What this service does for you
The Centre cérébrovasculaire des CHUV is one of the oldest certified Stroke Centers in French-speaking Switzerland. It treats about 250 acute strokes per year with lysis or thrombectomy. Pulse, blood pressure and brain function are monitored closely in six care beds during the first critical days. If necessary, neurosurgery is available in the same building, for example if a brain hemorrhage needs an operation. The certification as a Stroke Center guarantees that the full range of acute treatment is available here around the clock.
