About this study
Decompressive craniectomy is a treatment of refractory intracranial hypertension after various etiologies : malignant ischemic stroke, traumatic brain injury, intraparenchymal hemorrhage, aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, cerebral venous thrombosis.
Initially considered as a lifesaving therapy, benefits in terms of survival were shown compared to medical treatment alone.

However, despite a better survival, morbidity and poor neurological outcome are frequent among survivors.
The objective of the study is to identify initial good neurological outcome factors after decompressive craniectomy in a large series of patients, in order to argue surgical and intensive care decisions, considering expected benefit and quality of life.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Decompressive Craniectomy and Brain Injuries, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France at 1 site in France.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Good neurological outcome (time frame: 6 months after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Dec 2020.
