Long-term assessment of cognitive and motor function after intracerebral hemorrhage

Recovery and Outcomes From Stroke-Longitudinal Assessment With Neuroimaging

Observational State University of New York at Buffalo · NCT05089331

This study is testing how brain and movement skills change over time in 250 patients who had a type of stroke called intracerebral hemorrhage to see what helps them recover or if they might get worse.

What this trial studies

This observational study will follow 250 patients who experienced deep and lobar intracerebral hemorrhage to conduct advanced neuroimaging and evaluate motor and cognitive functions at multiple time points, including baseline, 6 months, and 12 months post-stroke. The aim is to identify predictors of recovery and the potential for progressive cognitive or functional impairment over a period of 12 to 24 months, with long-term follow-up extending to an average of 36 months. This study represents the largest and longest evaluation of neuroimaging and RNA-sequencing after intracerebral hemorrhage to date.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18 years or older who have experienced deep, subcortical, or lobar intracerebral hemorrhage without other complicating factors.

Not a fit: Patients with brainstem or cerebellar intracerebral hemorrhage, or those severely affected by the hemorrhage, may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide insights into the long-term cognitive and functional outcomes for patients after intracerebral hemorrhage, potentially guiding future therapeutic strategies.

How similar studies have performed: While this study builds on existing knowledge, it represents a novel and extensive approach to understanding long-term outcomes after intracerebral hemorrhage, with no prior studies of this scale in neuroimaging and RNA-sequencing.
