Study blood vessel injury after clot removal for stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial looks at how blood flow damage (“reperfusion injury”) happens after mechanical clot removal in certain stroke types. It may help doctors better prevent complications after the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a stroke caused by a blocked large blood vessel in the front part of the brain
- The blockage was in the internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery
- You received mechanical thrombectomy to remove the clot
- You are at least 18 years old
- Your stroke was not caused by a blockage in the basilar artery

This trial looks at how blood flow and brain activity change in the first days after a stroke caused by a large blockage in the front part of the brain. It tests if certain patterns can help predict recovery after a procedure to remove the clot.
This study looks at the blood clots removed from the brain during a procedure called thrombectomy. By studying them, researchers hope to learn more about how to treat strokes and what causes them, which could help improve care.
This study looks at how certain proteins in the blood change after a procedure to remove a large blockage in a brain artery. The goal is to better understand recovery after stroke treatment.
This study measures how well blood flows through the brain after a special procedure to remove a blood clot causing stroke. Researchers use a tiny temperature sensor to understand blood circulation, which may help improve stroke care.
This trial tests if removing clots from smaller arteries in the brain (not the main ones) helps people who had a stroke and can't get standard clot-busting medicine. It compares clot removal to usual care for strokes caused by these medium-sized vessel blockages.
This study uses a special ultrasound test to check blood flow in your brain after you have had a procedure to remove a stroke-causing clot. It aims to see how well the treatment worked and if more help is needed.
