  3. Cognitive Function assessed by Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale

    We will use Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scale to assess cognitive function after surgery. Minimum value:0, Maximum value: 30. Higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Measured: 3 months, 6 months and 12 months

  4. Cognitive Function assessed by Mini-Mental State Examination Scale

    We will use Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scale to assess cognitive function after surgery. Minimum value:0, Maximum value: 30. Higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Measured: 3 months, 6 months and 12 months

  5. Incidence of delirium

    Incidence of delirium will be measured using Intensive Care Unit-Cognitive Assessment Method (ICU-CAM) every 12 hours till the 72 hours after surgery.

    Measured: 72 hours

  6. Physical functions after surgery

    The investigators will use Activities of daily living (ADL) scale to measure physical function after surgery. Minimum value:0, Maximum value: 78. Higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Measured: 3 months, 6 months and 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cerebral Small Vessel Diseases and Covert Postoperative Stroke, run by RenJi Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 3 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jun 2023. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Peiying Li, MD,PhD (8615800616866, peiyingli.md@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of postoperative covert stroke (time frame: 14 days). 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 Jun 2023.
