About this trial
This study encompasses the maintenance and utilization of a repository of samples from patients with cerebrovascular disease and stroke. The types of tissue taken are blood, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), tissue, and microdialysis samples. Future analysis of these samples can potentially help investigators to better categorize groups of patients, understand the underlying etiology of these pathologies, identify markers that are associated with favorable or poor outcomes, and track changes that occur during the natural course of the disease or with treatment. This is a prospective observational study which will use samples from such patients to create this library which can be used to explore these questions in the future.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
All patients diagnosed with cerebral vascular disease, regardless of gender, age, ethnicity/race, stage of disease or treatment, are eligible.
Expected availability of clinical follow up data
Participants must be willing to provide written, informed consent obtained in accordance with institutional and federal guidelines.
Disqualifiers
Pregnant women are excluded from the study.
Trial population
All patients diagnosed with cerebrovascular disease. This includes both non-surgical patients (such medically managed ischemic stroke, aneurysms, moyamoya disease, arteriovenous malformation, hemorrhagic stroke, etc.) and surgically treated patients (patients with aneurysm coiling or clipping, arteriovenous malformation resection, direct or indirect revascularization procedures for ischemia, etc.).
