Intravenous Thrombolysis Before Endovascular Treatment in Posterior Circulation Occlusions: A MR CLEAN Registry Study

Stroke Journal

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.

Abstract 225: Rescue Stenting for Posterior Circulation Strokes

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

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.

Abstract WP192: Impact of Second Line Thrombectomy Technique Following Failed First Pass Thrombectomy for Anterior Circulation Stroke: To Switch or Not to Switch?

Stroke Journal

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.

Abstract WP205: Development and Validation of a Prediction Model for Outcome in Mechanical Thrombectomy for Large-Vessel Occlusion Anterior Circulation Stroke With Low ASPECTS

Stroke Journal

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.

Right precordial ST depression in a patient with chest pain

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

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?
