Evaluation of Neurological Outcome in Patients Undergoing Cerebral Angiography and Revascularization Using Angioplasty and Stent-Supported Angioplasty
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Angioplasty, Stent, and 2 other interventions for Carotid Artery Disease and 3 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 108 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine how well patients undergoing carotid artery angioplasty and/or stent-supported angioplasty for the treatment of carotid artery stenosis will perform on a battery of tests to assess brain function before and after the procedure. This study will serve as a pilot project: (a) to determine incidence of neurologic/neuropsychometric change in patients undergoing carotid artery angioplasty and/or stent-supported angioplasty, and (b) to ascertain the time it takes for these changes to resolve.
