Mosaic Life Care at St. Joseph in Northwest Missouri has unveiled a new interventional neurology and neuroendovascular program that is set to revolutionize stroke care in the region. With the addition of new stroke technologies and a biplane medical device, Mosaic is now equipped to provide cutting-edge, minimally invasive treatments for stroke patients. This program expansion also allows for other invasive and noninvasive procedures to be performed in an interventional suite, improving response times and outcomes for patients.
Dr. Abdallah Amireh, an interventional neurologist at Mosaic, highlights the importance of providing quick and effective care to stroke patients, emphasizing the concept of “time is brain.” The new lab at Mosaic includes a biplane medical device with 3D imaging, allowing for a comprehensive view of the brain and enabling rapid intervention when needed. With the addition of thrombectomy procedures, Mosaic is now able to surgically remove blood clots in the brain caused by ischemic strokes, ultimately saving more lives and reducing the risk of severe brain damage.
This investment in advanced technology and specialized training by Mosaic represents a significant step forward in stroke care for the region. Patients in Northwest Missouri no longer need to travel to other centers for life-saving treatments, as Mosaic is now equipped to provide the highest level of care locally. The addition of new technologies and procedures at Mosaic is changing the landscape of stroke care in the region, ensuring that patients receive the best possible care in a timely manner.
