Brain stem clot removal trial
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests a procedure to remove blood clots from the brain stem using a needle guided by imaging. It is for patients with severe bleeding who are in a coma but still breathing on their own.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a brain stem bleed larger than 5 ml confirmed by CT or MRI scan
- You arrived at the hospital within 24 hours of symptoms starting
- You are in a coma but still breathing on your own
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You have severe neurological symptoms

This trial tests if a minimally invasive surgery guided by a robotic AI system can help people with moderate bleeding deep inside the brain (basal ganglia). If you qualify, the surgery would happen within 72 hours of your stroke.
This trial tests a new, less invasive brain surgery using a robotic arm guided by artificial intelligence (AI) to remove a large blood clot caused by a hemorrhagic stroke in the basal ganglia. It may be an option for people who can have surgery soon after the stroke and were previously independent.
This trial tests a non-invasive ultrasound device to help clear blood clots from the brain after a spontaneous bleed. It may be an option for people with small to medium-sized bleeds who do not need surgery.
This trial tests a rapid procedure to remove a blood clot in the brain after a specific type of stroke. It might help people with a moderate-sized bleed in the front part of the brain if treatment can start within 24 hours.
This trial tests a minimally invasive robot-guided procedure to remove blood clots that develop after stroke treatment. The goal is to reduce brain damage and improve recovery in patients whose condition got worse after initial stroke therapy.
This trial tests a minimally invasive surgery to remove blood clots deep in the brain after a spontaneous bleed. It may help patients with moderate to large bleeds who are at least 18 and up to 80 years old.
