NCT03821181

Brief Summary

Moyamoya disease is a common reason of transient ischemic attack (TIA) and stroke in children. Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has been shown to prevent recurrent stroke in intracranial arterial stenosis, but it is unclear whether RIC can prevent TIA or stroke in children with moyamoya disease. This study aims to evaluate the effect of RIC on TIA/stroke in children with moyamoya disease.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • The incidence rate of transient ischemic attack(TIA)

    TIA means transient ischemic attack, two neurologists will evaluate patients with ischemic symptoms and make diagnosis.magnetic reasoning imaging (MRI) scan will be performed to confirm intracerebral hemorrhage, and the imaging will be evaluated by two independent neuroradiologists who are blinded to the study assignment.

    during baseline to 12months after therapy

  • The incidence rate of ischemic stroke

    Two neurologists will evaluate patients with ischemic symptoms and make diagnosis.magnetic reasoning imaging (MRI) scan will be performed to confirm intracerebral hemorrhage, and the imaging will be evaluated by two independent neuroradiologists who are blinded to the study assignment.

    during baseline to 12months after therapy

Secondary Outcomes (24)

  • Cerebral perfusion

    change from baseline to 12months after therapy

  • The mean blood flow velocity of cerebral vascular detected by TCCD

    changes form baseline to 6months,12months after therapy

  • The score of National Institute of Health stroke scale score

    during baseline to 12months after therapy

  • The score of Modified Rankin scale score

    during baseline to 12months after therapy

  • Incidence rate of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage

    during baseline to 12months after therapy

  • +19 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

RIC group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients allocated to the RIC group will undergo RIC procedure during which bilateral arm cuffs are inflated to a pressure of 50 mmHg over systolic blood pressure for five cycles of 5 min followed by 5 min of relaxation of the cuffs.

Device: RIC group

sham group

SHAM COMPARATOR

patients allocated to the sham group will undergo a sham RIC procedure during which bilateral arm cuffs are inflated to a pressure of 30 mmHg for five cycles of 5 min, followed by 5 min of relaxation of the cuffs.

Device: Sham group

You may qualify if:

  • Severe hemostatic disorder or severe coagulation dysfunction
  • Patients with unilateral MMD or the presence of secondary moyamoya phenomenon caused by autoimmune disease, Down syndrome, neurofibromatosis, leptospiral infection, or previous skull-base radiation therapy
  • Any of the following cardiac disease - rheumatic mitral and or aortic stenosis, prosthetic heart valves, atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, sick sinus syndrome, left atrial myxoma, patent foramen ovale, left ventricular mural thrombus or valvular vegetation, congestive heart failure, bacterial endocarditis, or any other cardiovascular condition interfering with participation
  • Serious, advanced, or terminal illnesses with anticipated life expectancy of less than one year
  • Patient participating in a study involving other drug or device trial study
  • Patients with existing neurological or psychiatric disease that would confound the neurological or functional evaluations
  • Unlikely to be available for follow-up for 3 months
  • Contraindication for RIC - severe soft-tissue injury, fracture, or peripheral vascular disease in the upper limbs.
