Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: VItalFlow Stimulation TreatmentExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Enrolled subjects shall receive a VitalFlow stimulation after other standard-of-care treatments are initiated. VitalFlow treatment is initiated by powering on the System and positioning the two (Left and Right) VItalFlow coils on each side of the head (by the ear). The operator controls the VItalFlow Stimulation through the accompanying console with simple button operation. Once treatment is initiated, the VitalFlow provides continuous, biphasic pulses at a preset power cycle with the total treatment time under 5 min (fixed time). After treatment is completed, the coils are removed and replaced on the VitalFlow System.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Is this investigation including geriatric individuals in its scope?

"This medical trial invites those aged 18 and older, up to the age of 85, to participate."

Answered by AI

What goals is this medical research attempting to achieve?

"This clinical trial, lasting 90 days post-procedure, will principally focus on the Feasibility of device use in the Clinical Environment as assessed by User Survey. Additionally, exploratory objectives encompass assessing Change in core volumes and occlusion status through CTP scans at pre-stimulation vs 2–4 hours post-stimulation; also included is evaluating Patient Outcome as determined by Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores at 90 days post-procedure."

Answered by AI

Are enrollment slots currently open for this research project?

"According to information on clinicaltrials.gov, this study is currently recruiting patients. It was initially posted in August of 2022 and the latest update occurred in October of the same year."

Answered by AI

How many subjects are taking part in this research initiative?

"Affirmative. Data housed on clinicaltrials.gov reveals that this experiment, which was purportedly listed on August 24th 2022, is presently in search of participants. The research team has plans to recruit 10 patients across two separate sites."

Answered by AI

Do I meet the requisite criteria to join this medical trial?

"This clinical trial is currently enrolling 10 individuals aged between 18 and 85 years old, suffering from stroke. Additionally, all participants must have had IV rtPA or Endovascular Treatment (EVT) before the start of their participation in this study, with 1.5 hours allotted for pre-stimulation procedures to keep the therapeutic window open at 6 hours."
