Race against time: can clot removal help the most severe strokes?

NCT ID NCT03811769

Summary

This study tested whether mechanically removing a blood clot from the brain could help people who have suffered a very large, severe stroke. It enrolled 335 adults who had a major stroke caused by a blocked artery and arrived at the hospital within 7 hours. The goal was to see if this procedure could reduce long-term disability compared to standard medical care alone.
