Brief Summary

Stroke is one of the main severe disease of public health importance. Recent studies showed that old age is one of the most important factors in influencing the outcome of patients with acute stroke, and the young plasma can reverse age-related brain impairments in mice. Therefore, this pilot study aims to investigate whether young plasma is effective in alleviating brain injury and neurologic deficits induced by acute stroke in patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Changes in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS)

    describe the clinical improvement at baseline, 7 days, 14 days, 30 days and 90 days

    up to 90 days

  • Changes in modified Barthel Index

    describe the clinical improvement at baseline, 7 days, 14 days, 30 days and 90 days

    up to 90 days

  • Changes in modified Rankin Scale

    describe the clinical improvement at baseline, 7 days, 14 days, 30 days and 90 days

    up to 90 days

  • Changes in Glasgow coma scale

    describe the clinical improvement at baseline, 7 days, 14 days, 30 days and 90 days

    up to 90 days

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Changes in hematoma volume

    At baseline, 7 days, 14 days and 30 days after the onset

  • Change in peripheral edema volume

    At baseline, 7 days, 14 days and 30 days after the onset

Study Arms (2)

young Fresh Frozen Plasma

EXPERIMENTAL

1. Drug: young plasma will be administered as 2 unit /day over a course of 3 consecutive days after stroke onset. 2. Drug: young plasma exchange over a course of 3 consecutive days after stroke onset.

Drug: young Fresh Frozen Plasma

old Fresh Frozen Plasma

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

1. Old plasma will be administered as 2 unit /day over a course of 3 consecutive days after stroke onset. 2. Old plasma exchange over a course of 3 consecutive days after stroke onset. 3. Patients will receive usual care and drug use in hospital.

Drug: old Fresh Frozen Plasma

Interventions
