简要总结
The vast majority of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients present with elevated blood pressure(BP). Management of BP is controversial with two competing rationales. There is some evidence that hyperacute treatment may improve outcomes by reducing the rate of hematoma expansion. Physicians have been reluctant to reduce BP early after ICH onset, fearing reduced cerebral blood flow (CBF) will increase ischemia and increase the risk of further damage. Other confounding mediators to further ischemic injury following ICH include increased platelet activity, withdrawal of antithrombotic therapy, endothelial dysfunction, inflammation and hypercoagulability.
This study is phase II of the ICH-ADAPT study. The investigators hypothesize that aggressive antihypertensive therapy will alter the natural history of heamatoma growth, improving outcomes after Intracranial Hemorrhage (ICH). The previous phase I ICH-ADAPT study has established the safety of early BP treatment.
The investigators have designed a phase II study in which ICH patients are randomized to aggressive versus conservative BP treatment using a deferred consent procedure. An adaptive randomization will be used to treat BP to < 140 mmHg SBP or < 180 mmHg SBP. Treatment must be implemented as soon as possible after radiological confirmation of diagnosis. Antihypertensive therapy must begin within 6 hours of symptom onset. The patient will be re-imaged 24 hours later. The patient will have continuous non-invasive BP and heart rate(HR) monitoring for a minimum of 24 hours. Antihypertensive drug use and dosage will be recorded with BP and HR. Patients will be monitored regularly until study completion. MRI's will be done at 48 hours, day 7 and day 30. This imaging will help to detect ischemic changes that may occur. Blood will be collected at the same time as the MRI. Blood analysis will be done to possibly identify biomarkers that may be putative mediators of ischemic injury in ICH patients.
详细描述
Study Design: multi-centre randomized open-label, blinded-endpoint trial of two different BP management strategies. This study is being conducted in the Emergency Departments and Stroke Units of Canadian academic and non-academic centres.
Overall Aim and Hypothesis: The primary study aim is to assess the rate of ischemic lesion development in patients randomized to two different BP treatment strategies. The overall a priori hypothesis is that aggressive BP reduction will not be associated with ischemic injury after ICH.
Patients: Male and female patients will be recruited from Emergency Departments of participating hospitals. A total of 270 patients will be included over 3 years.
Baseline Data and Randomization: Demographics, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores (both of which are part of routine stroke patient assessment), time of symptom onset and diagnostic CT scan will all be recorded. If the CT scan is completed within 6 hours of onset and confirms evidence of a primary ICH, patients will be randomized. Where patients are incompetent and surrogate decision makers are not immediately available, randomization will occur using a deferred consent procedure. Stroke risk factors, past medical history and medications, with emphasis on antihypertensives, as well as standard clinical blood work (complete blood count and coagulation profile) will be recorded after randomization in order to avoid delays to BP treatment.
