#Stroke is a devastating medical emergency that can happen to anyone, at any time – and always requires rapid intervention. Mark Calvit started experiencing severe stroke symptoms and was unable to move or call for help. Luckily, his mailman was nearby and able to recognize the signs of stroke and call 9-11 on his behalf. He was quickly transported to Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center: a comprehensive stroke center in Baton Rouge, where he received a life-saving stroke thrombectomy from Dr. J. Michael Barraza Jr., using the #ZoomStrokeSolution. ? “Within 15 seconds of that clot being removed, everything came back,” Mark said. “All of my symptoms were gone immediately and I heard the doctor saying that they had gotten the clot." ? Mark's story serves as an important reminder to learn the #SignsofStroke and seek immediate treatment at a nearby comprehensive stroke center if you or a loved one is experiencing a stroke.

In honor of #WorldStrokeDay, we continue to elevate the voices of #strokesurvivors who remind us of our mission– to improve the quality of life for people affected by stroke. Katherine, a librarian, wife, and stroke survivor, recounts her stroke journey from arriving at the hospital to recovering at home with Kandu. “It was so valuable to me to know that there were people who knew what I was going through,” she says. “I’m proud of all I’ve done, but I wouldn’t have been able to do it without Kandu’s support.” Hear more from Katherine and many other stroke survivors at https://lnkd.in/ggTYgXrP #EmpoweringStrokeSurvivors

Last week, the #ImperativeCare team came together to increase awareness of the devastating impact of #bloodclots in honor of #WTD24. Although many cases are preventable, 1 in 4 people die of #thrombosis. We enjoyed competing in a #WorldThrombosisDay Challenge, which aimed to educate team members on thrombosis prevention and support healthy habits. Thank you to everyone who participated and congrats to our winners! #MoveAgainstThrombosis

This week we mourn the loss of our cofounder,?Dr.?Leo?Nelson "Nick" Hopkins after a very long and courageous battle with cancer.?Nick was a dear friend to many of us, and a treasured Board member, but he was much more than that. He was one of the giants of neurovascular medicine – a pioneer in the field of minimally-invasive treatments, a teacher and mentor to hundreds of physicians, a true visionary and entrepreneur, and a devoted humanitarian whose rare clinical gifts and dedication touched the lives of thousands of patients. Nick’s legacy lives on through our work here at Imperative Care, and his dream of giving patients a better chance at full recovery remains?central to our?mission.
