Development and Validation of a Prediction Model for Failure of the Transfemoral Approach of Endovascular Treatment for Large Vessel Occlusion Acute Ischemic Stroke.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Extracranial vascular characteristics determine the accessibility of the large vessel intracranial occlusion for endovascular treatment (EVT) in acute ischemic stroke. We developed and validated a prediction model for failure of the transfemoral approach to aid clinical decision-making regarding EVT.

Methods

A prediction model was developed from data of patients included in the Dutch multicenter MR CLEAN Registry (March 18, 2014, until June 15, 2016) with penalized logistic regression. Predictor variables were available prior to the EVT procedure and included age, hypertension, and extracranial vascular characteristics assessed on baseline CTA. The prediction model was internally validated, temporally validated within a second MR CLEAN Registry cohort (June 15,
