Renata Evertz, Senior Director of Scientific Communications, Clinical Research Department at Penumbra, Inc., shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article she and her colleagues co-authored, published in the Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery, adding:
“Proud to share that the primary results of the THUNDER study are now available online in Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery.
This publication represents the first prospective, core lab adjudicated clinical evaluation of CAVT using the Thunderbolt System in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to emergent large vessel occlusion (ELVO).
A heartfelt thank you to our PIs, Dr. Fiorella and Dr. Donald Frei and to all of the investigators and study teams for their dedication and commitment to advancing stroke care.”
