What this service does for you

The Stroke Unit at HFR Fribourg is the main point of contact for people with a stroke in the canton of Fribourg. After arrival at the hospital, an imaging scan of the brain is done immediately to decide if lysis therapy can be started. During the first few days, a specialised team closely monitors the heart, circulation and neurological condition to detect complications early. As a certified Stroke Unit, the HFR works closely with a Stroke Center in more complex cases, for example when a thrombectomy is needed.
