E-129 nihss assessment during the stroke hospitalization is a significant predictor of 90-day functional outcome in the natural history of acute ischemic stroke from large vessel occlusion

ConclusionNIHSS at 24 h and at 7 days or discharge had a strong correlation with 90-day functional outcome. This study provides invaluable information for stroke physicians to be able to prognosticate when they talk to patients and family members at the end of hospitalization. In addition, this landmark study will help recruitment and completion of future medical device trials on stroke patients much faster and cost-effectively, thereby bringing down healthcare costs and facilitating newer medical devices for stroke treatment to become available to patients sooner.Abstract E-129 Table 1Correlation between ASPECTS and NIHSS Baseline ASPECTS NIHSS 24 hrs mean ± SD (N) NIHSS 24 hrs mean change (N) (baseline-24 hrs) NIHSS 7 days mean ± SD (N) NIHSS 7 days mean change (N) (baseline-7days) ASPECTS 8–1014.9 ± 7.8 (45)3.3 ± 6.6 (45)17.4 ± 12.7 (45)0.8 ± 11.1 (45)ASPECTS 5–719.8 ± 7.0 (28)0.9 ± 5.4 (28)19.5 ± 10.6 (29)0.9 ± 8.9 (29)ASPECTS 0–422.5 ± 7.7 (17)-2.5 ± 7.9 (17)25.4 ± 10.7 (18)-5.5 ± 12.2 (18)Spearman's rank Correlation (r)-0.330.24-0.220.16P value (calculated using Spearman's rank correlation)0.00120.02160.02790.1143DisclosuresV.
