Study Summary

This is a randomized open-label, with blinded outcome pilot study to evaluate the effect on inflammatory laboratory values and explore clinical outcomes in patients who present with ischemic strokes due to large vessel occlusions and are treated with either current accepted management, or accepted management in addition to transcutaneous auricular vagal nerve stimulation.

Primary Outcome

The primary endpoint was change in inflammatory biomarkers from baseline to day 5, with samples obtained every 1.5 days. Interleukin-1β was the main analyte. Repeated measures were analyzed longitudinally using mixed-effects models (FDA guidance), specifying subject as a random effect to account for multiple observations. This approach accommodated irregular timing, missing data, and time-varying covariates. Models included treatment, time since last known normal, and their interaction to test g

Interventions

  • DEVICE transcutaneous auricular vagal nerve stimulation
  • DEVICE Sham transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation
