New hope for severe strokes: can a common steroid boost recovery?

NCT ID NCT07175649

Summary

This study is testing if adding a steroid medication (methylprednisolone) to the standard emergency procedure to remove a stroke-causing blood clot helps people recover better. It will involve 912 adults who have had a severe stroke with a large area of brain damage. The goal is to see if the combination treatment leads to more people regaining independence 90 days after their stroke.
