ABSTRACT
The proved feasibility of robotic-assisted endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms has stimulated the idea of a potential application of remote robotics for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. The possibility of developing a more advanced remote-controlled robotic system capable of performing a complete mechanical thrombectomy procedure would help bridge the health care gap of lack of technical expertise in isolated areas. This possibility could allow a more equitable access to mechanical thrombectomy to a larger number of patients and be a breakthrough for acute ischemic stroke care worldwide. Many aspects around the technical, human, financial, and regulatory requirements should be discussed to implement remote robotic-assisted procedures. In this State of Practice article, we aimed to outline the major challenges that must be considered, as well as proposed solutions. However, different solutions may be applied in different health care systems on the basis of the availability of human and financial resources.
