During pediatric cerebrovascular surgeries, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Every milliliter and every minute count. Precision truly is paramount for the patient, their loved ones, and the medical team caring for them.
Cerebrovascular diseases in children unfortunately are not rare. Cerebrovascular malformations, Moyamoya disease, aneurysms, and strokes are just some of the conditions specialists in leading hospitals manage with great skill and care.
Alongside these medical superheroes are other innovators in the field. Those conducting research, advancing surgical techniques and developing technologies to ensure the best possible outcomes for these children.
One of these leaps forward is flow measurements during cerebrovascular surgeries – also known as Flow Assisted Surgical Technique (FAST). With the right tools, FAST is available for adults, children, and infants.
