While it still needs approval from Health Canada, if performed, it would be the first time endovascular thrombectomy was performed remotely in the world. It's an advancement that doctors say could have a positive impact for stroke patients in rural parts of Canada, and across the globe.

"This study using an animal model showed that vessel size significantly influences the efficacy of aspiration thrombectomy, with small vessels exhibiting immediate collapse on remote aspiration leading to unsuccessful reperfusion, whereas larger vessels demonstrated successful reperfusion."

Was listening earlier to the 1pm news on the radio in the car. When they reported the development of a remote surgical procedure called a trumpectomy to remove a clot I thought, yep, we definitely need that right now!! 🤣🤣🤣
I guess it must actually be thrombectomy but it did sound like trumpectomy!
