NCT ID NCT05645861
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether carefully managing blood pressure during a clot-removal procedure for stroke can improve patient recovery. About 550 people having emergency clot retrieval will have their systolic blood pressure kept within a specific target range. Researchers will then check their level of disability 90 days later to see if this approach leads to better outcomes.

Active substance
blood pressure management procedure
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a standard way to manage blood pressure during clot retrieval, potentially improving recovery for stroke patients.
What could go wrong
This is a single trial with 550 participants, and the best blood pressure target is still unknown. Results may not apply to all stroke types or hospitals.
