Built from the registry fields of ClinicalTrials.gov. It describes the study, not your situation.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Contraindication to discontinuing mineralocorticoid antagonist therapy for 3-12 months per the investigator's discretion (e.g., refractory proteinuria)

Other illness

  • Known hypersensitivity to spironolactone
  • Any condition which, in the judgement of the investigator, increases the risk to the patient
  • History of Addison's disease

Lab values

  • eGFR \<45
  • Serum potassium greater than or equal to the upper limit of normal of the lab on the two most recent consecutive potassium levels prior to enrollment

Other

  • Secondary ICH due to trauma, vascular malformation, or tumor
  • Life expectancy \< 1 year
  • Upper arm greater than 17 inches in circumference
  • Pregnancy, planned pregnancy, or breastfeeding
  • Systolic BP \>200 mmHg or diastolic BP \>110 mmHg at the time of randomization
  • Systolic BP \<120 mmHg at the time of randomization

Who the study is looking for

  • Age ≥ 18 years
  • Symptomatic ICH confirmed by head CT or brain MRI during hospitalization OR ischemic stroke patients. Ischemic stroke will be defined by focal signs/symptoms of any duration associated with evidence of acute arterial infarction on neuroimaging or clinical evidence of cerebral focal arterial ischemic injury with symptoms persisting ≥ 24 hours.
  • Written, informed consent by patient or surrogate
  • Ability to comply with all study procedures and available for the duration of the study

Age in the registry: 18 years to - · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
