RESUMO

Introduction: Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) increases the chance of good functional outcome after ischemic stroke caused by a large vessel occlusion, but the risk of death in the first 90 days is still considerable. We assessed the causes, timing and risk factors of death after EVT to aid future studies aiming to reduce mortality. Patients and methods: We used data from the MR CLEAN Registry, a prospective, multicenter, observational cohort study of patients treated with EVT in the Netherlands between March 2014, and November 2017. We assessed causes and timing of death and risk factors for death in the first 90 days after treatment. Causes and timing of death were determined by reviewing serious adverse event forms, discharge letters, or other written clinical information. Risk factors for death were determined with multivariable logistic regression. Results: Of 3180 patients treated with EVT, 863 (27.1%) died in the first 90 days. The most common causes of death were pneumonia (215 patients, 26.2%), intracranial hemorrhage (142 patients, 17.3%), withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment because of the initial stroke (110 patients, 13.4%) and space-occupying edema (101 patients, 12.3%). In total, 448 patients (52% of all deaths) died in the first week, with intracranial hemorrhage as most frequent cause. The strongest risk factors for death were hyperglycemia and functional dependency before the stroke and severe neurological deficit at 24-48 h after treatment. Discussion and conclusion: When EVT fails to decrease the initial neurological deficit, strategies to prevent complications like pneumonia and intracranial hemorrhage after EVT could improve survival, as these are often the cause of death.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The effects of thrombus imaging characteristics on procedural and clinical outcomes after ischemic stroke are increasingly being studied. These thrombus characteristics - for eg, size, location, and density - are commonly analyzed as separate entities. However, it is known that some of these thrombus characteristics are strongly related. Multicollinearity can lead to unreliable prediction models. We aimed to determine the distribution, correlation and clustering of thrombus imaging characteristics based on a large dataset of anterior-circulation acute ischemic stroke patients. METHODS: We measured thrombus imaging characteristics in the MR CLEAN Registry dataset, which included occlusion location, distance from the intracranial carotid artery to the thrombus (DT), thrombus length, density, perviousness, and clot burden score (CBS). We assessed intercorrelations with Spearman's coefficient (ρ) and grouped thrombi based on 1) occlusion location and 2) thrombus length, density and perviousness using unsupervised clustering. RESULTS: We included 934 patients, of which 22% had an internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion, 61% M1, 16% M2, and 1% another occlusion location. All thrombus characteristics were significantly correlated. Higher CBS was strongly correlated with longer DT (ρ=0.67, p<0.01), and moderately correlated with shorter thrombus length (ρ=-0.41, p<0.01). In more proximal occlusion locations, thrombi were significantly longer, denser, and less pervious. Unsupervised clustering analysis resulted in four thrombus groups; however, the cohesion within and distinction between the groups were weak. CONCLUSIONS: Thrombus imaging characteristics are significantly intercorrelated - strong correlations should be considered in future predictive modeling studies. Clustering analysis showed there are no distinct thrombus archetypes - novel treatments should consider this thrombus variability.
