Description
Elsayed Abed reports a 2026 conference abstract on clot busting treatment for acute stroke at two hospitals in Egypt. The treatment, given by vein within four and a half hours of stroke onset, can limit brain damage, but use is low in many lower income settings. The study looked back at 167 treated patients from 2014 to 2021.
Most patients were men, with a mean age near 63 years. About three in four improved early, while about one in six got worse early. Bleeding in the brain was the main risk. The author links low use mainly to weak public awareness and hard access to emergency care, and urges stroke teams and faster referral paths.
