Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, 2021 was still notorious and the stroke research group has continued its intense clinical research activity. Thus, the results of the RACECAT clinical trial demonstrated the equivalence of the different patient referral protocols for mechanical thrombectomy. In addition, we have consolidated the FLOWCAT project for an in vitro mechanical thrombectomy model, being a reference center for the training and development of 3D printing models of thrombectomy. We also included the first patients in WE-TRUST, a randomized multicenter clinical trial that will study whether a new, faster workflow can improve the outcome of stroke patients.
