NHS England have not undertaken an independent cost benefit analysis of thrombectomy but there have been research studies published such as Jean Ganesalingam et al – “Cost-Utility Analysis of Mechanical Thrombectomy Using Stent Retrievers”, in Acute Ischemic Stroke 2015;46:2591-2598. This showed that it is a highly cost effective treatment, particularly when the longer term health and social care costs are taken into account.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine grouped question UIN 3249 3251 question first answered 13/07/2017 13:02:42 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
