New nerve fiber sensors stroke type
Researchers in France and Australia have developed a wired device equipped with electrical sensors that can identify the characteristics of stroke blood clots and map their structure in real time during removal. The wire, which is inserted into the artery via a catheter, measures the electrical properties of red blood cells, platelets, and the arterial wall, enabling it to distinguish between different types of clots quickly and with high accuracy. Experiments involving 41 patients showed that the device achieved up to 97% accuracy in identifying red blood cell-rich clots and 94% for platelet-rich clots, with no complications such as vessel perforation or tearing. This technology helps doctors determine the type and composition of the clot before treatment, facilitating the selection of the most appropriate therapy and improving patient outcomes.
