Abstract Number ‐ 241: Simultaneous IV tPA During Thrombectomy Reduces Post‐Procedure Hypoperfusion Volumes in Anterior LVO Patients
Introduction Simultaneous tPA administration during mechanical thrombectomy may induce synergistic benefits (1). We aimed to characterize the hypoperfusion status after thrombectomy according to the timing of tPA administration and the degree of final recanalization. Methods We studied consecutive a...

| description | Introduction Simultaneous tPA administration during mechanical thrombectomy may induce synergistic benefits (1). We aimed to characterize the hypoperfusion status after thrombectomy according to the timing of tPA administration and the degree of final recanalization. Methods We studied consecutive anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke patients treated with mechanical thrombectomy who received a CT perfusion (CTP) immediately after endovascular procedure (2). Patients were divided in three groups according to: no iv tPA treatment (non‐tPA), tPA administration before 120 minutes (tPA>120) or iv tPA administration within 120 min (tPA< 120) of groin puncture. The extend of post‐procedure hypoperfusion (volume Tmax>6s) and relative hypoperfusion reduction compared with admission CTP (volume post‐procedure – admission Tmax>6s/admission Tmax>6s) according to final TICI scores were compared between the three study groups. Results One hundred and sixty‐nine patients were included in the study, mean age 72 years and median baseline NIHSS of 15. Thirty (17.8%) patients received iv tPA more than 2h before groin puncture (tPA>120), 32(18.9%) within 2h of the puncture (tPA < 120) and 107(63.3%) were non‐tPA. No difference on stroke severity, pre‐procedure hypoperfusion volume or occlusion location before thrombectomy were detected between groups. The rate of complete recanalization (TICI 3, 38.5%) was also similar in the 3 study groups (p = 0.12). Overall, the post‐procedure hypoperfusion volume was significantly lower in the tPA< 120 group (19.9±4.6cc vs 35.0±5.5, p = 0.04), and the relative hypoperfusion reduction was higher in tPA< 120 (0.86 vs 0.66, p = 0.05) as compared to non‐tPA. No significant differences were detected between non‐tPA and tPA>120 groups. For each final TICI score the post‐procedure hypoperfusion tended to be lower in the tPA< 120‐group, with a stronger reduction in patients with lower degree of recanalization (Figure). Conclusions A reduction of post‐thrombectomy hypoperfusion volumes was detected in patients treated with iv tPA during or shortly before thrombectomy, which could be a surrogate marker of the beneficial effect of tPA on the microcirculation. The specific reperfusion synergistic effect of tPA and mechanical thrombectomy beyond LVO recanalization warrants future studies. |
