First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 19, 2026 · Updated 39 times
Summary
This study will use transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound to measure blood flow in the brains of 100 people who had a stroke and underwent endovascular therapy (clot removal). The goal is to see if TCD readings can predict complications like bleeding or brain swelling in the days after treatment. Participants will have TCD exams daily for three days after their procedure. If TCD proves useful, it could help doctors catch problems earlier and improve recovery.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound measurement
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors identify stroke patients at risk of worsening after treatment, allowing earlier intervention and better outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is an early observational study with only 100 participants, so results may not apply to all stroke patients. TCD may not detect all complications.
