Blood Pressure Control After Stroke Thrombectomy
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether carefully lowering blood pressure after a mechanical clot removal procedure for stroke can improve outcomes. If you've had a large vessel stroke that was successfully treated with thrombectomy, this study will help guide blood pressure management in the recovery period.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 20 years or older
- You had a stroke caused by a blockage in a large brain artery that was removed with a catheter procedure (thrombectomy)
- The procedure successfully opened the artery (TICI 2b or 3)
- Your blood pressure stayed below 150 mm Hg in the first few hours after the procedure
- You are not pregnant
- You had no significant disability before the stroke (modified Rankin Scale score less than 3)
- You do not have severe heart failure, kidney failure, or other major medical conditions

This trial tests a strategy for managing high blood pressure in people having an acute ischemic stroke who are about to receive clot-busting medication. It aims to see if carefully lowering blood pressure within a specific range improves outcomes.
This trial tests how managing high blood pressure during clot-dissolving treatment for acute ischemic stroke affects recovery. It is for patients who have high blood pressure at the start of treatment.
This study enrolls people who had an acute ischemic stroke (caused by a blood clot) and received emergency treatment to remove the clot. Researchers want to understand why some patients recover well while others don't, by measuring how the brain regulates its own blood flow after treatment.
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 trial tests a simple procedure that may help your brain recover after a stroke. The procedure involves briefly stopping and restarting blood flow in your arm, which may reduce brain damage and improve recovery after the clot removal.
This trial tests if giving a clot-busting drug (tenecteplase) directly into the brain artery after a successful clot-removal procedure can improve outcomes for people with a major stroke. It is for patients who had a large vessel blockage and received endovascular thrombectomy within 24 hours of symptoms starting.
