Impact of Time to Catheter-Based Therapy on Outcomes in Acute Pulmonary Embolism

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions

BACKGROUND:The aim of this study was to examine the impact of early versus delayed catheter-based therapies (CBTs) on clinical outcomes in patients with acute intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism (PE).METHODS:This years; 44% women; 29% catheter-directed thrombolysis; 68% mechanical thrombectomy; and 3% both).

Abstract TP195: Impact of Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease on Thrombectomy Outcomes in Acute Cerebral Infarction With Large Vessel Occlusion

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP195-ATP195, February 1, 2024. Previous studies have noted that ICAD-related LVOs, compared to embolic occlusions, have longer procedural times and lower successful reperfusion rates. Successful recanalization was defined as Thrombolysis in Cerebral Ischemia score ≥2b.

Abstract TP187: Comparison of Balloon Guide Catheter versus Non-Balloon Guide Catheter for Mechanical Thrombectomy in Distal Medium Vessel Occlusion

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP187-ATP187, February 1, 2024. First pass effect (FPE) was defined as a modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (mTICI) score ≥ 2C after the first pass.Results:A total of 1,508 patients were included, of whom 231 (15.3%) were in the BGC group and 1,277 (84.7%) were in the Non-BGC group.

Abstract WP199: Outcomes Following Posterior Cerebral Artery Thrombolysis vs Medical Management in those with Atrial Fibrillation

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP199-AWP199, February 1, 2024. Background:The benefits of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for posterior cerebral artery (PCA) occlusion remain controversial, but intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) has proven benefit across nearly all ischemic stroke types.

Abstract 97: Acute Ischemic Stroke Despite Anticoagulant Use: The Neuro-AFib Study

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A97-A97, February 1, 2024. Chronic embolic (non-lacunar) infarcts on imaging were more common among AIS-despite-AC (34.5% The pattern of the acute infarcts (numbers, embolic features) was not different. Intravenous thrombolysis was used much less commonly for AIS-despite-AC (10.5%

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP288-AWP288, February 1, 2024. Rates of Thrombolysis were alarming, but with an increasing tendency: 22969 were performed, from 1.6% 8290 aneurysms embolizations were performed (13.5% were Male and 47.6% were Female. in 2017 to 2.3% in 2022 of all ischemic strokes. of all SAH cases).

Women and Black Patients Less Likely to Receive Catheter-based Treatment for Pulmonary Embolism According to REAL-PE Analysis Presented at SCAI 2024

DAIC

Women and black patients were less frequently treated with minimally invasive therapy compared to men or non-Black patients, according to new data from the REAL-PE analysis which investigated catheter-based pulmonary embolism (PE) treatment. Its SCAI Scientific Sessions 2024 were held May 2-4 in Long Beach, CA.
