Ended Therapeutic use (Phase IV) Acute Ischemic Stroke

HOPE study

EU CTIS ID: 2024-516642-19-01

What this study is testing

Compare the clinical benefit of standard blood pressure management after mechanical thrombectomy versus a specific protocol aimed at hemodynamic optimization, where blood pressure targets are applied based on the degree of recanalization achieved during the procedure.
