Background
It is unknown whether technological advancement of stent-retriever devices influences typical observational indicators of safety or effectiveness.
Methods
Observational retrospective study of APERIO® (AP) vs. new generation APERIO® Hybrid (APH) (Acandis®, Pforzheim, Germany) stent-retriever device (01/2019–09/2020) for mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke. Primary effectiveness endpoint was successful recanalization eTICI (expanded Thrombolysis In Cerebral Ischemia) ≥ 2b67, primary safety endpoint was occurrence of hemorrhagic complications after MT. Secondary outcome measures were time from groin puncture to first pass and successful reperfusion, and the total number of passes needed to achieve the final recanalization result.
Results
A total of 298 patients with LVO stroke who were treated by MT matched the inclusion criteria: 148 patients (49.7%) treated with AP vs. 150 patients (50.3%) treated with new generation APH. Successful recanalization was not statistically different between both groups: 75.7% for AP vs. 79.3% for APH; p = 0.450. Postinterventional hemorrhagic complications and particularly subarachnoid hemorrhage as the entity possibly associated with stent-retriever device type was significantly less frequent in the group treated with the APH: 29.7% for AP and 16.0% for APH; p = 0.005; however, rates of symptomatic hemorrhage with clinical deterioration and in domo mortality were not statistically different. Neither the median number of stent-retriever passages needed to achieve final recanalization, time from groin puncture to first pass, time from groin puncture to final recanalization nor the number of cases in which successful recanalization could only be achieved by using a different stent-retriever as bail-out device differed between both groups.
Conclusion
In the specific example of the APERIO® stent-retriever device, we observed that further technological developments of the new generation device were not associated with disadvantages with respect to typical observational indicators of safety or effectiveness.
It remains unclear if principal components of the local cerebral stroke immune response can be reliably and reproducibly observed in patients with acute large-vessel-occlusion (LVO) stroke. We prospectively studied a large independent cohort of n = 318 consecutive LVO stroke patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy during which cerebral blood samples from within the occluded anterior circulation and systemic control samples from the ipsilateral cervical internal carotid artery were obtained. An extensive protocol was applied to homogenize the patient cohort and to standardize the procedural steps of endovascular sample collection, sample processing, and laboratory analyses. N = 58 patients met all inclusion criteria. (1) Mean total leukocyte counts were significantly higher within the occluded ischemic cerebral vasculature (I) vs. intraindividual systemic controls (S): +9.6%, I: 8114/µL ± 529 vs. S: 7406/µL ± 468, p = 0.0125. (2) This increase was driven by neutrophils: +12.1%, I: 7197/µL ± 510 vs. S: 6420/µL ± 438, p = 0.0022. Leukocyte influx was associated with (3) reduced retrograde collateral flow (R\(^2\) = 0.09696, p = 0.0373) and (4) greater infarct extent (R\(^2\) = 0.08382, p = 0.032). Despite LVO, leukocytes invade the occluded territory via retrograde collateral pathways early during ischemia, likely compromising cerebral hemodynamics and tissue integrity. This inflammatory response can be reliably observed in human stroke by harvesting immune cells from the occluded cerebral vascular compartment.
Störungen der Ionen- und Blutgas Homöostase mit Verschiebungen von Na+ und K+ in der regionalen Hypoxie sind ein Kennzeichen der experimentellen zerebralen Ischämie, wurden aber in ihrer Bedeutung für Schlaganfallpatienten noch nicht hinreichend untersucht. Wir berichten über eine prospektive, humane Querschnittsstudie an 366 Schlaganfallpatienten, die mit einer endovaskulären Rekanalisation bei einem akuten LVO der vorderen Zirkulation zwischen dem 18.Dezember 2018 und dem 31.August 2020 behandelt wurden. Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Dissertationsarbeit wurden intraprozedural arterielle Blutgasproben (1ml) aus dem lokal ischämischen Kollateralkreislauf und der intraindividuellen systemischen Referenzlokalisation in 51 Patienten gewonnen. Die Probengewinnung mit Hilfe eines Mikrokatheters erfolgte nach einem bereits veröffentlichten Protokoll.
Diese Arbeit weist in der Perakutphase eines Großgefäßverschlusses signifikant nach, dass der lokal ischämische paO2 (-4,29%, paO2ischämisch=185,3 mmHg vs. paO2systemisch=193,6mmHg; p=0,035) und die Konzentration von K+ (-5,49%, K+ischämisch=3,44mmol/L vs. K+systemisch=3,64mmol/L; p=0,0081) signifikant reduziert war. Wir beobachteten, dass der Na+:K+-Quotient in der Kollateralzirkulation (+3,29%; Na+:K+-Quotientischämisch=41,74 vs. Na+:K+-Quotientsystemisch=40,38; p=0,0048) im Vergleich zur systemischen Zirkulation signifikant erhöht war, während die Na+-Konzentration signifikant positiv mit einer Zunahme des Infarktausmaßes assoziiert war (r=0,42, p=0,0033). Wir fanden eine alkaline Tendenz des zerebralen pH (+0,14%, pHischämisch=7,38 vs. pHsystemisch=7,37, p=0,0019), mit einer zeitabhängigen Verschiebung in den azidotischen Bereich (r=-0,36, p=0,0549).
Schlussfolgernd deuten unsere Ergebnisse darauf hin, dass die durch den Schlaganfall verursachten Veränderungen der zerebralen Sauerstoffversorgung, der Ionenzusammensetzung und des Säure-Basen-Gleichgewichts dynamisch auftreten, während der okklusiven Ischämie fortschreiten und mit der akuten Gewebeschädigung im Zusammenhang stehen. Wünschenswert sind weitere prospektive Studien, um die Ergebnisse valide zu reproduzieren.
