Reanalysis of EXTEND perfusion imaging https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46485 70 ml (n = 9), and no perfusion lesion/lack of penumbral tissue (n = 20). The revised perfusion lesion volumes were significantly smaller compared to the original RAPID volumes (median 68 ml IQR 34–102 ml vs. 42 ml 16–92 ml, p = 0.036). Of the patients who met the revised mismatch criteria, 40% receiving alteplase had modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0–1 at 3-month compared to 28% with placebo (Adjusted Odds Ratio (OR) = 2.23, CI 1.08–4.58, p = 0.028). In contrast, in the original mismatch cohort, 35% receiving alteplase had mRS 0–1 at 3-month compared to 30% with placebo (adjusted OR = 1.88, p = 0.056). Conclusions: These data reinforce the benefit of alteplase in the later time window, and suggest that differences in automated perfusion imaging software outputs may be clinically relevant.]]> Wed 13 Mar 2024 07:51:52 AEDT ]]> Effect of Intravenous Tenecteplase Dose on Cerebral Reperfusion before Thrombectomy in Patients with Large Vessel Occlusion Ischemic Stroke: The EXTEND-IA TNK Part 2 Randomized Clinical Trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51682 Fri 15 Sep 2023 09:35:50 AEST ]]>
