Endovascular Management of Stroke Patients with Large Vessel Occlusion and Minor Stroke Symptoms
Endovascular mechanical thrombectomy for stroke patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) in the anterior circulation has become the standard of care based on several major randomized clinical trials. The successful result reported by these trials constitutes what may be the largest achievement in the history of neurological sciences. However, most of these mechanical thrombectomy trials (exce...
متن کاملOccurrence of intracranial large vessel occlusion in consecutive, non-referred patients with acute ischemic stroke
Background: The relative frequency of acute intracranial large vessel occlusion (LVO) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) who could be candidate for intra-arterial treatment (IAT) is not well known. In this study, we determined clinical variables associated with LVO and the proportion of patients with LVO among patients presenting with AIS within 6 h of symptom onset. Methods: Data of ...
متن کاملClinical Selection Strategies to Identify Ischemic Stroke Patients With Large Anterior Vessel Occlusion
T he beneficial effects of endovascular treatment (EVT) in addition to intravenous thrombolysis have been proven in patients with acute ischemic stroke caused by large anterior vessel occlusion (LAVO). rapid recognition of potentially eligible patients for such treatment is critical, both in the prehos-pital and in the early in-hospital triage stage. Because EVT and complex diagnostic imaging r...
متن کاملAortic stiffness predicts functional outcome in patients after ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Increased aortic stiffness (measured by carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity) and central augmentation index have been shown to independently predict cardiovascular events, including stroke. We studied whether pulse wave velocity and central augmentation index predict functional outcome after ischemic stroke. METHODS In a prospective study, we enrolled 99 patients with a...
متن کاملFrequency and outcome of total anterior circulation strokes without intracranial large-vessel occlusion.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The percentage of patients with clinical total anterior circulation infarct (TACI) syndrome treated with reperfusion therapies in the absence of intracranial large-vessel occlusion (ILVO) was determined and their characteristics and outcome are described. METHODS Data from a population-based, prospective, externally audited registry of all stroke patients treated with i...
