Stroke & Aneurysm Care

Every second counts when it comes to treating strokes and aneurysms. That’s why our fellowship-trained, board-certified neuro specialists work fast to provide advanced treatments that aim to prevent death and disability.

  • Stroke & Aneurysm Care

Advanced Treatments from Neuro Experts

At Wellstar, we know getting fast, expert stroke care can mean the difference between life, death or lasting damage. That’s why our highly skilled neuro specialists work together as a team to treat strokes quickly, safely and effectively with leading technology. Our multidisciplinary team is made up of fellowship-trained vascular neurologists, cerebrovascular neurosurgeons, neurocritical care intensivists, neuroradiologists and neuro acute care advance practitioners. Our approach to stroke care allows for rapid diagnosis and advanced treatment when patients need it most — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

As the leading provider of stroke and aneurysm services in Georgia, our neuro team performs one of the highest numbers of thrombectomy and aneurysm treatments in the country. Across our network of Joint Commission Stroke certified hospitals, we offer advanced treatments including complex surgery, minimally-invasive neuroendovascular procedures, tenecteplase (TNK) therapy, artificial intelligence (AI) enabled brain imaging and telestroke services.

  • Neurological Rehabilitation
Minimally-Invasive Treatment
Wellstar is one of only four programs in the state that offer neuroendovascular treatment.

These minimally-invasive catheterized blood vessel procedures can treat complex conditions without open brain surgery. When performing a thrombectomy, a skilled neurointerventionalist or cerebrovascular neurosurgeon guides a tiny catheter through a blood vessel in the patient’s leg to the blood clot in the brain. The goal is to remove the clot and restore blood flow to the brain to help prevent disability.

State-of-the-Art Biplane Imaging
Wellstar is a leader in stroke care and delivers advanced technology for complex cases, such as state-of-the-art neurointerventional biplane angiography suites. Available at Wellstar Kennestone Regional Medical Center and Wellstar North Fulton Medical Center, this specialized imaging produces detailed 3D views of blood vessels deep within the brain. Biplane imaging helps our specialists diagnose people accurately and perform complex procedures like thrombectomies and brain aneurysm repair.
Imaging & Artificial Intelligence
Wellstar uses artificial intelligence (AI) to identify strokes and aneurysms, so patients get care fast at all of our hospitals. When someone has a CT scan, our AI reviews the images for signs of strokes and aneurysms. Our neurologists and neurosurgeons are alerted instantly through a smartphone app allowing them to intervene quickly and coordinate vital care for improved patient outcomes. 
Cerebrovascular & Neurocritical Care
Our experienced team of cerebrovascular and endovascular physicians have the expertise and experience to treat people with complex neurological conditions. Staffed by a multidisciplinary team of neurocritical care physicians, advanced practice providers and critical care registered nurses, Neuro Intensive Care Units at Wellstar Kennestone Regional Medical Center and Wellstar North Fulton Medical Center provide the highest level of cerebrovascular and neurocritical care. 

Learn more about cerebrovascular and neurocritical care at Wellstar.
 
Neurological Rehabilitation
After experiencing a stroke or aneurysm, our team provides educational support and secondary treatment to prevent a future stroke, along with physical and occupational therapies. Every patient has a comprehensive care plan unique to them.

Wellstar’s rehabilitation facilities include two CARF-accredited inpatient rehabilitation programs. At select locations, Wellstar offers highly specialized neuro rehab services such as robotics, therapeutic gardens and music therapy. To care for our patients’ emotional well-being, we also offer stroke support groups and caregiver training programs at select locations.

AshleyCare

September hasn't always been Ashley Irwin’s favorite month. Years ago, that time of year when the leaves changed into bright, warm colors held some of the darkest moments of her life. In 2011, a 28-year-old Ashley was battling a particularly bad bout of Crohn’s disease, an inflammatory illness that can cause painful and often debilitating abdominal and bowel issues.

Expert Stroke Care at Wellstar

CINDyCare

Cindy Mejia enjoys trying out new recipes in her kitchen at her Roswell home, or trying to keep up with her little granddaughter (who just discovered how much fun it is to run). But one Wednesday in September, Cindy woke up and reached for her computer—she felt a little groggy and couldn't remember her password but didn't immediately realize something was wrong.

Wellstar Kennestone Hospital Performs First Neurovascular Robotic Procedure

Spotting a Stroke FAST

Types of Stroke -- Not All Are the Same

For many people, the warning signs of a stroke — like numbness in the arm, confusion, loss of balance or trouble speaking and seeing — are unmistakable. But often, the underlying cause of these life-threatening medical events can be harder to uncover.
