Phase 4

• Conditions: Neurosensory Disorder
• Interventions: Drug: Huperzine A for Injection

• Registration Number: NCT04509323
• Lead Sponsor: Jiangsu Famous Medical Technology Co., Ltd.

Brief Summary

1. To evaluate the effectiveness of Huperzine A injection in the treatment of brain injury in patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage；

2. To evaluate the safety of Huperzine A injection in the treatment of brain injury in patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage。

Detailed Description

A randomized, controlled, single-center, exploratory clinical research method was used. In the treatment plan, the experimental group used basic treatment + Huperzine A, and the control group only used basic treatment, with a total of 20 cases. To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Huperzine A injection in the treatment of brain injury in patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Experimental：Huperzine A for Injection+Basic treatment	Huperzine A for Injection	Huperzine A for Injection: Dissolve each bottle with 2ml sterile water for injection and inject into muscle, the course of treatment is 14 days； Basic treatment：Control blood pressure; prevent continued bleeding; prevent and treat gastrointestinal bleeding; decide whether to perform dehydration treatment according to the condition to reduce cerebral edema; prevent infection, prevent various complications, etc.; routine rehabilitation training.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Extension of Glasgow Outcome Scale(GOSE) Scores at 90 days of treatment	At the 90-day	At the 90-day follow-up of patients, the extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOSE) was used to assess and judge the difference in consciousness after stroke between the two groups. The scores of minimum values is 1, the maximum values is 8, whether higher scores mean a better outcome.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Extension of Glasgow Outcome Scale(GOSE) Scores at 30 days of treatment	At the 30-day	At the 30-day follow-up of patients, the extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOSE) was used to assess and judge the difference in consciousness after stroke between the two groups. The scores of minimum values is 1, the maximum values is 8, whether higher scores mean a better outcome.
Scores of Modified Rankin Scale(mRS) at 30 days of treatment	At the 30-day	At 30 days of treatment, the two groups of patients were scored with scores of Modified Rankin Scale(mRS). The mRS score of the two groups were compared whether there were statistical differences.The scores of minimum values is 0, the maximum values is 5, whether higher scores mean a worse outcome.
Scores of Modified Rankin Scale(mRS) at 14 days of treatment	At the 14-day	At 14 days of treatment, the two groups of patients were scored with scores of Modified Rankin Scale(mRS). The mRS score of the two groups were compared whether there were statistical differences. The scores of minimum values is 0, the maximum values is 5, whether higher scores mean a worse outcome.
Scores of National Institute of Health stroke scale(NIHSS) at 14 days of treatment	At the 14-day	At 14 days of treatment, the two groups of patients were scored with scores of National Institute of Health stroke scale(NIHSS). The NIHSS score of the two groups were compared whether there were statistical differences. The scores of minimum values is 0, the maximum values is 42, whether higher scores mean a worse outcome.
Scores of National Institute of Health stroke scale(NIHSS) at 30 days of treatment	At the 30-day	At 30 days of treatment, the two groups of patients were scored with scores of National Institute of Health stroke scale(NIHSS). The NIHSS score of the two groups were compared whether there were statistical differences. The scores of minimum values is 0, the maximum values is 42, whether higher scores mean a worse outcome.
Complication rate	At the 90-day	After 90 days of treatment, compare whether the incidence of complications (including epilepsy, hydrocephalus, infarction, rebleeding, pneumonia, gastrointestinal hemorrhage) between the two groups is statistically different
