Today is World Brain Day, so we’re highlighting this year’s theme ‘Brain health and prevention’ by sharing some information from the World Federation of Neurology to help promote understanding of brain health. - Neurological disorders are the number one cause of disability-adjusted life years. - Neurological disability can be long-term physical, mental, cognitive or sensory impairments that may restrict a person from fully participating in society. - Neurological disorders such as stroke, migraine, dementia, meningitis and epilepsy are the number one cause of disability-adjusted life years. - People with disabilities are twice as likely to develop chronic conditions which can further negatively impact brain health such as depression, diabetes, obesity or stroke. Prioritise your brain health today and speak with your GP if you have experienced any neurological difficulties.

Gore Launches GORE TBE Endo-Thoracic Graft at Galway Clinic, Blackrock Health Group in Ireland Professor Sherif Sultan and his strong vascular team are proud to announce the successful launch of the GORE TBE Endo-Thoracic Graft at Galway Clinic, part of the Blackrock Health Group. The first-of-its-kind procedure using this FDA-approved device was performed by the esteemed Master of Endovascular Surgery, Professor Sherif Sultan, alongside his highly skilled vascular team. The GORE TBE Endo-Thoracic Graft is specifically designed for simplified, minimally invasive Zone 2 Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR) procedures. This innovative device aims to maximize clinical outcomes while minimizing the potential risks and complexities associated with open debranching or revascularization surgeries. Professor Sherif Sultan commented on the groundbreaking procedure, stating, "The GORE TBE device has demonstrated exceptional safety and efficacy, particularly in patients requiring TEVAR without an adequate landing zone. This device offers an ideal solution for lesions in Zone 2, ensuring continued antegrade perfusion of the left subclavian artery (LSA) without necessitating endograft modifications, parallel stenting techniques, or additional open revascularization." One of the significant advantages of the GORE TBE Endo-Thoracic Graft is its user-friendly design, which does not require a learning curve. "Our experience in elective settings allowed us to develop immediate comfort with the device, thereby improving our success rates in more urgent settings," added Professor Sultan. This landmark procedure at Galway Clinic underscores the clinic's commitment to leveraging advanced medical technologies to enhance patient care. The introduction of the GORE TBE Endo-Thoracic Graft represents a significant advancement in the treatment of complex aortic conditions, providing a new and effective option for patients in need of Zone 2 aortic repair.

July marks Sarcoma Awareness Month. In Ireland, 270 people are diagnosed with a type of the rare cancerous tumours each year. At Blackrock Health, we recognise the importance of early and correct diagnosis. Sarcoma is a rare and often misunderstood form of cancer that originates in the connective tissues, such as muscles, bones, nerves, and blood vessels. It encompasses a diverse range of subtypes, making it a challenging disease to diagnose and treat effectively. Early detection plays a vital role in improving outcomes, making education and awareness paramount.
