The Relationship

Abstract Background: Endovascular treatment (EVT) is advocated for acute ischemic stroke with large-vessel occlusion (LVO), but perioperative periods are challenging.This study investigated the relationship between post-EVT short-term blood pressure variability (BPV) and early outcomes in LVO patients. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 72 LVO patients undergoing EVT between June 2015 and June 2018. Hourly systolic and diastolic blood pressures (SBP and DBP, respectively) were recorded in the first 24 hours post-EVT. BPV were evaluated as standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV), and successive variation (SV) separately for SBP and DBP. Patients were categorized into favorable (mRS 0-2) and unfavorable (mRS 3-6) outcome groups based on 3-month modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores. Results: For 58.3% patients with favorable outcomes, median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale and Alberta Stroke Program Early CT scores on admission were 14 and 8, respectively. The maximum SBP ([154.3±16.8] vs. [163.5±15.6], P=0.02), systolic CV ([8. 8%±2.0%] vs. [11.0%±1.8%], P<0.001), SV ([11.4±2.3] vs. [14.6±2.0], P<0.001), and SD ([10.5±2.4] vs. [13.8±3.9], P<0.001) were lower in patients with favorable outcomes. On multivariable logistic regression analysis, systolic SV (OR: 4.273, 95% CI: 1.030 to 17.727, P=0.045) independently predicted unfavorable prognosis (area under the curve = 0.868 [95% CI: 0.781 to 0.955, P<0.001]. Sensitivity and specificity were 93.3% and 73.8%, respectively, showing excellent value for 3-month-poor-outcome predictions. Conclusions: Decreased maximum SBP and systolic CV, SV, and SD following intra-arterial therapies result in favorable 3-month outcomes. Systolic SV may be a novel predictor of functional prognosis in LVO patients.

This study investigated the relationship between post-EVT short-term blood pressure variability (BPV) and early outcomes in LVO patients. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 72 LVO patients undergoing EVT between June 2015 and June 2018. Hourly systolic and diastolic blood pressures (SBP and DBP, respectively) were recorded in the first 24 h post-EVT.

The optimal range of blood pressure variability (BPV) for acute stroke patients with large-vessel occlusion (LVO) remains unclear. This study investigated the association between BPV from admission through the first 24 h after intra-arterial thrombectomy (IAT) and short-term outcome in LVO patients. We retrospectively analyzed 257 consecutive patients with LVO stroke who were treated with IAT. BP values were recorded at 2-h intervals from admission through the first 24 h after IAT. BPV, as reflected by pulse pressure variability (PPV), was determined based on standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV), successive variation (SV), and the difference between maximum and minimum blood pressure (ΔBP; systolic BP minus diastolic BP). The association between BPV and clinical outcome (Modified Rankin Scale score at 90 days) was analyzed by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Of the 257 included patients, 70 had a good outcome at 3 months. PPV from admission through the first 24 h after IAT was independently associated in a graded manner with poor outcome [multivariable-adjusted odds ratios (95% confidence interval) for the highest of PPV were 43.0 (8.7–212.8) for SD, 40.3 (9.8–165.0) for CV, 55.0 (11.2–271.2) for SV, and 40.1 (8.0–201.9) for ΔBP]. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (95% confidence interval) of the PPV parameters were 0.924 (0.882–0.965) for SD, 0.886 (0.835–0.938) for CV, 0.932 (0.891–0.973) for SV, and 0.892 (0.845–0.939) for ΔBP, and the Youden index values were 0.740, 0.633, 0.759, and 0.756, respectively. In summary, BPV from admission through the first 24 h after IAT was independently associated with poor outcome at 3 months in patients with LVO, with greater variability corresponding to a stronger association. Thus, PPV may be a clinically useful predictor of functional prognosis in LVO patients treated with IAT.

Introduction: The Emergency Medical Stroke Assessment (EMSA) is a six point stroke severity scale with one point each for gaze preference, facial droop, arm drift, leg drift, abnormal naming, and abnormal repetition that was developed to help emergency medical services (EMS) providers identify acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO). We hypothesized that the EMSA would detect left hemisphere LVO with a higher sensitivity than right hemisphere LVO. Methods: We trained 24 trauma system-based emergency communication center (ECC) paramedics in the EMSA. ECC-guided EMS in performance of the EMSA on patients with suspected stroke. We compared the sensitivity, specificity, area under the curve (AUC), and 95% confidence interval (CI) of ECC-guided prehospital EMSA for right versus left hemisphere ICA or M1 occlusion. Results: We enrolled 569 patients from September 2016 through February 2018, out of which 236 had a discharge diagnosis of stroke and 173 had a diagnosis of AIS. We excluded patients with bilateral (n=21) and brainstem (n=21) AIS. There were 64 patients with left hemisphere AIS including 19 with LVO. There were 67 patients with right hemisphere AIS including 22 with LVO. A score of ≥ 4 points yielded a sensitivity of 84.2 (95% CI = 60.4-96.6) and specificity of 66.7 (51.1-80.0) for left hemisphere LVO compared to a sensitivity of 68.2 (45.1-86.1) and specificity of 73.9 (58.9-85.7) for right hemisphere LVO. For predicting a left hemisphere LVO, the AUC was 0.77 (0.65-0.90) compared to 0.66 (0.50-0.82) for right-sided LVO. Assigning 2 points for abnormal gaze yielded an AUC of 0.78 (0.66-0.91) versus 0.67 (0.52-0.83) for left and right hemisphere LVO, respectively. Conclusions: The EMSA, like the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) upon which it is based, is more sensitive to left compared to right hemisphere LVO. More heavily weighting abnormal gaze did not improve the sensitivity of the EMSA for right hemisphere LVO. There is no comparable data on the right versus left hemisphere performance of other prehospital scales. There is a need to develop sensitive tests of right hemisphere dysfunction that are suitable for use in the field.

Introduction: In patients with large vessel occlusion presenting with acute ischemic stroke, cerebral perfusion is a major determinant of stroke severity. However, limited data exists to guide hemodynamic management of these patients early after presentation. In this study, we aim to evaluate the effect of blood pressure reductions during the hyper-acute period on infarct size. Methods: From a clinical stroke registry at a single comprehensive stroke center, we reviewed patients with middle cerebral artery (M1) or internal carotid artery occlusion who underwent hyperacute magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for endovascular treatment decision in 2018. Infarct volume was determined by area of reduced apparent diffusion coefficient using RAPID software. Collateral circulation was scored based on baseline CT angiogram (good collaterals constituted >50% filling, poor collaterals ≤50% filling). Average mean arterial pressure (MAP) readings from the first hour of presentation were compared to average MAP readings from the hour prior to magnetic resonance imaging. For the purposes of our study, a drop of > 20% in the average MAP was regarded as a significant decrease. We hypothesized that both significant drop in MAP and the presence of good collateral circulation were independent predictors of infarct volume expressed as a logarithmic value in multivariable regression model. Results: Of the 35 patients (mean age 67, mean NIHSS 16) meeting inclusion criteria, 11% of patients experienced an early significant drop in MAP prior to time of MRI. Among patients with a significant drop in MAP, the average decrease was 35 mm Hg ±3.3 among those with significant drop from a baseline mean MAP of 125 mm Hg. In the multivariable analysis adjusting for collateral status, a significant drop in average MAP was independently associated with an increase in infarct volume (β = -0.727, p=0.0306). Collateral status also independently predicted infarct size (β=0.775, p=0.0007). Conclusion: Among ischemic stroke patients with large vessel occlusion, a >20% drop in MAP during the hyper-acute period is associated with larger infarct volumes. Further studies are needed to optimize early blood pressure management in these patients.
