Endovascular Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke: Considerations from Recent Randomized Trials.
BACKGROUND Despite increasing use of intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator therapy, the large number of patients ineligible for treatment or for whom treatment is ineffective has become problematic. SUMMARY The number of endovascular treatments for acute ischemic stroke is increasing each year. This treatment provides higher recanalization rates for occluded vessels but may lea...
متن کاملEndovascular Mechanical Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke: A New Standard of Care
The treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in the setting of intracranial large artery occlusion (LAO) with intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV-tPA) is associated with low rates of recanalization and high rates of neurological morbidity and functional dependence. Endovascular intervention, particularly mechanical thrombectomy, is a promising therapeutic adjunct to IV-tPA for the trea...
متن کاملTwo-year clinical follow-up of the Multicenter Randomized Clinical Trial of Endovascular Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke in The Netherlands (MR CLEAN): design and statistical analysis plan of the extended follow-up study
BACKGROUND MR CLEAN was the first randomized trial to demonstrate the short-term clinical effectiveness of endovascular treatment in patients with acute ischemic stroke caused by large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation. Several other trials confirmed that endovascular treatment improves clinical outcome at three months. However, limited data are available on long-term clinical outcom...
متن کاملCost-Utility Analysis of Mechanical Thrombectomy
Ischemic stroke is the third highest cause of death in the United Kingdom and a leading cause of disability. The overall incidence is postulated to increase over the next 5 years by the WHO. The economic burden of stroke is estimated at £9 billion per year in the United Kingdom ($38 billion in the United States) and is estimated to rise. Intravenous tissue-type plasminogen activator (IV-tPA) fo...
متن کاملChoosing a Hyperacute Stroke Imaging Protocol for Proper Patient Selection and Time Efficient Endovascular Treatment: Lessons from Recent Trials
Recently, several prospective randomized control trials regarding endovascular treatment for patients with intracranial large artery occlusions causing acute ischemic stroke have been successfully reported. Effort to minimize time delays to endovascular treatment, patient selection and the use of retrievable stent were important factors for the success of these trials. The inclusion and exclusi...
