Physician panelists and topics will vary with each webinar, but the overall subject will focus on the benefits of utilizing IRRAflow’s active fluid exchange to quickly and efficiently clear blood from the intraventricular space.

In addition, each physician panelist will discuss their experience incorporating IRRAflow into their clinical practice and share their recently published IRRAflow case reviews and ongoing clinical studies.
“We are excited to partner with the Jacobs Institute, Dr. Siddiqui, and the University of Buffalo Department of Neurosurgery to bring together leading experts to discuss the evolution in treatment for intracranial bleeding,” said Will Martin, President and CEO of IRRAS. “Dr. Siddiqui and his peers in Buffalo are world-renowned for their contribution to advancing innovation in the treatment of stroke, and we feel that this webinar series will create an ideal learning environment where experts share advice with their peers regarding cutting-edge technology, and lessons learned during clinical practice.”
