Changes in Physical, Cognitive and Emotional Function 5 and 10 Years After Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (aSAH)
Norway112 participantsStarted 2016-06
Plain-language summary
The current study is a continuation of the study "Effect of early rehabilitation in patients with acute aSAH" which was approved by the Regional Committee for Medical Research Ethics, South-East Norway, archive number 2011/2189, Clinical Trials number 0925-0586 (Clinical Trials gov. identifier NCT01656317). The original study was a prospective, controlled, interventional study comprising patients managed at the neuro-intermediate ward following repair of a ruptured intracranial aneurysm in 2011-2012. 157 patients signed the informed consent form and were included in the study. Patients were assessed in the acute phase, as well as a 3 and 12 months post ictus. The main research goal of the present study will be to assess physical, cognitive and emotional function 5 and 10 years after aSAH in the 2011-2012 population. In addition we will also describe quality of life and work-status along with the time-course of recovery from the acute sage after aSAH to the chronic phase.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
