Researchers say that devices used to close off the heart's left atrial appendage appear as good as anti-coagulation drugs for treating certain patients with an increased risk of having a stroke.

Clot Extractors Shown Beneficial In Stroke Patients
Three new studies offer important additional evidence that early treatment with current thrombectomy devices that extract clots from blood vessels in the brain can lead to improved outcomes in carefully selected stroke patients. The trials were stopped early based on efficacy following positive findings last year from another trial, MR CLEAN. The three new trials were presented today at the AHA/ASA International Stroke Conference in Nashville; two of the trials were published simultaneously in the New England Journal of Medicine.

Thomas Henry Huxley As the stroke community is invigorated by the recent results of the four trials showing the overwhelming efficacy of endovascular therapy for large vessel occlusion,1–4 we should reflect upon lessons that were learned that may help future clinical initiatives. It has been almost 16 years since the PROACT-II trial showed a 15% absolute difference in outcomes in patients treated with intra-arterial pro-urokinase for a middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion compared with medic...
