Utilization and Outcomes of Acute Revascularization Treatment in Ischemic Stroke Patients with SARS-CoV-2 Infection
Our understanding of outcomes in acute ischemic stroke patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection following acute revascularization treatments (as intravenous thrombolysis and/or thrombectomy) is based on small case series.1-3. An international panel4 cautioned regarding the potential for high rate of death or disability and post thrombolytic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)s in acute ischemic stroke patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection due to elevated concentrations of inflammation and hypercoagulability markers such as leukocytosis, and C reactive protein and D dimers and multisystem dysfunction.
