    Kurzfassung: 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.

    Kurzfassung: The purpose of the COMPLETE (International Acute Ischemic Stroke Registry With the Penumbra System Aspiration Including the 3D Revascularization Device) registry was to evaluate the generalizability of the safety and efficacy of the Penumbra System (Penumbra, Inc, Alameda) in a real-world setting. Methods: COMPLETE was a global, prospective, postmarket, multicenter registry. Patients with large vessel occlusion–acute ischemic stroke who underwent mechanical thrombectomy using the Penumbra System with or without the 3D Revascularization Device as frontline approach were enrolled at 42 centers (29 United States, 13 Europe) from July 2018 to October 2019. Primary efficacy end points were successful postprocedure angiographic revascularization (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction ≥2b) and 90-day functional outcome (modified Rankin Scale score 0–2). The primary safety end point was 90-day all-cause mortality. An imaging core lab determined modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction scores, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Scores, clot location, and occurrence of intracranial hemorrhage at 24 hours. Independent medical reviewers adjudicated safety end points. Results: Six hundred fifty patients were enrolled (median age 70 years, 54.0% female, 49.2% given intravenous recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator before thrombectomy). Rate of modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 2b to 3 postprocedure was 87.8% (95% CI, 85.3%–90.4%). First pass and postprocedure rates of modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 2c to 3 were 41.5% and 66.2%, respectively. At 90 days, 55.8% (95% CI, 51.9%–59.7%) had modified Rankin Scale score 0 to 2, and all-cause mortality was 15.5% (95% CI, 12.8%–18.3%). Conclusions: Using Penumbra System for frontline mechanical thrombectomy treatment of patients with large vessel occlusion–acute ischemic stroke in a real-world setting was associated with angiographic, clinical, and safety outcomes that were comparable to prior randomized clinical trials with stringent site and operator selection criteria.

    Kurzfassung: 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.

    Kurzfassung: Identifying infarct core or irreversible infarct on admission is essential in order to establish the amount of salvageable tissue and indicate reperfusion therapies. CT perfusion (CTP) has been reported to be useful differentiating the penumbra as the mismatch between infarct core and hypoperfused brain. Infarct core is established on CTP as the severely hypoperfused areas, however the correlation between hypoperfusion and infarct core may be time dependent and not always true as it is not a direct tissue damage indicator. We aim to characterize those cases in which admission core lesion on CTP does not reflect an infarct on follow-up imaging. Methods: We studied patients with ICA/MCA occlusion who underwent CTP on admission but received endovascular thrombectomy based on initial non-contrast CT ASPECTS≥7. Admission infarct core was measured on initial CBV-CTP and final infarct on follow-up imaging. We defined ghost infarct core (GIC) as: initial core - final infarct 〉 10cc. Time from symptom onset to CTP was recorded. Recanalization (TICI2b3) was assessed after thrombectomy. Results: 79 patients were studied: ICA/MCA occlusion 21/58, median NIHSS 17(11-20), mean time from symptoms to CTP: 218±143minutes. Recanalization rate was: 77% Mean CBV infarct core was 44±59cc, and mean final infarct volume was 38±70cc. 30 patients (38%) presented a GIC 〉 10cc and 22(29%) a GIC 〉 20cc. GIC 〉 10cc was associated with recanalization (TICI2b3:44 Vs 17%; p=0.034), admission glicemia ( 〈 185mg/dl:42% Vs 0%; p=0.028) and time to CTP (185:26%; p=0.033). An adjusted logistic regression model showed time from symptom to CTP imaging 10cc (OR: 2.89, 95%CI: 1.04-8.09). Similar results were observed if infarct core was defined with CBF maps. Conclusion: CT perfusion may overestimate final infarct core especially in the early window from symptom onset. Selecting patients for reperfusion therapies based on the CTP mismatch concept may deny treatment to patients who may still benefit from reperfusion.

    Kurzfassung: Background and Purpose: Extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) lesion in the setting of tandem occlusions is a therapeutic challenge, and hemorrhagic transformation (HT) is one of the leading causes of poor clinical outcome. We aimed to determine determinants of HT for tandem occlusions undergoing emergent extracranial ICA stenting during endovascular treatment (EVT). Methods: We performed a prospective, observational cohort study of consecutive patients with non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke due to tandem occlusion who underwent EVT with extracranial ICA stent placement during the procedure from April 2013 to June 2019 in a single stroke center. We compared clinical (vascular risk factors, previous antiplatelet treatment, and IV rtPA), radiological (ASPECTS at admission and in-stent thrombosis at 24 hours) and serological (platelet count, fibrinogen, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, and LDL-cholesterol) parameters according to the presence of HT in 24 hours CT-scan. Results: One-hundred and eight patients were included: 78.7% were men, mean age 68.5±14.3 years, median time from symptoms onset to treatment was 220 (150-337.5) minutes, median ASPECTS at admission was 9 (8-10). Eighty-six (79.6%) patients presented an extracranial ICA occlusion, and 22 (20.4%) a high-grade ( 〉 50%) stenosis. In 88 (81.5%) patients the etiology of extracranial ICA lesion was ateroma, and in 20 (18.5%) was a dissection. Intravenous rtPA was administered in 47 (43.5%) patients. Successful recanalization (mTICI ≥2b) was achieved in 83 (76.9%) patients, and extracranial ICA recanalization in 108 (100%) patients. Type 2 diabetes (OR 1.5, 95% CI 1.1-3.5), higher fibrinogen levels (OR 4.6, 95% CI 1.6-12.9), and ASPECTS 〈 7 at admission (OR 2.1, 95% IC 1.1-5.1) were found as independent predictors of HT in multiple logistic regression analysis. Conclusions: Patients with a non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke due to tandem occlusion who present type 2 diabetes, higher fibrinogen levels, or ASPECTS 〈 7 at admission are at high risk of HT. In these particular cases, it might be useful to stent with a stent that does not need double antiplatelet treatment immediately after the procedure.

    Kurzfassung: Introduction: The best technique for selecting acute stroke patients for reperfusion therapies is not defined yet. ASPECTS is a useful score for assessing the extent of early ischemic signs in the anterior circulation on non-contrast CT (CT). Cerebral blood volume (CBV) on CT perfusion (CTP) defines the core lesion assumed to be irreversibly damaged. Whether CBV provides additional information over CT in the initial ASPECTS assessment is unknown. We aim to explore the advantages of CBV_ASPECTS over CT_ASPECTS in the prediction of final infarct volume. Methods: Consecutive patients with middle cerebral or internal carotid artery occlusion who underwent endovascular reperfusion treatment according to initial CT_ASPECTS≥7 were studied. CBV_ASPECTS was assessed blindly later-on. Recanalization was defined as TICI2b3. Final infarct volumes were measured on follow-up imaging. We defined an irrelevant ASPECTS difference (IAD) as: CT_ASPECTS - CBV_ASPECTS≤1. Results: Sixty-five patients, mean age 67±14, median NIHSS:16(10-20) were studied. Recanalization rate was: 78.5%. Median CT_ASPECTS was 9(8-10), and CBV_ASPECTS 8(8-10). Mean time from symptom onset to CT was 219±143 min. 50 patients (76.9%) showed an IAD. The ASPECTS difference was inversely correlated to the time from symptom onset to CT (r:-0.36, p 〈 0.01). A ROC curve defined 120 minutes as the best cut-off time point after which the ASPECTS difference becomes irrelevant. The rate of IAD was significantly higher after 120 minutes (89.5% Vs 37.5; p 〈 0.01). CBV_ASPECTS but not CT_ASPECTS correlated to the final infarct (r:-0.33, p 〈 0.01). However, if CT was done 〉 2 hours after symptom onset, then CT_ASPECTS was correlated to final infarct (r:-0.39, p=0.01). No other variables were associated with CT-CBV_ASPECTS difference. Conclusions: In acute stroke patient CBV_ASPECTS correlates with final infarct volume. However, when CT is performed after 120 minutes from symptoms onset CBV_ASPECTS does not add relevant information to CT_ASPECTS.

    Kurzfassung: Background: We aim to evaluate the feasibility and safety of a direct transfer to the angio-suite protocol for acute stroke patients candidates for endovascular treatment (EVT). Methods: Starting June 2016, patients with pre-hospital stroke code activation (RACE≥4) admitted within 4.5h from symptoms-onset were directly transferred on admission to angio-suite (DTA) bypassing the emergency room. After Xpert-CT in the angio-suite for parenchymal evaluation, femoral puncture and EVT were performed as usual. Patients following DTA were compared to all patients with same admission criteria treated with EVT in the previous 2 years (control group, CG). Results: Of the 16 patients that followed DTA, 1 (6%) showed an intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) on Xpert-CT and 15 underwent EVT, representing 50% of EVT admitted within 4.5h or 34% of all EVT performed in the study period. 56% of DTA patients had previous neuroimaging at a primary stroke center, 44% were primary admissions with no previous neuroimaging. Baseline characteristics including age (71 Vs 72 years; p=0.71) and admission NIHSS (18.5 Vs 18;p=0.68) were comparable. Median time from admission to groin puncture was significantly shorter in DTA patients (15 minutes IQR:13-19 Vs 65 IQR:45-10;p 〈 0.01). Rate of no treatable occlusion on initial angiogram was 13.3% in DTA Vs 2.4% in CG (p=0.17). Procedural time (36 Vs 55 minutes;p=0.034) was shorter in the DTA group, while recanalization (TICI 2b-3: 86% Vs 81%;p=0.24) and symptomatic ICH rates(6.7% Vs 6.6%;p=0.98) and 24h NIHSS (10 Vs 10.5; p=0.81) were comparable. The total time from admission to recanalization was significantly shorter when DTA was applied (median 52 Vs 123;p 〈 0.01). Conclusion: In a subgroup of acute stroke patients presenting in the early window, direct transfer and triage in the angio-suite seems feasible, safe and achieves a significant reduction in hospital workflow times.

    Kurzfassung: Substantial proportion of patients who achieve successful recanalization of acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion do not achieve good functional outcome. We aim to analyze the effect of number of thrombectomy device passes and degree of the recanalization (by modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction) on the clinical and functional outcome. Methods— Five hundred forty-two consecutive patients underwent mechanical thrombectomy for large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation at a single tertiary stroke center. Baseline characteristics, number of passes, recanalization degree, clinical outcome at 24 hours (measured by National Institutes of Health Scale score), and functional outcome (measured by modified Rankin Scale at 90 days) were registered. Multivariate analysis was performed to determine the association of number of passes and degree of recanalization with dramatical clinical recovery (final National Institutes of Health Scale score ≤2 or decrease in 8 or more National Institutes of Health Scale score points in 24 hours) and good functional outcome (modified Rankin Scale score ≤2 at 90 days). Results— Four hundred fifty-nine patients (84%) achieved successful recanalization (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 2B–3), 213 (39%) of them after first device pass. In the multivariate analysis, first-pass recanalization and modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 3 were independent predictors of good functional outcome (odds ratio, 2.5; 95% CI, 1.4–4.5; P =0.002 and odds ratio, 2.6 CI; 1.5–4.7; P =0.001, respectively) and dramatical clinical recovery (odds ratio, 1.8; 95% CI, 1.1–3; P =0.032 and odds ratio, 2.9; 95% CI, 1.7–5.1; P 〈 0.001, respectively). Rate of recanalization declined after each pass 39% (213/542), 35% (113/310), 33% (63/190), and 24% (26/154) for passes 1 to 4, respectively and 28% (45/158) for every attempt above 4 passes ( P 〈 0.001). In patients who achieved recanalization, a linear association between number of passes and good functional outcome was observed: 1 pass (58.6%), 2 passes (50.5%), 3 passes (48.4%), 4 passes (38.5%), or 5 or more passes (25.6%; P 〈 0.001) as compared with patients who did not achieve recanalization (16.9%). Conclusions— High number of device passes and less degree of recanalization are associated with worse outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to large vessel occlusion. Future studies should investigate the optimal number of passes that should be attempted in patients without substantial recanalization.

    Kurzfassung: Different studies have pointed that CT perfusion (CTP) could overestimate ischemic core in early time window. We aim to evaluate the influence of time and collateral status on ischemic core overestimation. Methods: Retrospective single-center study including patients with anterior circulation large-vessel stroke that achieved reperfusion after endovascular treatment. Ischemic core and collateral status were automatically estimated on baseline CTP using commercially available software. CTP-derived core was considered as tissue with a relative reduction of cerebral blood flow 〈 30%, as compared with contralateral hemisphere. Collateral status was assessed using the hypoperfusion intensity ratio (defined by the proportion of the time to maximum of tissue residue function 〉 6 seconds with time to maximum of tissue residue function 〉 10 seconds). Final infarct volume was measured on 24 to 48 hours noncontrast CT. Ischemic core overestimation was considered when CTP-derived core was larger than final infarct. Results: Four hundred and seven patients were included in the analysis. Median CTP-derived core and final infarct volume were 7 mL (interquartile range, 0–27) and 20 mL (interquartile range, 5–55), respectively. Median hypoperfusion intensity ratio was 0.46 (interquartile range, 0.23–0.59). Eighty-three patients (20%) presented ischemic core overestimation (median overestimation, 12 mL [interquartile range, 41–5]). Multivariable logistic regression analysis adjusted by CTP-derived core and confounding variables showed that poor collateral status (per 0.1 hypoperfusion intensity ratio increase; adjusted odds ratio, 1.41 [95% CI, 1.20–1.65] ) and earlier onset to imaging time (per 60 minutes earlier; adjusted odds ratio, 1.14 [CI, 1.04–1.25]) were independently associated with core overestimation. No significant association was found with imaging to reperfusion time (per 30 minutes earlier; adjusted odds ratio, 1.17 [CI, 0.96–1.44] ). Poor collateral status influence on core overestimation differed according to onset to imaging time, with a stronger size of effect on early imaging patients( P interaction 〈 0.01). Conclusions: In patients with large-vessel stroke that achieve reperfusion after endovascular therapy, poor collateral status might induce higher rates of ischemic core overestimation on CTP, especially in patients in earlier window time. CTP reflects a hemodynamic state rather than tissue fate; collateral status and onset to imaging time are important factors to consider when estimating core on CTP.
