No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of lowering glucose (blood sugar), in addition to endovascular therapy, after acute ischemic stroke. The study will determine if lowering glucose (blood sugar) in addition to endovascular therapy will improve 90-day functional and neurological outcomes in comparison to standard glycemic care in patients with acute ischemic stroke. The study will involve treatment of 100 (50 intensive insulin therapy and 50 standard glycemic control) non-diabetic patients presenting within 8 hours of acute ischemic stroke who have undergone endovascular therapy.
