The stroke program monitors outcomes for selected ischemic stroke patients who undergo emergency neuro-interventions. Englewood Health performs emergency thrombectomy procedures. This procedure removes blood clots from a major blood vessel in the brain by using a clot- retrieving catheter. This aims to improve blood flow to the brain.
