Study Summary

Study Location: This study takes place in a few hospitals including the University of California San Francisco, Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital, and Duke University.

Purpose: The study is about using a special tool called Transcranial Doppler (TCD), which is a safe device that helps doctors watch how blood moves in the brain. It's mainly for people with brain injuries like a stroke or brain bleed. The study aims to understand brain signals better and create tools for future brain care.

What Happens: If you join, doctors will record brain blood flow signals for 60 minutes. This study does not give treatment but collects data to help create new brain monitoring devices.

  • Length: Each session lasts up to 60 minutes.
  • Eligibility: You must be 18 or older and use an ICP (intracranial pressure) device.
  • Risks: People with unstable health or skull issues may not participate due to safety concerns.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
