BackgroundFor acute proximal intracranial artery occlusions, contact aspiration may be more effective than stent‐retriever for first‐line reperfusion therapy. stent‐retriever versus 55.5% stent‐retriever versus 55.5% stent‐retriever versus 55.5% versus 23.8%;P=0.10). versus 23.8%;P=0.10). versus 23.8%;P=0.10).

Primary efficacy outcome included successful recanalization (modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction [mTICI]>=2B) using 3mm Trevo NXT on either first pass or rescue pass (i.e., Primary safety outcome is rate of complications associated with the stent retriever. after initial pass failure with another device).

Background and Purpose:Although intra-arterial thrombolysis (IAT) is widely used as adjunct with mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke patients, the patients who are likely to benefit are not known. Minimum procedure time and lesser number of passes for thrombectomy are related with good neurological outcomes at 90 days.

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 primary efficacy outcome was the shift in the degree of disability, as measured by the modified Rankin Scale (mRS), at 90 days.

The primary outcome was the first‐pass effect (FPE), defined as expanded Treatment in Cerebral Infarction (TICI) 2c/3 on the first pass. Intravenous thrombolysis was administered in 39.6%. FPE was associated with higher rates of favorable outcomes (modified Rankin scale score 0–2: 58% versus 43.4%;P=0.01; 0.95];P=0.04).

Previous studies in LVO and MeVO have demonstrated a correlation between good clinical outcomes and the first pass effect (FPE, eTICI 2c/3 on the first pass) but no differences in FPE rates or clinical outcomes between first‐line endovascular therapy techniques.1‐6 Intravenous thrombolysis was administered in 39.6%. of patients.

IntroductionThe risk of tandem occlusion treatment in the setting of intravenous thrombolysis is unclear. Patients who received thrombolysis and subsequently underwent endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke between 2012 and 2022 were included. Baseline demographics and clinical characteristics were compared.

Decision to undergo MT was made secondary to severity of debilitating neurologic symptoms, age, and large perfusion deficit observed.

The stent–aspiration (Solumbra) technique uses a large bore aspiration catheter with a stent retriever device for potential synergistic effects. The technique involves deploying a stent retriever through microcatheter and large bore aspiration catheter like ACE 68 (Penumbra, Inc.), years, mean NIHSS 9.1).
