“When they performed the area's first advanced procedure for an unruptured brain aneurysm using only a tiny metal spring. Endovascular coiling is a procedure to treat aneurysms from inside the blood vessel. Small coils are inserted into the aneurysm through the arteries that run from the groin to the brain. The coils are made of soft platinum metal and shaped like a spring. They are very small and thin with the largest about twice the width of a human hair. These coils stop the blood from flowing into the aneurysm. Depending on the size of the aneurysm, more than one coil may be needed to completely seal off the aneurysm. It is the technology of the neurointerventional bi-plane suite that allows the physician to perform the coiling procedure and prevents them from having to perform open brain surgery. A new emergency department and chest pain center opened up on the mrmc campus in june 2021. Also in 2021, mcleod physicians performed the area's first thrombectomy. The medical experts at mcleod saved a patient from the devastating effects of stroke by removing a blood clot from his brain. The first thrombectomy procedure at mcleod was performed in a dedicated neurointerventional bi-plane x-ray suite that opened at mcleod regional medical center in late 2020. The bi-plane imaging system produces highly detailed three-dimensional views of blood vessels heading to the brain and deep within the brain. This technology allows doctors to follow the blood flow path to the exact location of the issue. Designed for the emergency treatment of stroke patients, the suite is equipped with the most advanced medical imaging technologies available. In 2023, mcleod opened a new dedicated electrophysiology device lab at mrmc.
