NCT00577954

Brief Summary

Stroke, traumatic head injury, subarachnoid hemorrhage and cerebral anoxia are main causes of a coma condition implying severe brain damage and thus, poor prognosis. Clinicians are often in need for a tool able to predict the awakening of these patients. Multimodal MRI, associating the traditional morphological sequences with spectroscopy-MRI (MRS) and the diffusion tensor imaging, could provide such a prediction.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • To define a quantified indicator resulting from the analysis of the multimodal MRI combined with clinical data to create a score to predict the 1 year outcome as measured by the dichotomized Glasgow Outcome Scale (extended version [GOSE]).

    one year

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Relevance of the composite score to predict the clinical outcome at 1 year assessed by the Rankin score, the GOSE and the disability rating scale (DRS).

    one year

  • Intra and inter-observer reproducibility study of the analysis of the various sequences.

    during the study

Study Arms (1)

1

Patients in a coma condition after a traumatic brain injury (250), stroke, cerebral anoxia or subarachnoid hemorrhage (150), for at least 7 days.

Procedure: Multimodal MRI

Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Traumatic brain injured patients, stroke patients, subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) patients and cerebral anoxia patients

You may qualify if:

  • Adult affiliated to the social security system
  • Hospitalized in neuroICU and requiring artificial ventilation following a severe cranial trauma, an ischemic and/or hemorrhagic cerebrovascular accident and/or a cerebral anoxia
  • In coma defined as not answering simple orders at least 7 days after the event
  • Receiving an amount of sedatives and not being able to explain the coma
  • Having a standardized intracranial pressure (≤ 15 mm Hg) and in absence of severe hemodynamic or respiratory failure so that the MRI does not represent any additional danger

You may not qualify if:

  • Coma of infectious or toxic origin
  • Coma explained by sedation
  • MRI contraindication (pace maker, medical material not MRI compatible)
  • Persistent intracranial hypertension contraindicating the setting in prolonged dorsal decubitus (ICP \> 20 mm Hg during more than 10 minutes after positioning on decubitus)
  • Severe hemodynamic failure
  • Severe respiratory failure
  • Life threatening extra-cerebral lesions
  • Cranial trauma of ballistic origin
  • Patient presenting a severe compromise of a major function bringing into play the vital outcome, with invalidity before the accident/event
  • Former neurological pathology altering the clinical outcome of the cranial trauma
  • Refusal of the family
  • Patient protected by the law (under supervision or trusteeship)
