Intracranial Artery Occlusion With Infarction (Disorder) |
Study Type : | Observational [Patient Registry] |
Actual Enrollment : | 2004 participants |
Observational Model: | Case-Only |
Time Perspective: | Prospective |
Target Follow-Up Duration: | 90 Days |
Official Title: | Endovascular Treatment Key Technique and Emergency Work Flow Improvement of Acute Ischemic stroke-a Prospective Multicenter Registry Study |
Actual Study Start Date : | November 11, 2017 |
Actual Primary Completion Date : | July 7, 2019 |
Actual Study Completion Date : | July 7, 2019 |

- Functional independence at 90 days (modified Rankin Scale of 0-2) [ Time Frame: 90±7 days after enrollment ]The range of modified Rankin Scale was from 0 to 6. 0-No symptoms;1-No significant disability;2-Slight disability;3-Moderate disability;4-Moderately severe disability;5-Severe disability;6 -Dead.A higher score indicates worse a outcome.
- Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) within 12-36 hours after the procedure [ Time Frame: 12-36 hours after the procedure ]Heidelberg Bleeding Classification): new intracranial hemorrhage detected by brain imaging associated with ≥4 points total National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), ≥2 points in one NIHSS category, leading to intubation/ hemicraniectomy/ EVD placement or other major medical/surgical intervention, or absence of alternative explanation for deterioration
- Time from symptom onset to recanalization [ Time Frame: The end of the procedure ]
- Recanalization rate at the end of the procedure [ Time Frame: at the end of the procedure ]mTICI score 2b-3
- Recanalization rate after the first attempt [ Time Frame: At baseline, during the procedure, after the first attempt of endovascular treatment ]mTICI score 2b-3
- Changes in NIHSS score immediately after the procedure [ Time Frame: within 2 hours after the procedure ]difference between NIHSS score immediately after the procedure and baseline
- Changes in NIHSS score 24 hours after the procedure [ Time Frame: 24 hours after the procedure ]difference between NIHSS score 24 hours after the procedure and baseline
- Changes in NIHSS score 7 days after the procedure or at discharge [ Time Frame: 7 days after the procedure or discharge ]difference between NIHSS score 7 days after the procedure or discharge and baseline
- EQ-5D 90 days after the procedure [ Time Frame: 90±7 days after the procedure ]EQ-5D is a standardized instrument for measuring generic health status. Rated level can be coded as a number 1, 2, or 3, which indicates having no problems for 1, having some problems for 2, and having extreme problems for 3. As a result, a person's health status can be defined by a 5-digit number, ranging from 11111 (having no problems in all dimensions) to 33333 (having extreme problems in all dimensions).A higher score indicates a better outcome.
- Barthel index (BI) 90 days after the procedure [ Time Frame: 90±7 days after the procedure ]The BI has a score of 0-100. A higher score indicates a better outcome.
- Parenchymal hematoma (PH2) [ Time Frame: 12-36 hours after the procedure ]PH2 is defined as hematoma in >30% of infarct area
- Any intracranial hemorrhage on imaging [ Time Frame: 12-36 hours after the procedure ]
- All-cause mortality within 90 days [ Time Frame: 90±7 days after the procedure ]
- Time from onset to arrival [ Time Frame: At baseline, after arrival at the hospital ]
- Time from arrival to imaging [ Time Frame: At baseline, after taking any brain imaging ]
- Time from imaging to puncture [ Time Frame: At baseline, during the procedure, after successful groin puncture ]
- Time from puncture to recanalization [ Time Frame: At baseline, during the procedure, after successful recanalization ]
