Vertebrobasilar artery cooling infusion in acute ischemic stroke for posterior circulation following thrombectomy: Rationale, design and protocol for a prospective randomized controlled trial

BackgroundAlthough endovascular mechanical thrombectomy demonstrates clinical efficacy in posterior circulation acute ischemic stroke (AIS), only one third of these patients attain functional independence with a third of patients’ expiring despite vascular recanalization. Neuroprotection strategies,...
