Barnes-Jewish St. Peters Hospital is now a certified Advanced Thrombectomy Capable Stroke Center! This would not have been possible without the tremendous effort of everyone on our team. Thank you and congratulations!

🚨Day 3 kicks off with the SVIN/WFITN joint session! @TudorGJovin discusses the results of In Extremis Laste
📍ASPECTS 0-2 vs 3-5- no heterogeneity of treatment effect
📍size of core is NOT a treatment effect modifier
📍don’t exclude patients from treatment based on core size
Debates: @CheesemakerMD argues against MT in LVO with low NIHSS
✅higher rates of lysis pre MY (?40%)
✅occlusions by definition less eloquent
🛑ICAD much more frequent here, up to 1/3rd = more aggressive maneuvers
🛑3-4x risk of sICH
@svinsociety @YoungNIR @rwregen @SNISinfo
@FishingNeurons argues for treating select low NIHSS
✅guidelines say it’s reasonable
✅HEADS-UP maneuver helps select hi risk
✅discussion is disabling vs not, NIHSS not as relevant

Point: @DanielVelaMD discussing how out of date and simplistic NASCET is on modern treatment paradigms for asymptomatic carotid stenosis.
- lessons in stenting mean probable safer treatments
- other high risk features (inteaplaque hemorrhage/ulceration) ignored
Counterpoint: @hariskamalmd advocates for medical management of asymptomatic carotid stenosis.
- current risk of asymptomatic stenosis can be <1%/yr
- stenosis is dynamic and can even reduce with resolving thrombus or statin use
- need data

In today’s #GrandRounds, @UHhospitals' Amrou Sarraj, MD (@amrsarrajMD), discussed levels of evidence for thrombectomy (EVT) and the results of the @SELECT2Trial and how EVT of strokes with a large ischemic core is safe and efficacious.

Honored to have @amrsarrajMD guide use through the new era of thrombectomy. Reignites our commitment to #StrikeOutStroke on the eve of #WorldStrokeDay @svinsociety @SNISinfo @WashUNeurology @WashUNeurosurg
It was my pleasure to deliver the key note address @WashUNeurology annual brain attack symposium and grand rounds for the department of Neurology. Thank you @NeuroIntervener for the wonderful hospitality. @JOsbunMDxCV @JinMooLee1

As Neuro Interventionalists, we face the responsibility of handling a significant number of on-call duties, including more frequent calls to treat highly critical conditions.
#wellnessWednesday Sleep deprivation is serious. Sleep deprivation & call fatigue resulted in 39% falling asleep at the wheel at least once 😴,23% experiencing motor vehicle crashes/near crashes 😱,& 34% reporting medical errors‼️Abdalla et. al, 2018. Data included SVIN members.

4th trial confirms thrombectomy benefit for large core/low aspects #stroke. Please treat these patients - to not only benefit those patients, but increase treatment speed for ALL patients by reducing decision delay. @SNISinfo @StrokeAHA_ASA - data presented at @esoc2023
