Race against time: can clot removal save the most damaged stroke brains?
NCT ID NCT03811769
Summary
This study aimed to find out if a procedure to physically remove a blood clot from the brain (mechanical thrombectomy) could help people who had a severe stroke with a large area of early brain damage. It compared the procedure plus standard medical care against standard medical care alone in 335 adults. The goal was to see if this aggressive approach could improve recovery and reduce long-term disability in these high-risk patients.
