Summary

This study looks at two types of catheters used during a procedure to remove blood clots in stroke patients. Researchers want to see if a balloon guide catheter works better than a conventional one at restoring blood flow quickly. About 100 adults having a stroke thrombectomy will take part, and their recovery will be checked at 3 months.
