Doctors at Mayo clinic in Florida have tested a new device on a small population of patients experiencing a stroke. The adhesive strip is applied over a patient’s eyebrow and measures the amount of oxygen in the brain. This is a big breakthrough, as currently, we don’t have real time data for brain blood flow other than radiologic testing or invasive measures. This can help with earlier treatment if a patient is experiencing problems or a recurrent stroke. Definitely hoping this will continue to test well and be a viable option for hospital use for all patients in the near future.
