Brief summary

The study objective is to examine the recanalization efficacy of the EmboTrap device and its associated performance characteristics and to record associated clinical outcomes in a manner that facilitates relevant comparison of outputs with that of devices approved in the U.S. for clearing Large Vessel Occlusions.

Occurrence of Symptomatic Intracerebral Hemorrhage (sICH) Within 24 Hours Post-procedure and Any Other Serious Adverse Device Effects (SADE)

The primary safety endpoint will be measured as the occurrence of Symptomatic Intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) within 24 hours (-8/+12 hrs) post-procedure, together with any other Serious Adverse Device Effects (excluding those already counted in sICH). sICH was assessed using the Heidelberg Bleeding Classification, i.e. any intracerebral hemorrhage associated with an increase of ≥4 points in the NIHSS scale or an increase of ≥2 points of a NIHSS subcategory or that leads to major medical intervention. SADE was categorized as any serious adverse event that was deemed to be caused by the study device.
