Comparing two catheters for stroke clot removal
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study compares two types of catheters (thin tubes) used during a stroke procedure to remove a blood clot. The goal is to see which one works better for clearing blockages in large blood vessels in the brain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are having a stroke thrombectomy (a procedure to remove a blood clot from your brain).
- Your brain imaging shows a blockage in a large blood vessel (called a large vessel occlusion).
- You are not already in another clinical trial that could interfere with this one.
- You or a legal representative can sign a consent form to participate.

This trial tests a procedure called endovascular thrombectomy (clot removal through a catheter) for people with very large strokes. It aims to see if removing the clot can help even when a large part of the brain is already damaged.
This trial tests a new catheter device (ANA Funnel) for removing large blood clots from the brain in people having a disabling stroke. The goal is to see if it safely removes clots better than standard treatment.
This study tests a special catheter (a thin tube) designed to remove blood clots from large arteries in the brain during a stroke. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective at restoring blood flow.
This trial compares two ways of removing a blood clot from a large artery in the brain during an ischemic stroke. It might help you by finding out which method restores blood flow more safely and effectively.
This study tests a new catheter (a thin tube) that helps doctors remove blood clots from the brain during a stroke. The goal is to see if it is safe and works well to restore blood flow.
This study tests two methods of removing a large blood clot from a brain artery during stroke. The goal is to see which method helps restore blood flow faster and more safely.
