Recovery after stroke treatment with a clot-removal procedure
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial studies how the brain and nervous system recover about 3 months after a clot-removal treatment for an acute ischemic stroke. It may help doctors better understand what recovery looks like after this kind of stroke care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had an acute ischemic stroke (a stroke caused by a blocked blood vessel)
- You received endovascular treatment (a clot-removal procedure done through a catheter)
- This treatment happened during this stroke episode and is the one being studied

This trial compares a procedure to remove a large blood clot from the brain (thrombectomy) with standard medical care for people who had a stroke 24 to 72 hours ago but still have some blood flow around the clot. It aims to see if the procedure can help improve recovery even when started later than usual.
This trial studies whether an endovascular (catheter-based) procedure to treat a certain type of blocked artery can improve outcomes for people who already had trouble functioning before their stroke. You may be considered if your stroke is confirmed early and your scans show the right type and location of blockage.
This trial tests if a procedure to remove a large blood clot from the brain (called a thrombectomy) can help people with severe strokes who have a large damaged area. It is for people who can be treated within 24 hours of their stroke starting.
This trial tests if removing a large blood clot from the brain up to 3 days after a stroke improves recovery compared to standard medical care alone. It is for patients who have a severe stroke and are otherwise healthy enough for the procedure.
This study records outcomes for people having an acute ischemic stroke treated with an endovascular (catheter-based) procedure. It may help doctors understand how clot-removal treatment works in different patients and hospitals.
This trial tests whether a special blood-flow technique applied right after removing a clot from your brain artery can help you recover better from stroke. You would receive this treatment during your clot-removal procedure if you qualify.
