BACKGROUND:The effectiveness of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) before endovascular treatment (EVT) has been investigated in randomized trials and meta-analyses. These studies mainly concerned anterior circulation occlusions. All patients with a posterior circulation occlusion were included.
IntroductionIntracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) is associated with up to 32% of posterior circulation strokes.1 Rescue treatment with stenting, balloon angioplasty, and/or intraarterial thrombolysis or antiplatelets are often required to treat the underlying stenosis.
The primary outcome measure was successful recanalization defined as modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Ischemia (mTICI) score of 2b or higher. Data from 29 stroke centers for 10,229 AIS patients treated with MT for LVO between January 2010 and December 2022 was investigated.
The bootstrap resampling method was considered internal validation of the model.Results:Age (< 70 years), premorbid status (mRS 0), National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) (< 20), and recanalization status after the MT (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Ischemia [mTICU] ≥2b) were related to 90-day mRS 0-3.
For those who depend on echocardiogram to confirm the ECG findings of ischemia, this should be sobering. All of Wellens' cases in his studies (1, 2) had all of: 1) preserved R-waves 2) resolution of pain 3) restored flow to the anterior wall through either a) an open artery or b) collateral circulation. Lessons: 1. Lessons: 1.
Circulation, Volume 148, Issue 24 , Page 1919-1928, December 12, 2023. The primary efficacy outcome was a composite of acute limb ischemia, major amputation of a vascular pathogenesis, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, or cardiovascular death. mg of rivaroxaban BID or matching placebo and 100 mg of aspirin daily.
Here, we investigate the association of middle cerebral artery(MCA) tortuosity on radiographic and functional outcome.Methods:The Analysis of Revascularization in Ischemic Stroke with EmboTrap II was utilized to identify patients with anterior circulation stroke.
Computer read: "Non-specific ST abnormality, consider anterior subendocardial ischemia" There are very poor R-waves in V1-V4 suggesting old anterior MI. Firstly, subendocardial ischemia does not localize on 12-Lead ECG. But the real question at hand is: Are these precordial ST-depressions a result of subendocardial ischemia?
More likely, the patient had crescendo angina, with REVERSIBLE ischemia for 48 hours that only became potentially irreversible (STEMI) at that point in time. During the 48 hours of angina, such reversible ischemia often leads to myocardial stunning with akinesis of the myocardial wall that puts it at risk for thrombus.
Outcomes included complications, NIHSS at discharge, final modified TICI (thrombolysis in cerebral ischemia) scores including the first‐pass effect (FPE, defined as mTICI 2c/3 after first pass), modified‐FPE (defined as, mTICI 2b‐3 after first pass), symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (SITS‐MOST definition), and death at discharge.
