About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of remote ischemic conditioning on dynamic cerebral autoregulation in patients with acute ischemic stroke receiving intravenous thrombolysis.

Read the detailed description

In this study, cases of ischemic stroke who undergo intravenous thrombolysis within 4.5 hours from onset are included. The experimental group receive basic treatment and remote ischemic conditioning for 200mmHg, 2 times within 6 hours to 24 hours from thrombolysis. The control group receive basic treatment and remote ischemic conditioning control for 60mmHg, 2 times within 6 hours to 24 hours from thrombolysis . Both groups underwent dynamic cerebral autoregulation measurements at days 1 to 2 and 7 to 10 of onset and recorded the relevant indexes, and blood samples were collected before and 24 hours after intravenous thrombolysis, we aimed to determine the impact of remote ischemic conditioning combined with intravenous thrombolysis on dynamic cerebral autoregulation in acute ischemic stroke patients. We hypothesized that remote ischemic conditioning would improve dynamic cerebral autoregulation in patients with acute ischemic stroke receiving intravenous thrombolysis.

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 re-perfusion. Limb ischemia was induced by inflation of a blood pressure cuff to 200 mmHg. All patients underwent dynamic cerebral autoregulation on days 1-2 and 7-10 after onset, and intravenous blood was collected by a nurse and stored in the laboratory 0-6 hours after thrombolysis and 24 hours after thrombolysis.

  • 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 re-perfusion. Limb ischemia was induced by inflation of a blood pressure cuff to 60 mmHg. All patients underwent dynamic cerebral autoregulation on days 1-2 and 7-10 after onset, and intravenous blood was collected by a nurse and stored in the laboratory 0-6 hours after thrombolysis and 24 hours after thrombolysis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Dynamic cerebral autoregulation of affected sides measured by phase difference(PD) in Degree

    A dynamic cerebral auto-regulation parameter derived from transfer function analysis.Continuous cerebral blood flow velocities of bilateral middle cerebral artery will be assessed noninvasively using transcranial Doppler. Spontaneous arterial blood pressure will be simultaneously recorded using a servo-controlled plethysmograph on the left or right middle finger with an appropriate finger cuff size. Transfer function analysis will be used to derive the autoregulatory parameters.

    Measured: 1-2 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing remote ischemic conditioning in people with Remote Ischemic Conditioning, 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 9 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 2 Nov 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 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?

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?

Dynamic cerebral autoregulation of affected sides measured by phase difference(PD) in Degree (time frame: 1-2 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 2 Nov 2022.
