DAWN trial: solution or problem?

Key point: The main results of the “magnificent seven” (MR-CLEAN, ESCAPE, EXTEND-IA, SWIFT PRIME, REVASCAT, THRACE, THERAPY) regarding stroke therapy showed that endovascular thrombectomy had a clinical benefit when it was performed within 6 hours after the onset of stroke symptoms and that there is an inverse relation between time and the benefit of the Read more about DAWN trial: solution or problem?[…]

Clot friction variation with fibrin content; implications for resistance to thrombectomy.

Gunning GM1, McArdle K1, Mirza M1, Duffy S1,2, Gilvarry M1, Brouwer PA3. Abstract BACKGROUND: Despite significant advancements in the procedural efficacy of mechanical thrombectomy in patients with ischemic stroke in recent years, there still remains a portion of the population that does not achieve good recanalization. The reasons for this may be varied. We hypothesized Read more about Clot friction variation with fibrin content; implications for resistance to thrombectomy.[…]

Direct Mechanical Intervention Versus Combined Intravenous and Mechanical Intervention in Large Artery Anterior Circulation Stroke: A Matched-Pairs Analysis.

Anne Broeg-Morvay, Pasquale Mordasini, Corrado Bernasconi, Monika Bühlmann, Frauke Pult, Marcel Arnold, Gerhard Schroth, Simon Jung, Heinrich P. Mattle, Jan Gralla, Urs Fischer Abstract BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Five randomized controlled trials have consistently shown that mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in addition to best medical treatment (±intravenous tissue-type plasminogen activator) improves outcome after acute ischemic stroke in Read more about Direct Mechanical Intervention Versus Combined Intravenous and Mechanical Intervention in Large Artery Anterior Circulation Stroke: A Matched-Pairs Analysis.[…]
