radar contact lost

QUESTION TO RADAR ATCs: WHEN YOU ARE CONTROLLING NUMEROUS
IFR ACFT. INBOUND WITH APPROACH CONTROL AND YOU LOSE RADAR CONTACT WITH ONE OF THESE ACFT (BLIND AREA NO PRIMARY NOR SECONDARY RETURN) HOW DO YOU TREAT THIS ACFT/SITUATION?

[Blockla]

You provide a procedural service. (i.e. a non radar service) Is that what you mean?

Thank you blockla.
That's the idea...so you continue handling this traffic using "conventional"
approach procedures? vertical separation, position reports, next fix estimate, etc? tricky to maintain IFR separation and sequence with other
traffic, isn't it?
