What this trial studies

This observational study aims to create a clinical and advanced imaging database for acute ischemic stroke patients who have undergone mechanical thrombectomy due to large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation within 24 hours of stroke onset. It will involve a multi-center, prospective registry cohort study across various stroke centers in China, enrolling approximately 1600 patients. The study will also analyze predictors and mechanisms of futile recanalization after the procedure, utilizing both prospective and retrospective data.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults over 18 years with confirmed large vessel occlusion and who have undergone necessary imaging within the specified time frame.

Not a fit: Patients with a history of certain medical conditions or those unable to undergo imaging or receive contrast agents may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could improve understanding of treatment outcomes and optimize mechanical thrombectomy protocols for stroke patients.

How similar studies have performed: Previous studies like DAWN and DEFUSE 3 have shown success in extending the time window for mechanical thrombectomy, but this study aims to provide real-world evidence within that timeframe.
