Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
changes in lesion volumebaseline to day 7measured by MRI
changes in hemorrhage volumebaseline to day 7measured by MRI
changes in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS)baseline to day 7The NIHSS score ranges from 0 to 42 points. The higher the score, the more severe the neurological impairment.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The Modified Rankin Scale (mRS)day1The mRS score ranges from 0 to 7 points. The higher the score, the more severe the neurological recovery state of stroke patients.
National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS)day 3The NIHSS score ranges from 0 to 42 points. The higher the score, the more severe the neurological impairment.
