Even in the face of war, stroke systems of care continue to advance in Ukraine 🇺🇦🧠

An inspiring and sobering overview of the challenges and resilience behind maintaining mechanical thrombectomy services during wartime; from workforce shortages and device limitations to ongoing efforts in education, infrastructure, and national stroke strategy.

Despite extraordinary circumstances, Ukraine has seen major growth in IV thrombolysis, mechanical thrombectomy, CT/MRI access, and stroke systems organization over recent years.

A powerful reminder that commitment to stroke care persists even under the most difficult conditions. #Stroke #Ukraine #MissionThrombectomy #Neurointervention #StrokeCare #GlobalHealth #MechanicalThrombectomy #WorldThrombectomyDay #LVO #Endovascular

🏥 В 2024 році МОЗ і НСЗУ почали аудити медзакладів, що мають право лікувати інсульти. Як саме відбувалися перевірки і які знайшли порушення? І що буде з медзакладами, у яких порушення критичні?
