What this service does for you

The Stroke Center at Universitätsspital Basel admits people with a suspected stroke day and night. A specialized team from neurology, neuroradiology, and neurosurgery checks immediately if a lysis therapy or a mechanical thrombectomy is needed to reopen the blood vessel. In the following days, the patients are cared for in a specialized monitoring unit to detect complications early. As a certified Stroke Center, the entire treatment chain from emergency care to complex surgery is available in one place in Basel.
