Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Modified Rankin Scale score

    A measurement of functional independence following ischemic stroke

    3 months

  • Complication rate

    The rate and type of complications occuring postoperatively

    within one week postoperatively

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score

    at 24 hours postoperatively

Study Arms (2)

Direct mechanical thrombectomy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Direct mechanical thrombectomy performed within 4.5 of stroke onset without giving intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator.

Device: Trevo and or Merci devices for stent retreivalDevice: Penumbra system for stent aspiration

Bridging therapy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Mechanical thrombectomy performed within 4.5 of stroke onset after giving intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator at a dose of 0.9 mg/Kg

Device: Trevo and or Merci devices for stent retreivalDevice: Penumbra system for stent aspirationDrug: recombinant tissue plasminogen activator

Interventions

FDA approved devices for stent retrieval during mechanical thrombectomy
