Trial Outcomes & Findings for Clinical Trial on Treatment of Intraventricular Hemorrhage (NCT NCT00650858)

NCT ID: NCT00650858

Last Updated: 2017-12-11

Results Overview

The number of subjects who died at or before the 30-day follow-up visit were determined as a measure of safety. If more than 50% of the subjects died at or before the 30-day follow-up visit, the study would have been stopped for full DSMB review.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 30 days

The number of subjects who died at or before the 30-day follow-up visit were determined as a measure of safety. If more than 50% of the subjects died at or before the 30-day follow-up visit, the study would have been stopped for full DSMB review.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 30 days

The incidence of bacterial ventriculitis/meningitis was recorded to determine the safety of intraventricular administration of rt-PA. If 30% or more subjects experienced this event, the study would have been stopped for full DSMB review.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 90 days

90 day follow-up visit mRS score. The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) is a commonly used scale for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability. It is scored from 0 to 6: 0. No Symptoms, 1. No Significant Disability, 2. Slight Disability, 3. Moderate Disability, 4. Moderately Severe Disability, 5. Severe Disability and 6. Dead. (Stage 1 patients only had 30 day scores, Stage 2 patients had 30 day, 90 day and 180 day scores collected)

Severe Disability, 4. Moderate Disability and 5. Good Recovery. (Stage 1 patients only had 30 day scores, Stage 2 patients had 30 day, 90 day and 180 day scores collected)
