First‐Pass Effect With Aspiration Thrombectomy With the Penumbra System in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Core Laboratory–Adjudicated Subset Analysis of the COMPLETE Registry
Abstract:BACKGROUND
In patients with acute ischemic stroke, minimizing the time to revascularization can minimize neuronal death. First‐pass effect (FPE), defined as successful or complete revascularization of an occluded target vessel with 1 pass of a mechanical thrombectomy device(s), reduces the time to revascularization. The objective of this study was to determine the FPE rate, compare cases in which FPE was versus was not achieved, and determine predictors of good functional outcome at 90 days, in pat… Show more
