Evaluating patients for thrombectomy [PDF]
The treatment of acute ischemic stroke patients with a proximal large vessel occlusion (LVO) in the anterior circulation has seen tremendous advances initially with the demonstration of the substantial benefit of thrombectomy within 6-h of stroke onset ...

Thrombectomy in Childhood Stroke
Background Several randomized trials have shown the efficacy of thrombectomy for large intracranial vessel occlusions in adults. However, the safety and efficacy of thrombectomy in children are unknown. We aimed to investigate the feasibility and outcome

Large vessel occlusion stroke contributes to disability and mortality out of proportion to its incidence. Over time it was noted that intravenous thrombolysis alone was not sufficient for this stroke type. Slowly, endovascular approach and mechanical clot retrieval have come out to be the biggest advances in the field of ...

Aspiration thrombectomy in concert with stent thrombectomy [PDF]
In the SWIFT and TREVO 2 trials, aspiration thrombectomy was not able to be performed. Outside these studies, in post-market application, the interventionist can use aspiration thrombectomy in addition to stent device thrombectomy. This technique is described in detail in the present report.

Simulation‐based team‐training in acute stroke: Is it safe to speed up?
Abstract Background In acute ischemic stroke (AIS), rapid treatment with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) is crucial for good clinical outcome. Weekly simulation‐based team‐training of the stroke treatment team was implemented, resulting in faster treatment times.

Obesity and Mechanical Thrombectomy [PDF]
Background Obesity has been shown to have a positive mortality benefit in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, dialysis, those with rheumatoid arthritis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and various wasting diseases. Studies for this mortality benefit in ischemic stroke patients are conflicting, and it has not been well studied

Low‐field MRI: Clinical promise and challenges
Modern MRI scanners have trended toward higher field strengths to maximize signal and resolution while minimizing scan time. However, high‐field devices remain expensive to install and operate, making them scarce outside of high‐income countries and major population centers.

Thrombectomy for Acute Internal Carotid Thrombosis: Five Thrombectomy Devices Compared [PDF]
To test the safety and efficiency of commercially available thrombectomy catheters in clearing simulated internal carotid artery (ICA) thrombosis.Comparative in vitro study.A model of the ICA was filled with human thrombus, the 'circle of Willis' back pressure was set at either 10 or 30 cm of water.

Abstract Ischemic stroke (IS) has become a cerebrovascular disease of widespread concern. Overexpression of circUCK2 alleviates neuronal damage in IS. However, the specific regulatory mechanisms of circUCK2 are not fully understood. In this study, we found that circUCK2 and HECT domain E3 ubiquitin ligase 1 (HECTD1) were downregulated in IS models in ...

Mechanical Thrombectomy in Stroke [PDF]
The introduction of neurological stroke units and of thrombolysis with the intravenous (IV) administration of recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) have markedly improved the treatment of stroke. Five randomized trials of catheter-based interventional treatment of stroke with special stents were published in 2015.Recently published ...
