Is Unexplained Early Neurological Deterioration After Intravenous Thrombolysis Associated With Thrombus Extension? [Clinical Sciences]
Conclusions—In this study, unexplained END occurring after thrombolysis was independently associated with susceptibility vessel sign extension, suggesting in situ thrombus extension or re-embolization. These findings strengthen the need to further investigate early post-thrombolysis administration of antithrombotics to reduce the risk of this ominous clinical event.
