Summary

This study looks at whether a procedure called endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) helps people who already have a moderate-to-severe disability and then have a major stroke. About 1,060 adults will be randomly assigned to get EVT or standard medical care. The goal is to see if EVT improves their recovery or quality of life after the stroke.
