Value of craniocerebral CT angiography in evaluating prognosis in patients with acute cerebral infarction / 临床神经病学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the value of craniocerebral CT angiography(CTA) to evaluate the prognosis in patients with acute cerebral infarction(ACI).Methods Craniocerebral CTA were performed in 70 patients with ACI at ≤6 h after onset.National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS) score and modeled Rank Scale(mRS) score were investigated at admission,discharge.Results There were 38 patients with visible occlusion on CTA and 32 patients with normal CTA.The patients with vessel occlusion on CTA had significantly worse discharge scores of NIHSS(P0.05).But for patients with vessel occlusion,the ratio of good prognosis in patients received thrombolytic treatment was higher than that of excluded thrombolysis(58.8% vs 31.8%;P
