Benefit from successful recanalization in an Italian cohort of stroke patients receiving endovascular treatments according to the DIRECT-MT trial criteria.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

To identify predictors of 3-month mRS score and to estimate the benefit from successful recanalization across baseline subgroups of Italian Registry of Endovascular Treatment in Acute Stroke (IRETAS) cohort of stroke patients receiving endovascular treatments according to the DIRECT-MT criteria.

Methods

Using a model of propensity score matching, we retrospectively identified an IRETAS cohort of 137 patients receiving bridging who were matched with 137 patients receiving MT alone according to the DIRECT-MT criteria.

Results

Differences were found between DIRECT-MT and IRETAS cohorts for 3-month mRS score 0 to 1 (23.5% vs. 33.1%) and 0 to 2 (36.7% vs. 47.1%), successful (82% vs. 76.7%) and complete recanalization (32.3% vs. 58.8%). Among unfavorable predic
