- CT Perfusion Does Not Modify the Effect of Reperfusion in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke Undergoing Endovascular Treatment in the ESCAPE-NA1 Trial
Various CTP metrics are used as biomarkers of ischemia and clinical outcomes in some patients undergoing EVT. This post hoc analysis of the Safety and Efficacy of Nerinetide in Subjects Undergoing Endovascular Thrombectomy for Stroke (ESCAPE-NA1) trial shows that patients having undergone EVT with baseline small CTP lesion volumes have a better clinical outcome compared with those with larger CTP lesions. However, CTP was not able to elucidate why some patients have poor outcomes despite near-complete recanalization.
