Detection of an Endovascular Treatment Target in Patients With an Acute, Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Официальное название

Detection of an Endovascular Treatment Target in Patients With an Acute, Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage - an EXPLOrative Pilot Study (HemEXPLO)

Обзор

This study is to determine if a treatment target for a potential endovascular therapy exists in patients with an acute, spontaneous (non-traumatic) ICH.

Подробное описание

Hemorrhagic stroke caused by an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a common (roughly 15% of all strokes) and devastating disease with high rates of mortality and morbidity. The most important potentially modifiable prognostic factor after acute diagnosis of an ICH is hematoma expansion.

The investigators hypothesize that in hyperacute ICH patients a treatment target can be detected with a diagnostic, cerebral DSA. The DSA is the goldstandard for the visualization of brain vessels. A treatment target would be a vessel from which contrast media extravasates as a sign of an active bleeding. If such a target could be identified, it could lay the rationale for future trials which would evaluate if stopping the bleeding directly at the origin improves patient outcomes. The only intervention in this study is an additional diagnostic cerebral DSA. This study is to determine if a treatment target for a potential endovascular therapy exists in patients with an acute, spontaneous (non-traumatic) ICH.

Вмешательства

• Диагностический тест Diagnostic, cerebral Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA)
  The DSA is the goldstandard for the visualization of brain vessels. For performing a diagnostic cerebral DSA, the femoral artery of the patient will be punctured in the groin. Over this arterial access a catheter will be advanced under fluoroscopy guidance to the target vessel in the brain. After navigation to the targeted brain vessel, contrast media will be injected over the catheter into the vessel. The efflux of the contrast media will be monitored and visualized with fluoroscopy. The additi

Первичные конечные точки

• Presence of a treatment target for a potential endovascular therapy (binary endpoint: yes/no) [Срок оценки: one time assessment at baseline (duration of the DSA will be 15 to 20 minutes)]

Критерии участия

Критерии включения

• Diagnosis of an acute spontaneous ICH based on non-contrast CT

Критерии исключения

• High probability that the etiology of the bleeding is a ruptured aneurysm, an arteriovenous malformation or an amyloid angiopathy as judged by the treating physician
