First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study tests a new device called the Adaptive Tip Catheter for removing blood clots in people having a severe stroke. About 74 adults will receive the catheter procedure within 24 hours of stroke symptoms. The goal is to see if the device can restore blood flow in the brain with fewer attempts and without needing extra treatments.
