Neurological Emergencies Treatment Trials (NETT)

描述(由申请人提供)：我们的目标是参与神经紧急情况治疗试验(NETT)网络，以改善神经紧急情况患者的预后。我们的目标与NETT的目标一致。NETT东南协作将1)促进成人或儿童各种神经疾病(脑血管疾病、癫痫发作、急性中枢神经系统感染、急性神经肌肉疾病和创伤)的高质量临床试验；2)在急诊内科医生、神经科医生、神经外科医生、创伤专家、神经放射科医生和神经强化专家之间现有合作的基础上，建立新的合作关系；3)通过与社区和当地医院的积极合作，促进新疗法在临床实践中的实施。我们与许多这样的医院进行了积极的合作，其中大多数医院都在我们自己的埃默里大学项目中培训了急诊医学和神经病学教员住院医师。我们的具体目标是：1。开发用于神经急诊的临床试验的基础设施。2.建立能够进行高效、高质量临床试验的大容量医院区域协作网络。3.招募广泛的参与者，特别是少数群体。4.促进将研究成果转化为临床实践，特别是社区医院，并得到急诊医生的普遍认可。NETT SEC汇集了大量的城市和郊区医院，在多种族地区进行突破性的神经急救研究方面拥有良好的专业知识和经验记录。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Our objective is to participate in the Neurological Emergencies Treatment Trials (NETT) network in order to improve outcomes for patients with neurological emergencies. Our goals align with those of the NETT. The NETT Southeastern Collaborative will 1) facilitate high-quality clinical trials in a wide variety of neurological diseases (cerebrovascular disorders, epileptic seizures, acute infections of the CNS, acute neuromuscular disorders and trauma) in adults or children; 2) build on existing and create new collaborations between emergency medicine physicians, neurologists, neurosurgeons, trauma specialists, neuroradiologists, and neuro-intensivists in the development and conduct of clinical trials, 3) facilitate the implementation of new therapies into clinical practice by active collaborations with community and local hospitals. We have active collaborations with many of these hospitals, a majority of which have emergency medicine and neurology faculty residency trained at our own program at Emory University. Our Specific Aims are: 1. To develop an infrastructure to conduct clinical trials in neurological emergencies. 2. To develop a regional collaborative network of high volume hospitals capable of conducting efficient and high quality clinical trials. 3. To recruit a broad range of participants, particularly minorities. 4. To facilitate the transfer of research results to clinical practice, especially to community hospital settings, and the general endorsement by emergency medicine physicians. The NETT SEC brings together an extensive array of high volume urban and sub-urban hospitals with a well established tract record of expertise and experience in conducting ground breaking research in neurological emergencies in a multiracial region.
