Endovascular Thrombectomy Versus Best Medical Management in Patients With Large Vessel Occlusion Stroke Presenting Beyond 24 Hours: Results From the TRACK-LVO Late Multicenter Cohort.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The efficacy and safety of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) performed beyond 24 hours from the last known well remain uncertain. This study aims to investigate the potential benefits of EVT versus best medical management (BMM) beyond 24 hours.

Methods

TRACK-LVO Late (Late Triage of Patients Presenting Beyond 24 Hours With Acute Ischemic Stroke Due to Large Vessel Occlusions) is an ongoing, multicenter, prospective cohort study. A total of 410 individuals met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and were included in the cohort analyses from 2018 to 2024. The primary outcome was functional independence, defined as a modified Rankin Scale score of 0-2 at 90 days. Safety outcomes included all-cause mortality within 90 days and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage. A pro
