Background and Purpose— The WEAVE trial (Wingspan Stent System Post Market Surveillance) is a postmarket surveillance mandated by the Food Drug Administration to assess periprocedural safety of Wingspan system in treatment symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic disease. Methods— A total 152 consecutive patients who met on-label usage criteria were enrolled at 24 hospitals underwent angioplasty stenting with stent. On-label included age 22 80 years, stenosis 70% 99%, baseline modified...

<h3>Importance</h3> In-stent restenosis (ISR) is the primary reason for stroke recurrence after intracranial stenting in patients who were treated with a standard bare-metal stent (BMS). Whether drug-eluting (DES) could reduce risk of ISR atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) remains unclear. <h3>Objective</h3> To investigate whether DES can and symptomatic high-grade ICAS. <h3>Design, Settings, Participants</h3> A prospective, multicenter, open-label randomized clinical trial blinded outcome...

Background Prior studies evaluating the Wingspan stent for treatment of symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic disease have included patients with a spectrum both on-label and off-label indications stent. The WEAVE trial assessed 152 stented strictly by its current indication found 2.6% periprocedural stroke death rate. Objective This WOVEN study assesses 1-year follow-up from this cohort. Methods Twelve original 24 sites enrolling in performed chart review imaging analysis up to 1 year...

There were limited data on the long-term outcome of patients with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis ≥70% after Wingspan stenting. Using our cohort and from Warfarin Aspirin for Symptomatic Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease (WASID) as a historical control, we tested hypothesis that stenting provided no benefit over antithrombotic therapy alone these high-risk patients.Between January 2007 February 2009, 100 consecutive symptoms within 90 days enrolled into this prospective...

Clinical methods have incomplete diagnostic value for early diagnosis of acute stroke and large vessel occlusion (LVO). Electroencephalography is rapidly sensitive to brain ischemia. This study examined the utility electroencephalography stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA) LVO.Patients (n=100) with suspected in an emergency department underwent clinical exam then using a dry-electrode system. Four models classified patients, first as stroke/TIA or not, LVO not: (1) data, (2) (3)...

Eighteen patients underwent stenting for symptomatic basilar artery stenosis. There were three major periprocedural complications (16.7%) without fatality. At a mean 26.7 ± 12.1-month follow-up, 15 (83.3%) had an excellent long-term outcome. Only one patient (5.6%) moderate disability from recurrent stroke, and two died of medical illness at 30 36 months after stenting. In this uncontrolled study, appeared to be effective in reducing stroke risk death worthy further scrupulous trial.

Background Point-of-care (POC) MRI is a bedside imaging technology with fewer than five units in clinical use the United States and paucity of scientific studies on applications. Purpose To evaluate operational impacts deploying POC emergency department (ED) intensive care unit (ICU) patient settings for neuroimaging, including turnaround time. Materials Methods In this preliminary retrospective study, all patients ED ICU at single academic medical center who underwent noncontrast brain from...

Despite the availability of commercial artificial intelligence (AI) tools for large vessel occlusion (LVO) detection, there is paucity data comparing traditional machine learning and deep solutions in a real-world setting. The purpose this study to compare validate performance two AI-based (RAPID LVO CINA LVO) detection.This was retrospective, single center performed at comprehensive stroke from December 2020 June 2021. CT angiography (n = 263) suspected were evaluated LVO. RAPID model which...

Purpose Automated large vessel occlusion (LVO) tools allow for prompt identification of positive LVO cases, but little is known about their role in acute stroke triage when implemented a real-world setting. The purpose this study was to evaluate the automated detection tool’s impact on workflow and clinical outcomes. Materials methods Consecutive patients with computed tomography angiography (CTA) presenting suspected ischemic were compared before after implementation an AI tool, RAPID...
