About this study

The aim of the work is to asses the positive effect of stenotic sinus segment stenting on idiopathic intracranial hypertension with headache and papilloedema.

Read the detailed description

Participants The study will include group of patients with an established diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertenton meeting our inclusion criteria and will admitted to Al-Azher Univerity Hospitals (Al-Hussien and Bab El-Shaeria) after informed consent from them. The recruitment will take place after approval from the Ethics Committee and the University Council.

  • They are selected according to The modified Dandy Criteria to Diagnose IIH:
  1. Grade II paplledema .
  2. normal neurological examination except for six nerve palsy.
  3. neuroimaging criteria of normal brain parenchyma without evidence of hydrocephalus, mass or structural lesion and no abnormal meningeal enhancement on MRI.
  4. normal CSF composition.
  5. elevated lumbar puncture opening pressure, defined as greater than or equal to 250 mmH2O in adults (7).
  • Exclusion criteria included:
  1. Age less than orequal to 18 years.
  2. creatinine .1.5 mg/dL.
  3. severe allergic reaction to iodine contrast.
  4. contraindication to general anesthesia, use of aspirin, clopidogrel or anticoagulants, thrombophilic disorder or anticardiolipin syndrome.
  5. dural arteriovenous fistula or other arteriovenous lesion affecting cortical venous flow.
  6. pregnancy.
  7. Blood pressure must be measured to exclude malignant hypertension, as defined as a diastolic blood pressure greater than or equal to 120 mm Hg or systolic blood pressure greater than or equal to 180 mm Hg(17).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Stent in people with Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension, run by Al-Azhar University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 4 Apr 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 Egypt. 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?

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?

Change in papillodema (time frame: 3 months after intervention). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 4 Apr 2022.
