Clinical Trials

C3FIT’s overall goal is to assess if patient outcomes are improved when the Comprehensive and Primary Stroke Center (CSC/PSC) system is supplemented with an Integrated Stroke Practice Unit (ISPU) system of care, a patient-centric model of care involving the patient and caregiver/family that coordinates care from the acute management through the rehabilitation and recovery of the patient.

The primary objectives of this study are to determine whether treatment of OSA with positive airway pressure starting shortly after acute ischemic stroke or high risk TIA reduces recurrent stroke, acute coronary syndrome, and all-cause mortality 6 months after the event, and improves stroke outcomes at 3 months in patients who experienced an ischemic stroke.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether VNS therapy leads to any changes in the cognitive functions of individuals who have survived a stroke.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with positive airway pressure starting shortly after acute ischemic stroke or high risk TIA (1) reduces recurrent stroke, acute coronary syndrome, and all-cause mortality 6 months after the event, and (2) improves stroke outcomes at 3 months in patients who experienced an ischemic stroke.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) paired with mobility training to improve lower extremity function and gait in individuals with chronic ischemic stroke.
