    Abstract: Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in ischemic stroke patients with poor prestroke conditions remains controversial. We aimed to analyze the frequency of previously disabled patients treated with MT in clinical practice, the safety and clinical response to MT of patients with preexisting disability, and the disabled patient characteristics associated with a better response to MT. Methods: We studied all consecutive patients with anterior circulation occlusion treated with MT from January 2017 to December 2019 included in the Codi Ictus Catalunya registry—a government-mandated, prospective, hospital-based data set. Prestroke disability was defined as modified Rankin Scale score 2 or 3. Functional outcome at 90 days was centrally assessed by a blinded evaluator of the Catalan Stroke Program. Favorable outcome (to return at least to prestroke modified Rankin Scale at 90 days) and safety and secondary outcomes were compared with patients without previous disability. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the association between prestroke disability and outcomes and to identify a disabled patient profile with favorable outcome after MT. Results: Of 2487 patients included in the study, 409 (17.1%) had prestroke disability (313 modified Rankin Scale score 2 and 96 modified Rankin Scale score 3). After adjustment for covariates, prestroke disability was not associated with a lower chance of achieving favorable outcome at 90 days (24% versus 30%; odds ratio, 0.79 [0.57–1.08]), whereas it was independently associated with a higher risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (5% versus 3%; odds ratio, 2.04 [1.11–3.72] ) and long-term mortality (31% versus 18%; odds ratio, 1.74 [1.27–2.39]) compared with patients without disability. Prestroke disabled patients without diabetes, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score 〉 8 and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score 〈 17 showed similar safety and outcome results after MT as patients without prestroke disability. Conclusions: Despite a higher mortality and risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, prestroke-disabled patients return as often as independent patients to their prestroke level of function, especially those nondiabetic patients with favorable early ischemic signs profile. These data support a potential benefit of MT in patients with previous mild or moderate disability after large anterior vessel occlusion stroke.

    Abstract TMP88: Blood Pressure Variability Within 24 Hours After Recanalization Worsens Functional Outcome Among Patients Who Underwent Endovascular Treatment
    Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) ; 2020

    Abstract: Introduction: Systemic blood pressure (BP) should be strictly monitored and adjusted during the initial stages of stroke. Due to the impairment of cerebral autoregulation, cerebral blood flow is directly affected by systemic BP and some degree of permissive hypertension might be beneficial prior to reperfusion treatments to ensure an adequate perfusion in the ischemic tissue. However, after generalization of endovascular treatment (EVT) the rate of successful recanalization has skyrocketed and it is not well established if, once achieved, BP control should be stricter given its potential risks. We aim to explore the relation between BP and outcome among patients who underwent EVT. Methods: This is a retrospective study of a prospectively acquired unicentric database that includes patients who underwent EVT with successful recanalization measured by a mTICI ≥2b. Hourly measuring of systolic and diastolic BP was conducted during the first 24 hours post-procedure. BP variation was measured using standard deviation (SD) and range. We explored the effects of BP on functional outcome at 3 months and safety variables. Results: The study included 351 subjects with a mean age of 72.7+/-13.1 and 51.6% were men. The 3-months mRS was ≤2 in 50.4% of patients, 66 subjects (19.2%) presented hemorrhagic transformation and 67 (19.1%) were dead in the 3-months follow-up period. Both systolic BP SD (15.6+/-9.9 vs. 12.9+/-4.3; p 〈 0.01) and range (55.6+/-18.4 vs. 48.7+/-16.4; p 〈 0.01) were higher among patients with bad functional outcome (mRS 〉 2). Subjects with hemorrhagic transformation presented higher range of DBP (35.7+/-12.4 vs. 32.0+/-11.9; p=0.03) and SBP (56.8+/-17.0 vs. 51.4+/-18.1; p=0.03) and higher diastolic DBP SD (9.3+/-4.1 vs. 8.2+/-2.7; p 〈 0.01). In a logistic regression analysis DBP SD predicted ICH (OR 1.11, CI 1.02-1.22, p=0.01) and SBP range emerged as a predictor of poor functional outcome (OR 0.97, CI 0.96-0.99, p 〈 0.01). No differences were detected in regard to admission BP, maximal and minimal BP or mean arterial pressure. Conclusions: Major fluctuations in systolic and diastolic BP predict increased risk of hemorrhagic complications and poor functional outcome. Minimizing BP fluctuations may improve outcome of EVT patients after recanalization.

    Abstract: Background: Several noncontrast computed tomography (NCCT), single-phase computed tomography angiography (CTA), and multiphase CTA markers of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) expansion have been previously proposed. We derived and validated three scores for the prediction of hematoma expansion depending on the use of NCCT, single-phase CTA, or multiphase CTA markers of hematoma expansion. Methods: We prospective studied 276 consecutive patients with ICH within 6 hours from symptom onset. After deriving NCCT, single-phase CTA, and multiphase CTA scores in a 5-year period population (n=156), we validated them in a different 3-year period population (n=120). Outcome parameters included substantial hematoma expansion 〉 6 mL or 〉 33% at 24 hours (primary outcome) and poor outcome (mRS score 〉 2) at 90 days. Results: The most accurate marker of hematoma expansion was spot sign in phase 1 of multiphase CTA (80.3%). The four independent predictors of substantial hematoma expansion included in the different scores were ultraearly hematoma growth (uHG) 〉 5 mL/h, heterogeneous density, spot sign in phase 1 of multiphase CTA, and spot sign in any phase of multiphase CTA (Table). On each of the three scores, the proportion of patients that experienced substantial hematoma expansion increased with each point increase. C-index for both substantial hematoma expansion and poor outcome in the derivation and validation cohort was lower in NCCT expansion score than in single-phase CTA expansion score which, in turn, was lower than in multiphase CTA expansion score (Table). Conclusions: This study demonstrates the added prognostic value of more advanced CT modalities in acute ICH evaluation. Single-phase CTA score and, especially, multiphase CTA score, are more robust than NCCT score in the prediction of hematoma expansion and poor outcome. These scores may help to refine the selection of patients at risk of expansion and poorest outcomes in different decision-making scenarios.

    Abstract TP63: Hypoperfusion Volume Immediately After Endovascular Reperfusion Therapies: A Highly Accurate Early Predictor of Clinical Outcome After Recanalization

    Abstract: Despite successful recanalization after endovascular treatment (EVT), a proportion of patients will not experience favorable outcome. We hypothesize that an early computed tomography perfusion (CTP-AFT) immediately after EVT may improve clinical outcome prediction. Methods: Consecutive patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) who achieved partial (TICI 2a) or complete (TICI 2b/3) recanalization after EVT underwent CTP-AFT within 30 minutes. Different CTP parameters were measured with the Rapid software. Clinical data were recorded including dramatic recovery (DR: ≥8 points decrease from baseline NIHSS or NIHSS 0-2 at 24 hours) Results: Forty-six LVO were included, median baseline NIHSS was 18 (P25-75 13-22). Final recanalization grades were: TICI 2a, 5 patients (10.8%); TICI 2b, 19 (41.6%); and TICI 3, 22 (47.8%). Median 24h infarct volume was 7.5 cc (0-19). Median NIHSS decrease after 24h was 8 (1-16). Twenty-seven (58%) patients experienced DR. The volume with Tmax 〉 6 seconds was the only CTP parameter that correlated with degree of recanalization: TICI 2a: 102cc (60-138); TICI 2b: 15cc (0-37); and TICI 3: 0cc (0-5), p 〈 0.005. Lower Tmax 〉 6s volume was associated with lower 24h-infarct volume (p 〈 0.01), lower 24h NIHSS (p 〈 0.01) and higher probability of DR (p 〈 0.01). A ROC curve identified a Tmax 〉 6s volume 〈 5.5cc as the best cut-off point to predict DR (sens 73.7%, specif 70.4%, AUC 0.74). A logistic regression analysis adjusted by age, baseline NIHSS, ASPECTS, occlusion location and time and degree of recanalization showed that the only predictor of DR was a Tmax 〉 6s volume 〈 5.5cc (OR 21.6, CI 2.7-173.2, p 〈 0.01). Conclusion: CTP maps performed immediately after EVT correlated with degree of recanalization. However, a low Tmax 〉 6s volume predicted clinical outcome better than post-procedural TICI scores.

    Abstract: Despite recanalization, almost 50% of patients undergoing endovascular treatment (EVT) experience poor outcome. We aim to evaluate the value of computed tomography perfusion as immediate outcome predictor postendovascular treatment. Methods— Consecutive patients receiving endovascular treatment who achieved recanalization (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Ischemia [mTICI] 2a-3) underwent computed tomography perfusion within 30 minutes from recanalization (CTPpost). Hypoperfusion was defined as the Tmax 〉 6 second volume; hyperperfusion as visually increased cerebral blood flow/cerebral blood volume with reduced Tmax compared with unaffected hemisphere. Dramatic clinical recovery (DCR) was defined as 24-hour National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score ≤2 or ≥8 points drop. Delayed recovery was defined as no-DCR with favorable outcome (modified Rankin Scale score 0–2) at 3 months. Results— We included 151 patients: median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score 16 (interquartile range, 10–21), median admission ASPECTS 9 (interquartile range, 8–10). Final recanalization was the following: mTICI2a 11 (7.3%), mTICI2b 46 (30.5%), and mTICI3 94 (62.3%). On CTPpost, 80 (52.9%) patients showed hypoperfusion (median Tmax 〉 6 seconds: 4 cc [0–25]) and 32 (21.2%) hyperperfusion. There was an association between final TICI and CTPpost hypoperfusion(median Tmax 〉 6: 91 [56–117], 15 [0–37.5] , and 0 [0–7] cc, for mTICI 2a, 2b, and 3, respectively, P 〈 0.01). Smaller hypoperfusion volumes on CTPpost were observed in patients with DCR (0 cc [0–13] versus non-DCR 8 cc [0–56] ; P 〈 0.01) or favorable outcome (modified Rankin Scale score 0–2: 0 cc [0–13] versus 7 [0–56] cc; P 〈 0.01). No associations were detected with hyperperfusion pattern. An hypoperfusion volume 〈 3.5 cc emerged as independent predictor of DCR (OR, 4.1 [95% CI, 2.0–8.3]; P 〈 0.01) and 3 months favorable outcome (OR, 3.5 [95% CI, 1.6–7.8]; P 〈 0.01). Conclusions— Hypoperfusion on CTPpost constitutes an immediate accurate surrogate marker of success after endovascular treatment and identifies those patients with delayed recovery and favorable outcome.

    Abstract: Introduction: Mechanical thrombectomy is the best treatment for large vessel occlusion in acute strokes, this technique can obtain clots for further analysis. Objective: To evaluate flow cytometry in thrombi obtained in the treatment of hyperacute stroke by mechanical thrombectomy, as a diagnostic tool in the etiological study of stroke Methods: Consecutively, intracranial clots were obtained in the hyperacute phase of stroke with solitaire device. Cell suspensions of thrombi were prepared that were labeled by direct immunofluorescence using conjugated monoclonal antibodies. The labeled samples were acquired in a Naviostm flow cytometer (Beckman-Coulter). The following leukocyte populations were studied: granulocytes, monocytes, total lymphocytes, T lymphocytes (CD3 +), helper T lymphocytes (CD3 +, CD4 +), suppressor-cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CD3 +, CD8 +), TNK lymphocytes (CD3 +, CD56 / 16 +) , NK lymphocytes (CD3-, CD56 / 16 +) and B lymphocytes (CD19 +). The results were expressed as percentages (%). The aetiology of stroke was categorized in secondary to: major structural heart disease, atrial fibrillation, stroke of atherosclerotic etiology (severe stenosis or complicated aortic atheromatosis ulceration) or infrequent causes. Results: 40 samples were analyzed. Clots of atherosclerotic etiology (n = 13) were associated with higher% of CD4 T lymphocytes (24.85% vs 15.83% p = 0.016), and higher% of NK (21.08% vs 17.04) % p = 0.07), also showed a tendency to a higher% LT (23.69% vs 16.46% p = 0.052). Strokes secondary to AF were associated with a higher percentage of CD8 T lymphocytes (20.24 vs 13.56 p = 0.048). Conclussion: Analysis by flow cytometry of clots obtained in the hyperacute phase of stroke showed significant differences in the different lymphocyte populations according to the etiology

    Abstract: A significant proportion of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) treated with endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) present poor functional outcome despite recanalization. We aim to investigate computed tomography perfusion (CTP) patterns after EVT and their association with outcome Methods: Prospective study of anterior large vessel occlusion AIS patients who achieved complete recanalization (defined as modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Ischemia (TICI) 2b - 3) after EVT. CTP was performed within 30 minutes post-EVT recanalization (POST-CTP): hypoperfusion was defined as volume of time to maximal arrival of contrast (Tmax) delay ≥6 seconds in the affected territory. Hyperperfusion was defined as visual increase in cerebral blood flow (CBF) and volume (CBV) with advanced Tmax compared with the unaffected hemisphere. Dramatic clinical recovery (DCR) was defined as a decrease of ≥8 points in NIHSS score at 24h or NIHSS≤2 and good functional outcome by mRS ≤2 at 3 months. Results: One-hundred and forty-one patients were included. 49 (34.7%) patients did not have any perfusion abnormality on POST-CTP, 60 (42.5%) showed hypoperfusion (median volume Tmax≥6s 17.5cc, IQR 6-45cc) and 32 (22.8%) hyperperfusion. DCR appeared in 56% of patients and good functional outcome in 55.3%. Post-EVT hypoperfusion was related with worse final TICI, and associated worse early clinical evolution, larger final infarct volume (p 〈 0.01 for all) and was an independent predictor of functional outcome (OR 0.98, CI 0.97-0.99, p=0.01). Furthermore, POST-CTP identified patients with delayed improvement: in patients without DCR (n=62, 44%), there was a significant difference in post-EVT hypoperfusion volume according to functional outcome (hypoperfusion volume of 2cc in good outcome vs 11cc in poor outcome, OR 0.97 CI 0.93-0.99, p=0.04), adjusted by confounding factors. Hyperperfusion was not associated with worse outcome (p=0.45) nor symptomatic hemorrhagic transformation (p=0.55). Conclusion: Hypoperfusion volume after EVT is an accurate predictor of functional outcome. In patients without dramatic clinical recovery, hypoperfusion predicts good functional outcome and defines a “stunned-brain” pattern. POST-CTP may help to select EVT patients for additional therapies.

    Abstract: Introduction: First pass recanalization (FPR) is known to be a strong predictor of good outcome in endovascular treatment (EVT) of stroke. The reasons why FPR leads to better outcome than if achieved in multiple-passes (MP) are unknown. We aim to investigate the recanalization pattern and its relation with good outcome. Methods: 609 consecutive patients underwent EVT in the anterior circulation at a single stroke center. Demographic and imaging characteristics, number of passes and recanalization pattern were recorded. Complete recanalization was defined as mTICI2b-3 at the end of EVT. Good functional outcome was defined as modified Rankin scale (mRs) 0-2 at 90 days. Sudden recanalization(SR) was considered when mTICI score varied from 0-1 to 2B-3 in a single pass. Progressive recanalization (PR) was considered if mTICI 2a was achieved at an interim pass before achieving complete recanalization. Patients were categorized as recanalizers at first-pass (FP) and multiple-passes (MP) or non-recanalizers (NR). 70 (10.3%) patients in MP group were excluded due to missing procedural data. Results: 509 (83.9%) patients achieved complete recanalization. SR was achieved in 378 (62.1%) patients; 280 (46%) were FP-SR and 98 (16.1%) were MP-SR. MP-PR was achieved in 131 (21.5%) patients. Rates of good functional outcome depending on recanalization pattern were: FP-SR 57.5%, MP-SR 57.1% (FP-SR vs MP-SR, OR 0.9 CI 0.53-1.54, p=0.7), MP-PR 29.8% (MP-SR vs MP-PR, OR 3.06 CI 1.66-5.62, p 〈 0.001) and NR 17% (MP-PR vs NR, OR 1.23 CI 0.49-3.09, p=0.66). In patients with complete recanalization, univariate analysis showed that both FP (OR 1.91, CI 1.34-2.72, p 〈 0.01) and SR (OR 3.18, CI 2.08-4.87, p 〈 0.01) were associated with good functional outcome. Multivariate analysis showed that SR was a predictor of good functional outcome (OR 3.12, CI 1.9-5.1, p 〈 0.01), being FPR non-significant (OR 1.12, CI 0.66-1.9, p=0.666). Conclusions: Sudden recanalization is a strong predictor of good functional outcome in patients undergoing EVT, even after previous unsuccessful attempts. Progressive recanalization may reflect clot fragmentation and embolization due to more friable composition, leading to worse outcomes. Benefits of first pass effect are driven by sudden recanalization.

    Abstract: Background: Complete recanalization is a well-known predictor of functional outcome among patients who undergo MT. However, trying to improve recanalization from successful (eTICI ≥ 2b) to complete (eTICI2c-3) with more passes is under debate. PROMS allow an accurate assessment of patients status in different domains after AIS. Hypothesis: In AIS patients undergoing MT, PROMS may allow a more precise characterization of the long-term outcome than the usual mRS according to different degrees of recanalization. Methods: Patients with anterior circulation AIS, treated with MT who achieved a successful recanalization (eTICI ≥ 2b) were included. Patients were classified in two groups according to the degree of recanalization: eTICI 2b (successful) vs eTICI 2c-3 (complete). The collected study variables were baseline, procedural characteristics, and 90 days outcome measures including: assessment of disability by a certified clinician blinded to recanalization status (mRS) and PROMS (PROMIS 10- Physical and Mental, HAD depression and Anxiety, visual EQ-5D scale) Results: From Jan 2020 to Dec 2022, 96 patients with PROMS collection at 90 days were identified: 21 had a final eTICI 2b and 75 a final eTICI2c-3. No differences in terms of age, sex and other baseline and procedural characteristic were observed between groups. Median 90-days mRS was similar in both groups (2 [IQR 1-3]; p= 0.517). At 90 days patients achieving TICI 2c-3 had significantly lower HAD depression score: 7 [3-10] vs 10 [7-15] (p=0.02). All other median PROMS values were numerically favourable for patients who achieved TICI 2c-3: visual EQ-5D scale: 64 [10-80] vs 50 [42-65] (p= 0.1), PROMIS 10-Physical and Mental (eTICI 2b: 12 [10-14] and 12 [9-15] versus eTICI 2c-3: 9[7-12] and 9 [7-12]; p=0.8 and p=0.6 respectively), except for HAD-anxiety score (eTICI 2b: 6 [3-9] versus eTICI 2c-3: 7 [4-9]), p=0.520). More than 250 patients will complete the 90 days follow-up in the next 6 months, analyses will be updated for presentation at the conference Conclusion: The differences observed between patients achieving successful versus complete recanalization indicate that PROMs may be more adequate tool than the usual mRS for a fine-tune characterization of long-term outcome in different quality of life domains

    Abstract: Introduction: Perfusion imaging has emerged as an imaging tool to select patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) secondary to large vessel occlusion (LVO) for endovascular treatment (EVT). We aim to compare an automated method to assess the infarct ischemic core (IC) in Non-Contrast Computed Tomography (NCCT) with Computed Tomography Perfusion (CTP) imaging and its ability to predict functional outcome and final infarct volume (FIV). Methods: 494 patients with anterior circulation stroke treated with EVT were included. Volumetric assessment of IC in NCCT (eA-IC) was calculated using eASPECTS™ (Brainomix, Oxford). CTP was processed using availaible software considering CTP-IC as volume of Cerebral Blood Flow (CBF) 〈 30% comparing with the contralateral hemisphere. FIV was calculated in patients with complete recanalization using a semiautomated method with a NCCT performed 48-72 hours after EVT. Complete recanalization was considered as modified Thrombolysis In Cerebral Ischemia (mTICI) ≥2B after EVT. Good functional outcome was defined as modified Rankin score (mRs) ≤2 at 90 days. Statistical analysis was performed to assess the correlation between EA-IC and CTP-IC and its ability to predict prognosis and FIV. Results: Median eA-IC and CTP-IC were 16 (IQR 7-31) and 8 (IQR 0-28), respectively. 419 patients (85%) achieved complete recanalization, and their median FIV was 17.5cc (IQR 5-52). Good functional outcome was achieved in 230 patients (47%). EA-IC and CTP-IC had moderate correlation between them (r=0.52, p 〈 0.01) and similar correlation with FIV (r=0.52 and 0.51, respectively, p 〈 0.01). Using ROC curves, both methods had similar performance in its ability to predict good functional outcome (EA-IC AUC 0.68 p 〈 0.01, CTP-IC AUC 0.66 p 〈 0.01). Multivariate analysis adjusted by confounding factors showed that eA-IC and CTP-IC predicted good functional outcome (for every 10cc and 〉 40cc, OR 1.5, IC1.3-1.8, p 〈 0.01 and OR 1.3, IC1.1-1.5, p 〈 0.01, respectively). Conclusion: Automated volumetric assessment of infarct core in NCCT has similar performance predicting prognosis and final infarct volume than CTP. Prospective studies should evaluate a NCCT-core / vessel occlusion penumbra missmatch as an alternative method to select patients for EVT.
