Recently, two multicenter randomized controlled trials (RCT) failed to show a significantly beneficial effect of endovascular treatment (EVT) in patients with acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO). However, both trials suffered from equipoise issues which may have hindered the validity of the trial results. Therefore, additional RCT studies are needed to explore the potential benefit of EVT in patients presenting with BAO.
ATTENTION is an investigator-initiated, multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial with open-label treatment and blinded outcome assessment (PROBE) of EVT versus best medical management (BMM). The primary effect parameter is a modified Rankin Score of 0-3 at day 90.
ATTENTION will provide evidence for the efficacy and safety of EVT in stroke patients within 12 h after BAO.

最近,两项多中心随机对照试验(RCT)未能显示血管内治疗(EVT)对急性基底动脉闭塞(BAO)患者有显著的益处。然而,这两项试验都存在均衡问题,这可能影响了试验结果的有效性。因此,需要进行更多的 RCT 研究来探索 EVT 在 BAO 患者中的潜在益处。
ATTENTION 是一项由研究者发起的、多中心、前瞻性、随机、对照的临床试验,采用开放标签治疗和盲法结局评估(PROBE),比较 EVT 与最佳药物治疗(BMM)。主要的疗效参数是 90 天时改良 Rankin 评分 0-3 分。
ATTENTION 将为 BAO 后 12 小时内的卒中患者 EVT 的疗效和安全性提供证据。
