Every year, stroke and TIA have a devastating impact on millions of Americans and their families. The medical and scientific communities are constantly looking for ways to prevent stroke and improve existing treatments. There are no randomized clinical trials of any statistically valid size that have been completed to show any one treatment option superior to another. CLOSURE I is the first clinical trial approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to bring together stroke neurologists and cardiologists to compare two treatments for embolic stroke and determine which is the most effective. This site provides you with information which, when combined with discussions with your doctors and your family, will help you understand what is involved and help you to make a more educated decision. |
