EP46* First pass effect and associated clot characteristics in the EXCELLENT registry - Interim analysis

ConclusionsThe high rate of ‘real-world’ FPE observed in EXCELLENT was associated with improved clinical outcomes. Clots retrieved with FPE had higher RBC and lower fibrin content compared to non FPE and to first pass mTICI <2c/3 e. These preliminary findings await confirmation from analysis of the full dataset.DisclosureEXCELLENT is sponsored by Cerenovus.
