Stroke study: can a quick blood flow pause boost brain recovery?
NCT ID NCT06967025
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a technique called ischemic postconditioning in 60 stroke patients who already had a procedure to remove a clot. After the clot was removed, doctors briefly stopped and restarted blood flow in the affected artery four times. The goal was to see if this extra step could reduce brain damage and improve recovery. The study also looked at blood markers to understand how the technique might work.
