About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Remote Ischemic Conditioning for Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Multicenter, Randomized, Parallel-controlled Clinical Trial

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of remote ischemic conditioning for acute ischemic stroke.

Read the detailed description

In this study, 2210 cases of ischemic stroke in 72 hours were included in 10 centers in China according to the principle of random, and parallel control. The experimental group receive basic treatment and remote ischemic conditioning for 200mmHg, 2 times per day for 7 consecutive days. The control group receive basic treatment and remote ischemic conditioning control for 60mmHg, 2 times per day for 7 consecutive days. Two groups will be followed up for 90 days to evaluate the efficacy and safety of remote ischemic conditioning in treating acute ischemic stroke.

Remote ischemic conditioning, Sham remote ischemic conditioning

What participants receive

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

  • Remote ischemic conditioningProcedure or surgery

    Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is induced by 4 cycles of 5 min of healthy upper limb ischemia followed by 5 min reperfusion. Limb ischemia was induced by inflation of a blood pressure cuff to 200 mm Hg.

  • Sham remote ischemic conditioningProcedure or surgery

    Sham remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is induced by 4 cycles of 5 min of healthy upper limb ischemia followed by 5 min reperfusion. Limb ischemia was induced by inflation of a blood pressure cuff to 60 mm Hg.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of patients with modified Rankin Scale (mRS) Score 0-2.

    Proportion of patients with modified Rankin Scale (mRS) Score 0-2. Ranged from 0 to 6, a low value represents a better outcome.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) at 7 days, 30±3 days, 90±3 days from onset.

    National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) at 24 hours, 7 days, 30±3 days, 90±3 days from onset. Ranged from 0 to 42, a low value represents a better outcome.

    Measured: 7days, 30±3 days, 90±3 days

  2. modified Rankin Scale (mRS) Score at 7 days, 30±3 days, 90±3 days from onset.

    modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 24 hours, 7 days, 30±3 days, 90±3 days from onset. Ranged from 0 to 6, a low value represents a better outcome.

    Measured: 7days, 30±3 days, 90±3 days

  3. Barthel Index (BI) at 7 days, 30±3 days, 90±3 days from onset.

    Barthel Index (BI) at 7 days, 30±3 days, 90±3 days from onset. Ranged from 0 to 100, a high value represents a better outcome.

    Measured: 7days, 30±3 days, 90±3 days

  4. Proportion of patients with hemorrhagic transformation during hospitalization.

    Proportion of patients with hemorrhagic transformation during hospitalization.

    Measured: 7 days

  5. Frequency of adverse events during follow-up.

    Severe adverse events through day-90 after the onset of acute ischemic stroke.

    Measured: 90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Remote ischemic conditioning in people with Acute Ischemic Stroke, run by Yi Yang 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 5 inclusion and 10 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 2 Oct 2024. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 Yi Yang, MD, PhD (0086-13756661217, doctor_yangyi@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of patients with modified Rankin Scale (mRS) Score 0-2. (time frame: 3 months). 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 2 Oct 2024.
