Asymptomatic Intracranial Hemorrhage Is Associated With Poor Outcomes After Mechanical Thrombectomy for Large Vessel Occlusion

Year: 2022
Type: article
Abstract: everal clinical trials have demonstrated the superiority of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for acute ischemic stroke caused by emergent large vessel occlusion.However, intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is a common complication after MT.Symptomatic ICH occurs in 5% to 16% of patients with acute ischemic stroke after MT and is associated with poor outcomes.Although asymptomatic ICH is a more common, occurring in 30% to 40% of patients, it remains unclear whether asymptomatic ICH affects the clinical outcomes.This post hoc study aimed to investigate the clinical effects of asymptomatic ICH in patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with MT. METHODSPatient data were retrospectively collected from the SKIP 1 study that was an investigator-initiated, multicenter, randomized clinical trial (UMIN000021488).
