The SMARTChip Stroke Study
SMARTChip: A Field Deployable Blood Test for Stroke, Capable of Detecting Brain Ischaemia From the Earliest Stages of Pathology
Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability in the UK and currently costs the country £7bn per year. There is an overwhelming need to accurately and rapidly triage patients to allow best use of finite NHS specialist resources for the treatment of stroke.
A simple blood test of substances (the purines) that result from cellular metabolism and are produced in excess when brain cells are starved of oxygen and glucose (as occurs during a stroke) is proposed. The sensors designed by the investigators are used to measure blood purines during a procedure in which blood flow to the brain is reduced to allow surgical interventions on the major arteries that supply the brain. Previous studies by the investigators have shown that as soon as blood flow to the brain is reduced, purines are produced within minutes and are detectable in systemic arterial blood.
The current project will now compare the levels of purines in the blood of stroke patients and controls. The purines will be measured on admission to hospital and 24 hours later. The occurrence and magnitude of a stroke will be determined by an MRI scan given between 24 and 72hrs after admission. This study will establish whether purines are elevated in the blood of stroke patients on admission to hospital compared to healthy controls, and whether this correlates with the size of the stroke and damage to the brain.

Подробное описание
Stroke patients will be prospectively recruited to the trial on admission to A&E. The patient will undergo normal clinical assessment and treatment for stroke. As soon after admission as possible, a finger-prick blood sample will be taken from the patient and the SMARTChip device will be used to measure the levels of purines in the sample. A medical history of factors relevant to the purine test will also be established. This will include factors such as any medications that might alter purine levels, a prior history of strokes, diabetes, a history (individual or family) of gout, and when they last had food. The patient will also be given a CT head scan as part of their normal treatment.
In sub-set of patients repeated blood samples (once per hour for 6 hours) will be taken to gain information on how purine levels may change in blood following a stroke. In all patients, the blood purines will be re-tested at 24h (±3h).
All patients will be offered the option of an MRI brain scan at 24-72h post-admission and recruitment will continue until 100 patients with MRI measurements have been enrolled. The flexibility in the timing of the scan is to allow scheduling of the scan to fit in with other demands on the MRI. The purpose of the scan is to identify the nature of the cerebrovascular event and quantify any infarction or area of brain bleeding.
Control participants will give blood on 2 occasions 24h apart for a purine test. The purpose of this control is two-fold: 1) to establish the variability of blood purines in healthy controls and 2) to test whether stroke patients have elevated blood purine levels compared to healthy controls.
Healthy volunteer feeding controls will give a baseline blood sample, eat a simple purine rich meal (a meat sandwich) and then give 4 more blood samples at 10, 30, 60 and 120 minutes following the meal. The purpose of this control is to test whether ingestion of a recent meal might alter baseline blood purine measurements.
Main study patients recruited at University Hospitals North Midlands NHS Trust will also be given the option of participating in the Spasticity and Pharmacokinetic sub-studies. Participants taking part in the Spasticity sub-study will provide an additional blood sample to measure biomarkers and will undergo a spasticity assessment at admission, 24h, 72h, 7d and one or two clinic visits between 30-90d post-admission. Participants taking part in the pharmacokinetic sub-group will provide an additional blood sample for measurement of glutamate and other biomarkers at admission, 24h, 72h, 7d and 30-90d post-admission.
