New wire for stroke treatment under study
NCT ID NCT06148675
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study created a database of information from 105 stroke patients who had a procedure to remove a large blood clot from the brain. Doctors used a special wire to help guide a tube to the clot. The goal was to see if the wire alone could get the tube to the right spot. This was not a treatment study, but a way to collect data for future improvements.
