Bailout intracranial angioplasty or stenting following thrombectomy for acute large vessel occlusion in China (ANGEL-REBOOT): a multicentre, open-label, blinded-endpoint, randomised controlled trial - The Lancet Neurology thelancet.com/journals/laneu…

A new study revealed that neurology-trained cath lab techs cut thrombectomy times by 10 mins vs. non-specialists (p=0.004). Faster access→first pass (47% achieved <10 mins).#Stroke care needs specialized training. See more: doi.org/10.1177/159101…

In anterior circulation stroke patients post-thrombectomy, low and medium doses of intra-arterial tenecteplase demonstrated adequate safety to warrant larger trials to investigate their therapeutic potential. ja.ma/45N0IJB

A huge thank you to Uma Kumaran MP and her husband Jacob for sharing their story in today's Daily Express. Stroke has a devastating impact and the 10 Year Health Plan can't come soon enough to ensure stroke survivors get the support they need from onset through to rehabilitation.
