Endovascular Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke in Indonesia: Challenging and Strategic Planning.
High rates of morbidity and mortality indicate that stroke is a major health concern. Unfortunately, the management of ischemic stroke is hindered by several obstacles, particularly in developing countries such as Indonesia, where the burden of morbidity and mortality remains high. In this literature review, we intend to conduct a thorough investigation and analysis of the obstacles to stroke thrombectomy in developing countries, with a focus on Indonesia. Even though numerous studies and recent advances in thrombectomy techniques have been developed, many centers around the world continue to struggle to implement them. The majority of these institutions are located in developing nations like Indonesia. It faces numerous obstacles, including a lack of public awareness, infrastructure, human resources, and financial difficulties. The absence of early education and large-scale campaigns contributes to the dearth of public awareness. Inadequate imaging facilities, prehospital and referral systems, as well as disparities in healthcare expenditure and accessibility, contribute to the absence of infrastructure. Inadequate numbers of neurointerventionists, neurologists, and neurosurgeons, as well as a disparate distribution of these professionals, contribute to human resource issues. Inadequate national insurance coverage, high import tariffs on medical devices, and the high cost of healthcare have a negative impact on the financial situation. We provide related strategies regarding the current situation in Indonesia based on the recent evidence and comparison with developed countries. Academic institutions, medical associations, and government agencies must collaborate to overcome these challenges.
