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 WP179: Clinical Outcomes in Acute Stroke in Patients Undergoing Emergency Intracranial Stenting Receiving IV Thrombolysis

Stroke Journal

In cases of stent-retriever thrombectomy failure, rescue stent angioplasty might be the sole option for achieving permanent recanalization. Among patients who underwent emergency intracranial stenting, 66 (30.6%) received intravenous thrombolytic treatment. 10.43, p=0.0325).Conclusions:The 10.43, p=0.0325).Conclusions:The

Abstract 123: First Off?Label Use of the XIENCE Skypoint Stent for Mechanical Thrombectomy Rescue

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

IntroductionDespite technical advances in mechanical thrombectomy (MT), failure to achieve recanalization in the posterior circulation remains a significant challenge. Rescue strategies to increase MT success in the posterior circulation have been explored. Admission National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) 20.

Abstract WP253: A Multicenter, Prospective, Randomized Controlled Trial of Endovascular Treatment with or without Intravenous ThromBolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke of Basilar Artery Occlusion (BEST-BAO): Study Protocol

Stroke Journal

Background and Aims:Endovascular treatment (EVT) alone has been confirmed to be non-inferior to intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) followed with EVT in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to large-vessel occlusion of the anterior circulation.

Abstract 231: Rescue Stenting for Failed Mechanical Thrombectomy in Acute Ischemic Stroke:An Analysis of the SVIN Registry

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

Rescue strategies options, including balloon angioplasty alone, rescue stenting (RS) alone, or stent with balloon angioplasty, have shown promise in observational studies and meta‐analyses [3, 4]. The patients were divided into two groups: those who received RS and those who only received MM.

First ED ECG is Wellens' (pain free). What do you think the prehospital ECG showed (with pain)?

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

A stent was placed. 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.
