Abstract: Introduction Rapid expansion of mechanical thrombectomy and swift manufacturing development has translated into significant evolution of large bore catheter technology. The objective of this study was to evaluate the association among diverse structural components of large bore aspiration catheters on procedural performance. Methods Retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained mechanical thrombectomy consortium (SVIN Registry) treated with stand‐alone contact aspiration for the first pass in the MCA M1 or intracranial ICA occlusions from 2012‐2021. Catheters were stratified based on construction materials, tip technology, catheter sizing, and catheter lining. Factors associated with first pass effect (FPE ‐ first‐pass eTICI2c‐3 reperfusion) as well as speed of clot engagement were analyzed. Results We identified 983 patients with proximal occlusion and aspiration as the first pass technique. FPE was observed in 34% and associated with age (OR:1.016;95%CI:1.006‐1.027), cardioembolic stroke etiology (OR:1.685;95%CI:1.77 ‐2.41), MCA M1(OR:2.737;95%CI:1.091 ‐1.867), non‐general anesthesia (OR:0.546;95%CI:0.389 ‐0.767), as well as with 0.070” (OR:2.038;95%CI:1.099 ‐3.779) and 0.088” (OR:3.899;95%CI:1.582 ‐9.606) distal catheter inner diameter in the adjusted analysis. Median time from arterial access to clot contact was 17 minutes with faster times observed in younger patients (OR:0.986;95%CI:0.975 ‐0.996) as well as with the use of aspiration catheters with shorter length of distal outer hydrophilic coating (18‐30cm) on multivariable regression (OR:0.303; 95%CI:0.113‐0.816). Conclusion Larger aspiration catheter distal inner diameter was associated with higher rates of FPE. Aspiration catheters with reduced distal tip hydrophilic coating were associated with faster arterial access to clot contact time.
