Inclusion criteria
* Subject experiencing an acute ischemic stroke in which imaging demonstrates a vascular occlusion located in the distal internal carotid artery (ICA) through the distal middle cerebral artery (MCA). * Subjects in which the aspiration technique is used for at least the first two thrombectomy passes per occluded vessel. * Subjects older than 18 yo. * Subjects with a prestroke modified Rankin scale of 0-2 and presenting with an NIHSS of 2-30. * Subjects that the operator feels may be treated with endovascular therapy * Subjects in which computed tomography (CT)/Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) demonstrates an infarct size of less than 70cc on MRI or Alberta Stroke Program Early CT (ASPECTS) score overall of 6 or better. * Subjects in which groin puncture can be obtained within 6 hours of symptom onset (with or without Total Plasminogen Activator administration). In those Patients of more than 8 hours or awake stroke or of unknown onset should be individualized the treatment and must exist area of penumbra in CT perfusion * Subjects who have consented in accordance with local Institutional Review Board requirements
Exclusion criteria
* Absence of large vessel occlusion on neuroimaging. * Platelet count \< 100 x 10³ cells/mm³ or known platelet dysfunction. * Contraindication to CT and/or MRI (i.e., due to contrast allergy or prior implant that precludes MRI imaging). * Previously documented contrast allergy that is not amenable to medical treatment. * Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding at time of intervention. * Evidence of brain hemorrhage on CT and/or MRI at presenting hospital.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| modified rankin scale (mRs) at 90 days [effectiveness] | 90 days | Is a commonly used scale for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability. Score Description: The scale runs from 0-6, running from perfect health without symptoms to death. 0 No symptoms at all No significant disability despite symptoms; able to carry out all usual duties and activities Slight disability; unable to carry out all previous activities, but able to look after own affairs without assistance Moderate disability; requiring some help, but able to walk without assistance Moderately severe disability; unable to walk without assistance and unable to attend to own bodily needs without assistance Severe disability; bedridden, incontinent and requiring constant nursing care and attention Dead \[Time Frame: 90 days\] |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Symptomatic intracranial bleeding [safety of the technique] | First 14 days | The rate of patients with intracranial hemorrhage (measured by computed tomography) with worsening of 4 points on the NIHSS scale will be evaluated. |
| Thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (TICI) scale 2b-3 [effectiveness] | Up to 24 hours after endovascular reperfusion | After endovascular reperfusion technique, TICI score will be evaluated in all consecutive patients. The rate of TICI 2b-3 will be recorded as a effectiveness endpoint. |
