Abstract BACKGROUND A better understanding of differences in outcomes of mechanical thrombectomy performed within and outside clinical trials will assist in optimal implementation of the procedure for acute ischemic stroke patients in general practice. OBJECTIVE To identify differences in demographic and clinical characteristics and outcomes related to mechanical thrombectomy in patients treated within clinical trials and those treated outside clinical trials in a large national cohort. METHODS  We compared the patient characteristics and associated in-hospital outcomes of mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke patients performed within and outside clinical trials using the Nationwide Inpatient Sample from 2013 to 2015. We analyzed in-hospital mortality (primary outcome) and moderate to severe disability (secondary outcome) based on discharge disposition after adjusting for potential confounders. RESULTS Of 23 375 patients who underwent mechanical thrombectomy, 430 (1.8%) underwent the procedure as part of a clinical trial. After adjusting for age, gender, and the teaching status of the hospital, patients treated within a clinical trial had lower rates of in-hospital mortality (odds ratio [OR] 0.14; 95% CI .03 to .71; P < .001). Among patients discharged alive, the rate of moderate to severe disability (OR .43; 95% CI .26 to .71; P < .001) was lower among those patients treated within a clinical trial. There was no difference in odds of post-thrombectomy intracerebral or subarachnoid hemorrhage between the two groups. CONCLUSION Mechanical thrombectomy performed as part of clinical trials was associated with lower rates of in-hospital mortality and lower rates of moderate to severe disability compared with those performed outside clinical trials.

Introduction: Several studies have shown improved outcomes in ischemic stroke patients treated with mechanical thrombectomy in clinical trials after introduction of stent retrievers. The outcomes of patients undergoing endovascular treatment in general practice are expected to improve. We performed this analysis to evaluate trends in utilization of endovascular treatment in acute ischemic stroke and associated rates of death and disability in real world practice. Methods: We obtained data for patients admitted with primary diagnosis of ischemic stroke in United States from 2009-2016 using Nationwide Inpatient Sample. We determined the rate and pattern of utilization, and associated in-hospital outcomes of endovascular treatment among them. Outcomes were classified as minimal disability, moderate to severe disability, and death based on discharge disposition and compared between two time periods: 2009-2011 and 2013-2016 to represent pre and post stent retriever approvals in United States. Results: Of the 3,780,955 patients admitted with ischemic stroke, 244,092 (6.46%) received intravenous thrombolytic treatment, and 48,409 (1.28%) underwent endovascular treatment. There was a fourfold increase in patients who underwent endovascular treatment (0.55% of ischemic strokes in 2009 vs. 2.03% in 2016, trend p < 0.001). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, adjusted for age, gender, thrombolytic therapy, in hospital complications including secondary intracranial hemorrhages, the rate of none to minimal disability improved between the two study intervals (2009-2011 versus 2013-2016), odds ratio (OR) 1.82, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.47-2.67, p=<0.0001) and moderate to severe disability decreased (OR 0.56, 95% CI 0.45- 0.70, p= <0.0001). There was significant decrease inpatient mortality for patients treated during 2013-2016; OR 0.67, 95% CI 0.56- 0.79, p= <0.0001). Conclusion: There has been a significant increase in the proportion of acute ischemic stroke patients receiving endovascular treatment with improvement of outcomes. Our analysis support generalizability of the successful results observed in clinical trials of endovascular treatment in the post-stent retriever approval era in United States.

Background: While single center and regional estimates of thrombolytic administration using drip and ship treatment paradigm are available, patient outcomes, thrombolytic utilization, cost, and referral patterns has not been assessed in United States. Objective: To provide national estimates of patients treated with thrombolytics using drip and ship paradigm and determine the impact of drip and ship treatment on regional thrombolytic utilization, treatment cost, and referral patterns of acute stroke patients in a large cohort. Methods: We determined the proportion of patients treated with drip and ship paradigm among all acute ischemic stroke patients treated with thrombolytic treatment and obtained comparative in-hospital outcomes from the Nationwide Inpatient Survey (NIS) data files from October 2008 to December 2009. All the in-hospital outcomes were analyzed after adjusting for potential confounders using multivariate analysis. Thrombolytic utilization, hospitalization cost, and patterns of referral related to drip and ship treatment of acute stroke were estimated. Results: Of the 26,814 ischemic stroke patients who received thrombolytic treatment, 5144 (19%) were treated using drip and ship paradigm. Seventy nine percent of all the drip and ship treated patients were referred to urban teaching hospitals for further care, and 7% of them received follow up endovascular treatment at the referral facility. States with higher proportion of patients treated using the drip and ship paradigm had higher rates of thrombolytic utilization (3.1% vs. 2.4%, p<0.001). After adjusting for age, gender, presence of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, renal failure, and hospital teaching status, outcomes of patients treated with drip and ship paradigm was similar to those who received thrombolytic and stayed in the same facility: self care (odds ratio [OR], 1.055, 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.910-1.224, p=0.4779); death(OR , 0.821 95% CI, 0.619- 1.088, p=0.1688); and nursing home discharge (OR, 1.023, 95% CI, 0.880- 1.189, p=0.7659) at discharge. Drip and ship paradigm was associated with shorter hospital stay (mean [days, SE] 5.9± 0.18 vs. 7.4 ± 0.15, p<0.001), and lower cost of hospitalization (mean total charges [$, SE) 57,000 ± 3,324 vs. 83,000 ± 3,367, p<0.001). Conclusions: One out of every five patients who received thromboytic treatment in United States is currently treated using drip and ship paradigm with comparable adjusted rates of favorable outcomes. There was a higher rates of thrombolytic utilization in States where drip and ship was more commonly implemented.
