Response to a letter regarding a paper entitled, “Post-intervention TCD examination may be useful to predict outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients with successful intra-arterial intervention”
We thank Dr. Dale Ding for his thoughtful comments regarding our previous study, entitled “Post-intervention TCD examination may be useful to predict outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients with successful intra-arterial (IA) intervention” . He clearly presented the potential utility of the pulsatility index (PI) of the middle cerebral artery citing a recent study reported by Uzuner et al. . As he pointed out, our study has a limitation regarding the definition of the poor outcome. Because our study was retrospective and limited to hospitalization records, we defined poor outcomes as in-hospital death or decompressiv...

Post-intervention TCD examination may be useful to predict outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients with successful intra-arterial intervention
Conclusion: Follow-up TCD examination after IA intervention in acute stroke patients may predict poor outcome beyond angiographic residual TIMI flow.
