Gospel for Stroke Patients: the Artiria Guidewire

Author: Zhiyuan Li

Stroke, affecting over 12.2 million people globally each year, poses a significant healthcare challenge with billions spent on its treatment. Immediate thrombolytic therapy or surgical intervention is crucial to minimize damage, given that nearly 2 million neurons are damaged every minute during a stroke. Mechanical thrombectomy, a primary option for ischemic stroke treatment, involves removing thrombus at the embolic site to restore blood supply. However, reaching the cerebral vascular embolism site quickly is vital. Artiria Medical's new guide wire, Artiria, addresses this challenge with real-time deflection, adaptability to cerebral vessels, and improved traceability. Its features, including an adjustable guide wire, detachable handle, and advanced headend technology, enhance accuracy, flexibility, and contact with neurovascular targets. The faster and more flexible Artiria guide wire promises improved postoperative prognosis, reduced rehabilitation costs, and better outcomes for stroke patients.
