And here's another meta-analysis yet again showing benefit (mRS 0-2) when giving TPA/TNK in the 4.5-24 hour window based on penumbral imaging.
When is this going to become mainstream?

This review indicates that there is no clear, well-supported recommendation to administer DDAVP to patients with antiplatelet-associated #ICH. Anfd there was also a soft signal towards more thromboembolic events.

I am thrilled to share that the SPIDER-WEB study comparing carotid revasc vs. medical tx in patients with symptomatic carotid webs is complete. The results will be submitted to ISC 2027. We are grateful for the contributing sites.
Do you think we have a winner? #stroke #ISC27

In the landmark CREST-2 study, revascularization did not influence cognition in patients with otherwise asymptomatic carotid stenosis. Read the key results: jwat.ch/4dfphlh

Super large bore aspiration catheters (SLACs) in stroke thrombectomy:
đź“Š A systematic review of 532 patients found ~92% thrombus access, ~55% first-pass effect, and ~81% final near-complete reperfusion, with low complication rates.
🔬 Larger prospective trials are still needed to define their optimal role.

A tremendous honor to work with everyone with collaborative expertise here at USC!
Incredible neurovascular program @KeckMedicineUSC featuring #neurosurgery, #neurology & #radiology. David L our superstar #stroke #neurologist starts things off by casting a vision of an NV Operating System. #Brilliant @NeimanHPI @SNISinfo #Neuro

Should we be billing for the patient messages on epic?
Yes.

For patients with acute ischemic stroke, should we extend the time window for intravenous thrombolysis beyond the conventional 4.5 hours? A review and meta-analysis provides new insights. @ChaturvediNeuro share the key results: jwat.ch/4h5R0Ga
ALT A quote on a blue background reads: "I expect that many hospitals will develop protocols to treat patients who meet these criteria and are not candidates for thrombectomy." Below the quote is the name Seemant Chaturvedi, M.D. Faint images of medical brain scans are visible in the background. The bottom right corner features the NEJM Clinician logo.

Not sure what to make of this demographic analysis to predict hemorrhagic transformation post thrombectomy.
I think what matters most is what happened in the procedure: number passes, devices used, experience, etc
which were entirely unexamined here..

Antithrombogenic fibrin/heparin coated stent CARESTO for carotid stenosis. Still required 3mo of DAPT. Arguably less in-stent stenosis but difference is minimal, compared to non-coated
