    Abstract: Introduction: High blood pressure variability (BPV) after endovascular thrombectomy is associated with post-stroke complications and poor neurological outcomes. However, whether BPV is an epiphenomenon of the stroke itself or causally related to the outcome remains unknown. Objective: In this study we aimed to evaluate if a relationship exists between pre-and post-stroke BPV in patients with large vessel occlusions (LVO). Methods: From our prospective stroke registry, we identified patients who had an anterior circulation LVO, underwent EVT, and had at least three blood pressure measurements recorded in the electronic medical record in the six months prior to their stroke admission. All patients had repeated time-stamped blood pressure data recorded for the first 72 hours after thrombectomy. Using the standard deviation of systolic BP, we calculated BPV for each patient and separated patients into tertiles based on their post-EVT BPV. The relationship between pre-stroke BPV and post-EVT BPV was analyzed using an ordinal logistic regression and Spearman’s rank correlation analysis. Results: Two hundred fifty-two patients were included in our analysis (mean age 70±16.2 years, mean admission NIHSS 15±7, median pre-stroke BP measurements 14.5 (IQR 5.0-55.8)). Pre-stroke BPV gradually increased for patients with higher post-EVT BPV tertiles (tertile 1 = 13.2(±5.2) mmHg, tertile 2 = 15.0(±5.5) mmHg, tertile 3 = 16.7(±7.0) mmHg, p=0.001). A positive correlation was observed between pre-stroke BPV and post-EVT BPV (p 〈 0.001, R=0.21). After adjusting for age and admission NIHSS, pre-stroke BPV was significantly associated with post-EVT BPV tertile membership (OR 1.37, 95% CI 1.02-1.86, p=0.039). Conclusion: High pre-stroke BPV is correlated with high post-EVT BPV. Although larger, prospective studies are needed to provide definitive evidence of this relationship, our work suggests that high post-EVT BPV may be related to an underlying biological phenomenon and not merely a consequence of the stroke itself. Individuals with high BPV may benefit from more intensive blood pressure management in the acute phase after EVT.

    Abstract: Introduction: The precise interactions between collateral perfusion, hemodynamics, and infarct growth after large vessel occlusion (LVO) require further definition. This study examined whether patients with poor collateral circulation and rapid early infarct progression are more vulnerable to reductions in blood pressure (BP). Methods: We prospectively enrolled patients with LVO stroke who underwent thrombectomy. Volumes of arterial tissue delay and relative cerebral blood flow (CBF) were estimated with RAPID software; a poor collateral profile was defined by a hypoperfusion intensity ratio 〉 0.4. Early infarct growth rate (EIGR) was defined as ischemic core volume (CBF 〈 30%) divided by the time from symptom onset to imaging. A fast progressor profile was assigned to patients whose EIGR was 〉 10 mL/h. The final infarct growth rate (FIGR) was the quotient of final infarct volume (FIV) and time from symptom onset to reperfusion. BP reduction was measured as the difference between admission mean arterial pressure (MAP) and lowest MAP before reperfusion. Results: Fifty-five patients (mean age 69 + 15, mean NIHSS 13) with successful reperfusion (TICI 2B/3) were included in the analysis. The median MAP reduction was 17 (IQR 9, 32). Poor collateral perfusion and EIGR were independent predictors of FIV after adjusting for age and admission NIHSS (mean FIV 70 vs. 31 mL, p=0.012 and 60 vs. 29 mL, p=0.01, respectively). A significant interaction was found between MAP reduction and both collateral status (p=0.04) and progressor profile (p=0.01). For every 10 mmHg MAP reduction, patients with poor collaterals experienced an average increase in FIGR of 3.6 mL/h (Fig. 1A). Above a critical MAP reduction threshold of 30 mmHg, mean FIV was significantly larger in patients with rapidly progressing infarcts (p 〈 0.01, Fig. 1B). Conclusions: Patients with poor collaterals and rapid early infarct growth are at higher risk of accelerated infarct growth and larger FIV related to BP reductions.

    Abstract: Background: Optimal level blood pressure (BP) targets in acute stroke remain elusive. Tailored hemodynamic management after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) may reduce the risk of reperfusion injury and promote penumbral recovery. Our study aimed to evaluate the relationship between personalized autoregulation-based BP targets, secondary brain injury, and functional outcomes. Methods: We prospectively enrolled 200 patients with acute ischemic stroke who underwent EVT. Autoregulatory function was continuously measured for 〉 =24 hours using simultaneous recordings of near-infrared spectroscopy and mean arterial pressure (MAP). The resulting autoregulatory index was used to calculate and trend the BP range at which autoregulation was most preserved. Percent time and “dose” that MAP exceeded the upper limit or dropped below the lower limit of autoregulation (ULA, LLA) were calculated for each patient. Hemodynamic parameters were correlated with short-term clinical endpoints (symptomatic ICH), biomarkers of secondary brain injury (net water uptake, hemorrhagic transformation (HT), infarct progression), and 90-day functional outcomes. Results: Personalized BP targets were successfully computed in 195 patients (mean age 70 ± 16, 45% female, mean NIHSS 14, mean monitoring time 31 ± 28 hours). Time above the ULA was associated with worse functional outcomes at 90-days after adjusting for age, sex, NIHSS, ASPECTS and TICI (adjusted OR per 10% increase 1.4, 95% CI 1.1-1.6, P=0.004). The burden of hyperperfusion was significantly greater among patients with HT (median 2.7 vs. 3.2 mmHg*min, p=0.01) and sICH (median 2.8 vs. 4.8 mmHg*min, p=0.05) than in those without it. Furthermore, time spent above the ULA was significantly correlated with net water uptake at 72 hours (r=0.37, p=0.03). Among patients with unsuccessful reperfusion, there was a non-significant correlation between time below the LLA and infarct progression (r=0.35, p=0.064). Conclusions: In the largest study conducted to date, deviations from personalized BP targets were associated with an increased risk of secondary brain injury and worse functional outcomes. Autoregulation-oriented BP management represents a promising strategy for maximizing recovery after ischemic stroke.

    Abstract: Background: Impairment of cerebral autoregulation after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) makes patients vulnerable to changes in blood pressure (BP). While oral nimodipine is recommended for improving neurological outcomes, its administration is frequently associated with reductions in BP. In this observational study, we examined the effect of nimodipine-induced BP reductions below personalized limits of autoregulation on outcome after aneurysmal SAH. Methods: Autoregulatory function was continuously measured by interrogating changes in near-infrared spectroscopy-derived tissue oxygenation (a cerebral blood flow surrogate) in response to changes in mean arterial pressure (MAP). The resulting autoregulatory index was used for trending the BP range at which autoregulation was most preserved. Cerebral hypoperfusion was defined as episodes with at least 30 minutes of MAP reductions below the lower limit of autoregulation (LLA) following nimodipine administration (Fig. 1). Functional outcome was measured with the modified Rankin Scale at 90 days. Results: We identified 593 occurrences of nimodipine administration with simultaneous recording of continuous physiologic data for 60 minutes before and after the intervention among 26 SAH patients (mean age 57 + 14, 21 F). Following nimodipine administration, the mean MAP decreased from 103 to 98 mmHg (p 〈 0.001), and the time with MAP below the LLA increased from 9.5 to 21.7% (p 〈 0.001). Moreover, the proportion of episodes with cerebral hypoperfusion was associated with worse 90-day outcomes after adjusting for age and SAH severity (OR for 10% increase 1.5, 95% CI 1.2-2.2, P=0.038). Conclusions: Nimodipine-induced BP reductions below the LLA may increase the risk of secondary brain injury and poor functional outcomes. A more personalized treatment approach accounting for cerebral autoregulation status could help identify vulnerable patients and maximize the benefit from current clinical interventions.

    Abstract: Background: Cerebral near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a useful tool to monitor real-time cerebral oxygenation levels. However, the mechanisms through which varying oxygenation levels during endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) affect functional outcomes remain to be determined. In this study, we categorized NIRS trends into descriptive “fingerprints” and examined the relationship between these fingerprints and neurological worsening. Methods: We enrolled patients that presented to Yale New Haven Hospital with large vessel occlusion acute ischemic stroke and underwent EVT. NIRS was implemented into the standard operating procedure. Time stamps of defined events (medication administration, recanalization, etc.) were synchronized with corresponding NIRS values. We inspected NIRS curves from arrival to angio-suite to time of recanalization. Neurological deterioration was defined as an increase of 4 points or more on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). Results: Forty-eight patients (mean age 72 ± 13, mean NIHSS 14) were analyzed. Five “fingerprints” were observed in the affected hemisphere: sustained decreases, downward rSO2 peaks, no change, upward rSO2 peaks, and sustained increases (Fig. 1), which were assigned nominal values of -2, -1, 0, 1, and 2, respectively. After adjusting for age and admission NIHSS, sustained decreases and downward rSO2 peaks were independently associated with neurological deterioration (P = 0.0076, Fig. 2). Conclusions: Identifiable NIRS “fingerprints” of downward rSO2 peaks and sustained decreases in the affected hemisphere during EVT are associated with neurological deterioration. Further distillation of identifiable intraprocedural NIRS trends in real time could provide guidance for anesthesia and hemodynamic management during EVT to optimize patient outcomes after stroke.
