Edinburgh Imaging's current stroke projects. HTML Current projects Title Description ATTEST 2 Alteplase-Tenecteplase Trial Evaluation for Stroke Thrombolysis Randomised-controlled trial comparing different types of thrombolytics for use in ischaemic stroke. Euro-Hyp-1 Randomised-controlled trial testing therapeutic cooling for patients with acute ischaemic stroke. LACI-2 LACunar Intervention Trial-2 Assessment of safety and efficacy of cilostazol & isosorbide mononitrate to prevent recurrent lacunar stroke & progression of cerebral small vessel disease. Mild Stroke Study 3 Mild Stroke Study 3 (MSS3) Improve understanding of what makes small vessel disease (SVD) worsen (or perhaps improve) & identify novel targets for SVD prevention & therapy. PRACTISE Penumbra & Recanalisation Acute Computed Tomography in Ischaemic Stroke Evaluation Randomised-controlled trial comparing advanced brain imaging (CT angiography & CT perfusion) with standard CT brain imaging alone for the assessment of acute ischaemic stroke. R4VaD Rates, Risks and Routes to Reduce Vascular Dementia Prospective clinical study evaluating the development of dementia among patients with stroke over at least 2 years. RESTART REstart or STop Antithrombotics Randomised Trial Randomised controlled trial for adults surviving spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) who had taken an antithrombotic drug (i.e. anticoagulant or antiplatelet medication) for the prevention of vaso-occlusive disease before the ICH. RITeS Real-world Independent Testing of eASPECTS Software RUSH Research to Understand Stroke due to Haemorrhage The RUSH programme is dedicated to better understanding the causes & outcome of spontaneous (non-traumatic) intracerebral haemorrhage in adults, leading to randomised controlled clinical trials of interventions to improve outcome. SITS-Open Safe implementation of Treatment in Stroke An open, prospective controlled study of thrombectomy versus standard care for ischaemic stroke. SoStart Start or Stop Anticoagulants Randomised Trial. Randomised-controlled trial for adults with atrial fibrillation after a brain haemorrhage.
