Acute Ischemic Stroke Treatment (Mechanical Thrombectomy) (24x7)

An acute ischemic stroke occurs when a blood clot blocks a blood vessel supplying the brain, preventing oxygen and nutrients from reaching brain tissue. This can quickly lead to brain damage if not treated immediately.

Mechanical thrombectomy is an advanced, life-saving procedure used to remove the clot from the blocked artery, restoring normal blood flow to the brain. Rapid treatment significantly improves the chances of recovery and reduces the risk of long-term disability.

Our team provides 24×7 emergency stroke care, ensuring that patients receive timely diagnosis and advanced treatment when every minute counts.

What is Mechanical Thrombectomy?

Mechanical thrombectomy is a minimally invasive endovascular procedure performed to remove large blood clots from brain arteries.

During the procedure:

• A thin catheter is inserted through an artery in the groin or wrist

• The catheter is guided to the blocked brain artery using advanced imaging

• A specialized device is used to capture and remove the clot

• Blood flow to the brain is restored immediately

This treatment is most effective when performed within the first few hours after stroke symptoms begin.

Common Symptoms of Ischemic Stroke

Recognizing stroke symptoms early is crucial for immediate treatment. Warning signs include:

• Sudden weakness or numbness in the face, arm, or leg

• Difficulty speaking or understanding speech

• Sudden vision problems in one or both eyes

• Severe headache with no known cause

• Loss of balance or difficulty walking

If any of these symptoms appear, seek emergency medical care immediately.

Who May Benefit from Mechanical Thrombectomy?

Mechanical thrombectomy may be recommended for patients who:

• Have a large artery blockage in the brain

• Arrive at the hospital within the recommended treatment window

• Show evidence of salvageable brain tissue on imaging scans

• Are not responding adequately to clot-dissolving medications

Advanced imaging techniques help determine the most appropriate treatment.
