Groundbreaking results concerning ischemic stroke (IS) hyperacute treatment worldwide were published in 2014 and 2015. We aimed to compare functional status after 3 months in patients treated with intra-arterial thrombectomy (IAT) and those treated with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) alone in Joinville, Brazil. From the Joinville Stroke Registry, we extracted and compared all consecutive IVT patients treated with r-tPA within 4.5 h in the period 2009-2011 versus all consecutive IAT treated within 6 h with the Solitaire FR device plus IVT in the period 2012-2014. We registered 82 patients in the IVT group and 31 patients in the IAT group. At hospital admission, patients in the IAT group were significantly younger ( < 0.001), had a higher educational level ( = 0.001), had a slightly higher prevalence of atrial fibrillation ( = 0.057) and had more severe strokes measured by the NIH stroke scale ( = 0.011). After 90 days, 45% of patients in the IAT group and 27% in the IVT group were independent (0-1 points) according to the modified Rankin scale (adjusted odds ratio: 4.53; 95% CI: 1.22 to 16.75). Symptomatic hemorrhage was diagnosed in 10% of patients in both groups ( = 1.0). The 90-day case-fatality was 39% (32/82) in the IVT group and 26% (8/31) in the IAT group ( = 0.27). In this small cohort, a greater rate of functional independence was achieved in patients treated with IAT plus IVT, compared with patients treated with IVT lysis alone. Our "real-world" findings are consistent with results of controlled, randomized clinical trials.
2014年和2015年公布了全球范围内关于缺血性中风(IS)超急性期治疗的突破性成果。我们旨在比较巴西茹安维尔接受动脉内血栓切除术(IAT)治疗的患者与仅接受静脉溶栓(IVT)治疗的患者3个月后的功能状态。从茹安维尔中风登记处,我们提取并比较了2009 - 2011年期间在4.5小时内接受r - tPA治疗的所有连续IVT患者,与2012 - 2014年期间在6小时内接受Solitaire FR装置加IVT治疗的所有连续IAT患者。我们在IVT组登记了82例患者,在IAT组登记了31例患者。入院时,IAT组患者明显更年轻(<0.001),教育水平更高(=0.001),房颤患病率略高(=0.057),且根据美国国立卫生研究院中风量表测量的中风更严重(=0.011)。90天后,根据改良Rankin量表,IAT组45%的患者和IVT组27%的患者为独立状态(0 - 1分)(调整后的优势比:4.53;95%置信区间:1.22至16.75)。两组均有10%的患者被诊断为有症状性出血(=1.0)。IVT组90天病死率为39%(32/82),IAT组为26%(8/31)(=0.27)。在这个小队列中,与仅接受IVT溶栓治疗的患者相比,接受IAT加IVT治疗的患者实现功能独立的比例更高。我们的“真实世界”研究结果与对照随机临床试验的结果一致。
