Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A stroke occurs when the blood circulation is hampered due an ischemic or hemorrhagic event. Previous, a stroke was treated only with anti-aggregation. Over time, multiple studies have showed a positive effect of intravenous thrombolysis with rt-PA (recombinant tissue plasminogen activator) in comparison with the standard treatment (anti-aggregation). Since 2015, thrombectomy was proven to have an added value in combination with thrombolysis. Thrombectomy is an endovascular technique where the thrombus is removed or fragmented.

Diagnosis and treatment of stroke will have a significant impact on the health-economic status of the patient. However, little data is known. Unfortunately, the outcome after diagnosis with a stroke is not well documented. Therefore, this follow-up study over a time period of one year, will give us a sufficient amount of data to evaluate patients diagnosed with a stroke in the hospital of Genk.
