The AHA/ASA guidelines1 recommend the use of endovascular treatment with stent retrievers, like the Solitaire™ device, following
IV t‑PA for eligible patients experiencing acute ischemic stroke (AIS).
Studies prove the Solitaire™ revascularisation device reduces stroke-related disability in patients suffering large vessel AIS following
IV t-PA.2-6
ESC Atrial Fibrillation Guidelines recommend long-term cardiac monitoring for cryptogenic stroke patients.7
SEE THE GUIDELINESReveal™ insertable cardiac monitoring is superior to standard monitoring for AF detection.8
