Mechanical Thrombectomy Cadaveric Training.

To support the expansion of mechanical thrombectomy training in England, dedicated training academies will be established. Led by Keele University, the program is approved by the General Medical Council (GMC) and will receive funding for four years, running from April 2025 to March 2029. It is designed to address workforce shortages by providing specialised training to a range of healthcare professionals-including neurosurgeons, cardiologists, and stroke physicians. This initiative will help ensure the provision of 24/7 stroke thrombectomy services across the UK.
