Detailed Description

Cerebral autoregulation (CA) is the ability of cerebral vascular system to contract or diastole with the change of perfusion pressure, and to maintain the stability of cerebral blood flow. It has been found that there are different degrees of CA damage in patients with traumatic brain injury, ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, ischemic hypoxic encephalopathy and sepsis. At the same time, studies have shown that CA damage or loss is related to brain dysfunction and poor prognosis in patients with neurocritical diseases. Therefore, early assessment and intervention of CA can help identify individuals with high risk of complications and improve outcome.

Targeted temperature management (TTM) is a kind of body temperature management started when the core temperature of patients is higher than 37.5 ℃, including achieve hypothermia (TTMhypo) and maintain normal temperature (TTMnorm). TTMhypo has been widely considered as one of the neuroprotective therapies for a variety of brain diseases and injuries, including ischemic stroke, traumatic brain injury, hypoxic brain injury caused by out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy. Its neuroprotective effects in reducing brain edema, reducing intracranial pressure, reducing brain metabolism and inhibiting apoptosis have been recognized. However, the existing studies mainly focus on the effect of TTMhypo on the mortality and neurological outcome of patients with severe neurological diseases in ICU. There is no large clinical study on the effect of targeted temperature management (TTM) on cerebral autoregulation in patients with severe neurological diseases. Due to the controversy of TTMhypo on mortality and neurological outcome, this study aime to reduce the patient's core temperature to normal. Patients with severe neurological disorders who still had cerebral autoregulation dysfunction, had fever, and needed to reduce the core temperature to normal. Therefore, the effect of TTMnorm on cerebral autoregulation before and during cooling was observed.The main measures were the THRR, Mx and TOx during cooling.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (ANTICIPATED)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
January 22, 2021

Primary Completion (ANTICIPATED)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
