Long-Term Epilepsy Outcomes in Children With a History of Perinatal Stroke
Perinatal stroke is a rare condition affecting approximately 20-40 births per 100,000. It may be ischemic or hemorrhagic and can occur before or around birth, with diagnosis sometimes delayed until motor or cognitive symptoms emerge.
This is an observational study. You are not assigned a new experimental drug. Researchers measure what already happens in your care or in daily life.
Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.
What the registry says happens
This listing is observational (StudyType). The registry does not assign a new experimental drug as the study intervention.
They plan to enroll about 120 people at Strasbourg. Taking part typically means study visits and measurements plus check-ins.
Official title (unrewritten)
Long-Term Epilepsy Outcomes in Children With a History of Perinatal Stroke
Primary outcome (registry wording): Drug-Resistant Epilepsy at 6 Years of Age
Who it is for (from inclusion criteria)
Ages 5 Years to 25 Years
Minors aged 5 to under 18 years or adults aged 18 to 25 years
Patients who attended one of the two participating centers: Strasbourg University Hospitals or Necker Hospital (AP-HP)
Confirmed or suspected ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke occurring before 28 days of age

Who the registry excludes
Birth before 34 weeks of gestation
Birth weight below 1,500 g
Perinatal hypoxic-ischemic injury with residual MRI lesions
Objective: This protocol is designed to allow the Surgical Neurology Branch to evaluate and treat the neurosurgical disorders of protocol participants. The participants will receive standard-of-clinical-care evaluation and treatment.
Background: \- Drug resistant epilepsy is the term used to describe epilepsy that cannot be controlled by medication. Many people whose seizures do not respond to medication will respond to surgical treatment, relieving seizures completely or almost completely in one-half to two-thirds of patients who qualify for surgery.
The Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford (CoRDS) is an international patient registry that serves as a centralized resource for rare disease research. Individuals affected by rare diseases, undiagnosed conditions, and disorders of unknown prevalence may voluntarily contribute health information to support natural history studies, participant recruitment, and other research efforts.
