Description
Silvana Albisu, Abayuba Perna, Daniel Pedrosa, and Eliana Lanzani wrote a 2025 study on access to stroke treatment in Uruguay. The treatment, mechanical thrombectomy, pulls a clot from a brain artery and can save brain tissue if done fast. It is costly and complex, so a national fund pays for it in set cases.
The team read all requests sent to the fund from November 2021 to April 2024. Of 159 people who applied, 132 got full funding and five got partial funding. Five did not meet the rules, and 17 cases stayed open. The authors compare the counts with the number of strokes expected in the country. They use the gap to show where access still fails and why real-world data help close it.
