Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Technical Device Success by as Assessed by the Percentage of Participants Which Established at Least TIMI 2 Flow Upon Deployment of the System Across the Occlusion and Within 30 Minutes of Placing the Guide Catheter.

    TIMI Flow is a perfusion scoring system from 0-3 referring to levels of blood flow assessed during reperfusion procedures: TIMI 0 flow (no perfusion) TIMI 1 flow (penetration without perfusion) TIMI 2 flow (partial reperfusion) TIMI 3 flow (complete perfusion) is normal flow

    Immediately postprocedure

  • Procedural Success as Determined by the Overal Percentage of Patients Who Achieve TIMI Grade 2/3 Flow, With or Without the Use of Adjuvant Therapy, in All Treatable Vessels as Confirmed by the Final Post Treatment Angiogram.

    TIMI Flow is a scoring system from 0-3 referring to levels of blood flow assessed during percutaneous coronary angioplasty: TIMI 0 flow (no perfusion) TIMI 1 flow (penetration without perfusion) TIMI 2 flow (partial reperfusion) TIMI 3 flow (complete perfusion) is normal flow

    Immediately postprocedure

  • Clinical Success

    Clinical Success as determined by achievment of a Modified Rankin Scale score of 0-2 at 90 days postprocedure. The modified Rankin Scale is a measure of a patient's level of functional independence with 0=normal and 6-death. Patients with a score of 0-2 are considered functionally independent.

    90 days postprocedure

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Device-related Serious Adverse Events

    Treatment to 90 days postprocedure

  • Patients must meet at least one of the following criteria:
  • Eligible for Intravenous rt-PA
  • Eligible for Intra-arterial rt-PA - IA rt-PA initiated within 6 hours of symptom onset
  • Patient presents within 6 hours of symptom onset

You may not qualify if:

  • Pregnancy
  • Glucose \<50mg/dL

  • Patient has baseline platelets \< 30,000
  • Evidence of rapidly improving neurological signs of stroke at time of enrollment
  • Coma

  • Patient's angiogram shows an arterial stenosis \>50% proximal to the embolus.
  • Patient's anticipated life expectancy is less than 3 months
  • Participation in another clinical investigation that could confound the evaluation of the study device
