Summary

This study tests whether using a balloon guide catheter that temporarily stops blood flow helps remove clots more effectively in people having a stroke caused by a blocked internal carotid artery. About 364 adults will be randomly assigned to receive either the balloon catheter or standard care during a procedure to remove the clot. The main goal is to see if the balloon catheter leads to complete blood flow restoration on the first attempt.
