Efficacy of a Direct Aspiration First-Pass Technique (ADAPT) for Endovascular Treatment in Different Etiologies of Large Vessel Occlusion: Embolism vs. Intracranial Atherosclerotic Stenosis.

ABSTRACT: Background and Aims: Aspiration thrombectomy is an effective method of recanalizing large vessel occlusion (LVO). However, the efficacy of a direct aspiration first-pass technique (ADAPT) for recanalization of LVO of different etiologies is not properly understood. Methods: The prospectively collected database on ADAPT was reviewed retrospectively. We defined two groups of enrolled patients: the embolism-related occlusions (EMB-O) group and the intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS)-related occlusion (ICAS-O) group. Baseline characteristics, procedural variables, and post-procedural variables were collected. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify first-pass recanalization predictors. Results: Of 114 registered patients, 94 were eligible fo
