Design of Randomized, double ‐blind, Evaluation in secondary Stroke Prevention comparing the EfficaCy and safety of the oral Thrombin inhibitor dabigatran etexilate vs. acetylsalicylic acid in patients with Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source (RE‐SPECT ESUS)
DiscussionAcetylsalicylic acid is the most common antithrombotic given to patients with embolic strokes of undetermined source to reduce recurrence risk. This trial will determine whether anticoagulation with dabigatran is more effective than acetylsalicylic acid, and acceptably safe. (Source: International Journal of Stroke)

Neurothrombectomy trial results: stroke systems, not just devices, make the difference
The overwhelming benefit demonstrated in the four recent randomized trials comparing intra‐arterial therapies to medical management alone will have a transformative effect on the emergent management of strokes throughout the world. New generation neurothrombectomy devices were critical to trial success, but not the sole driver of patient outcomes in these trials. Patients in the positive trials were treated at hospitals with complex, efficient, resource‐rich, team‐based stroke systems in place. To ensure attainment of trial results in actual practice, patients should receive treatment at facilities certified as havin...
