First seen Apr 19, 2026 · Last updated May 21, 2026 · Updated 10 times
Summary
This study tests whether cooling the head (using a special cap) during emergency stroke treatment can reduce the amount of brain tissue that dies. About 182 adults having a major stroke and undergoing a clot-removal procedure will be randomly assigned to receive either standard care or standard care plus head cooling. The main goal is to see if cooling leads to smaller areas of brain damage on scans taken 24 hours later.
