A score based on age and DWI volume predicts poor outcome following endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke
A score based on age and DWI volume predicts poor outcome following endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF STROKE Liggins, J. T., Yoo, A. J., Mishra, N. K., Wheeler, H. M., Straka, M., Leslie-Mazwi, T. M., Chaudhry, Z. A., Kemp, S., Mlynash, M., Bammer, R., Albers, G. W., Lansberg, M. G. 2015; 10 (5): 705-709Abstract
The Houston Intra-Arterial Therapy score predicts poor functional outcome following endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke based on clinical variables. The present study sought to (a) create a predictive scoring system that included a neuroimaging variable and (b) determine if the scoring systems predict the clinical response to reperfusion.Separate datasets were used to derive (n?=?110 from the Diffusion and Perfusion Imaging Evaluation for Understanding Stroke Evolution 2 study) and validate (n?=?125 from Massachusetts General Hospital) scoring systems that predict poor functional outcome, defined as a modified Rankin Scale score of 4-6 at 90 days.Age (P??0·5).The Stanford Age and Diffusion-Weighted Imaging and Houston Intra-Arterial Therapy scores can be used to predict poor functional outcome following endovascular therapy with good accuracy. However, these scores do not predict the clinical response to reperfusion. This limits their utility as tools to select patients for acute stroke interventions.
