NCT02099383

Brief Summary

The investigators' preliminary findings suggest that providing patients with acute ischemic stroke hydration therapy on the basis of their presenting BUN/Cr ratio may help reduce the occurrence of stroke-in-evolution(SIE) and therefore improve prognosis. The trial will be carried out in two parts. Part 1 assesses the rate of stroke-in-evolution 72 hours after the onset of stroke as a measure of the activity of BUN/Cr ratio based hydration therapy. Part 2, The investigators use two outcome measures, including Barthel index, and modified Rankin scale for neurological evaluation to assess whether BUN/Cr ratio based hydration therapy results in sustained clinical benefit at three months.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • rate of stroke-in-evolution

    Stroke-in-evolution is defined as a deterioration from base line in the score on the NIHSS by 4 or more points.

    72 hours

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • rate of favorable outcome

    three months

Study Arms (2)

normal saline, bolus

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients of study group will receive intravenous normal saline 20cc per kilogram of body weight, one third of which will be given as a bolus followed by delivery of the remaining two third as a constant infusion over a period of 8 hours.

Other: normal saline

normal saline, control

NO INTERVENTION

Patients of control group will receive intravenous normal saline 60 cc per hour.

Interventions

intravenous normal saline 20cc per kilogram of body weight over a period of 8 hours
