OPeN seCRET: Optimizing Pragmatic, Novel strategies for iCTs in CeREbral venous Thrombosis
FY 2023-24
Summary
Cerebral venous thrombosis, clotting in the draining veins of the brain, is a rare stroke type that most commonly affects younger adults, usually women. Up to 15% will die or need others to help them with day-to-day activities, and up to 1 in 10 will develop epilepsy. The majority of survivors will have issues with thinking, headache, mood and fatigue that can affect their recovery journey.
We are partnering with patients to learn about better ways to study this rare cause of stroke, including (1) how to include as many people as possible in research who have with CVT from around the world, (2) better ways to include usual health care data in CVT research, and (3) priorities in studying CVT that matter to patients, and the best ways to measure these.
