Study Summary

This trial is testing whether using a cone beam computed tomography (CB-CT) machine for both imaging and reconstruction can save time for acute ischemic stroke patients.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with a recent ischemic stroke within the last 24 hours, who have a blockage in a large artery and are not severely ill with other conditions. They must have an NIHSS score of less than 8, indicating mild to moderate stroke severity, and cannot be pregnant or have severe kidney disease.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing if using C-arm Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CB-CT) can save substantial time during cerebrovascular interventions by quickly acquiring and reconstructing images for acute ischemic stroke patients compared to standard Multi-detector CT.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the trial focuses on imaging techniques rather than medications, potential side effects may include discomfort from remaining still during imaging, exposure to radiation, and risks associated with contrast agents used such as allergic reactions or kidney issues.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Are participants still being recruited for this experimentation?

"Data hosted on clinicaltrials.gov shows that this medical experiment is in the process of enrolling participants, and initially appeared online on January 1st 2023 with a recent update occurring September 8th 2022."

Answered by AI

What are the eligibility criteria to participate in this research?

"This research project is expecting 90 qualified individuals between 18 and 99 who have experienced a cerebrovascular mishap. To be accepted, they must meet all of the following conditions: acute stroke in the 24 hours before admission, an artery occlusion that's substantial enough to qualify, no more severe co-morbidities than National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) < 8 score and those potentially able to bear children can not be pregnant."

Answered by AI

Are geriatric patients eligible for the current research project?

"Per the trial's requirements, eligible participants must be between 18 to 99 years of age. There are seven separate trials for minors and 335 more specifically targeting seniors."

Answered by AI

To what extent are participants engaging in this research endeavor?

"Affirmative. Per clinicaltrials.gov, the research project first posted on January 1st 2023 is actively recruiting participants for their study; 90 people are needed from one location. The information was recently updated on September 8th 2022."
