The Basilar Artery Collateral Simplified Score: a Novel Collateral Circulation Score Associated With Outcomes in Patients With Basilar Artery Occlusion: Results From the ATTENTION Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The aim of the current study was to develop a simplified collateral score for basilar artery occlusion and assess its impact on the relationship between procedure time and outcomes.

Methods and results

The derivation cohort (n=221) from the ATTENTION (Endovascular Treatment for Acute Basilar Artery Occlusion) study was used. Variables identified by logistic regression were used to develop the Basilar Artery Collateral Simplified Score (BACSS). Its performance was assessed through discrimination and calibration. BACSS was evaluated in an external cohort (n=191). The association between BACSS and outcomes was evaluated using adjusted logistic regression. In patients receiving endovascular treatment, associations of BACSS and time from puncture to recanalization with
