Acute Kidney Injury in Acute Stroke. A preliminary study in Hispanic population (P5.041)
Conclusions:The prevalence of AKI after acute stroke in our population is higher than currently reported.Arterial hypertension was observed as a main risk factor. Further analysis with a higher number of patients is needed to confirm this observation and determine its real impact in Hispanic stroke patients.Disclosure: Dr. Olguín-Ramírez has nothing to disclose.

International Normalized Ratio (INR) Reversal in Oral Anticoagulant-Associated Intracerebral Hemorrhage (P5.049)
Conclusions:Patients with OAC-associated ICH treated with FFP monotherapy are less likely to have a normalized INR at 12h. The use of PCC/rFVIIa shortens time correction to INR to <1.4 but, under the study conditions, this doesn’t improve outcome.Study Supported by: The Ethnic/Racial Variations of Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ERICH) study was funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS: U-01-NS069763).Disclosure: Dr. Testai has nothing to disclose.

Insular DWI Hyperintensities in Subdural Hematoma: A case series and pathophysiologic review (P5.056)
Conclusions:Proposed mechanisms for SDH-associated insular infarction include venous hypertension and traumatic arterial vasospasm. SDH-associated insular infarction is a marker of greater disease severity. Advanced imaging findings may be an important biomarker of disease severity and may influence complex management decisions. Future prospective studies are necessary to determine the incidence of SDH-associated infarction, putative stroke mechanisms, and resulting patient outcomes.Disclosure: Dr. Sacchetti has nothing to disclose.

Intravenous Tissue Plasminogen Activator for Patients with Mild or Rapidly Improving Ischemic Strokes and Large Vessel Occlusions: Examining In-hospital Outcomes (P4.277)
Conclusions:Our study suggests that tPA in mild LVO patients does not introduce additional risk in terms of sICH, in-hospital mortality, change in NIHSS, or discharge mRS. Future investigations should examine 90-day mRS scores in order to better understand long-term functional outcomes after treatment.Disclosure: Dr. Wagner has received personal compensation for activities with Genentech as a speaker.

Probable rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder and risk of stroke: a prospective study (P4.302)
Conclusions:Presence of pRBD was associated with a higher risk of developing stroke, including both ischemic and hemorrhagic types. Future studies with clinically confirmed RBD and a longer follow-up would be appropriate to further investigate this association.Study Supported by: The National Institute of Neurological Disorders And Stroke at the National Institutes of Health (NINDS 5R21NS087235-02 to X.G.)Disclosure: Dr. Ma has nothing to disclose.

Outcomes after Endovascular Therapy in a Population with Mild Acute Ischemic Stroke and Large Vessel Occlusion: Does Treatment Help? (P5.254)
Conclusions:It’s unclear whether IAT is beneficial in mild AIS and LVO. Interventional, multi-center studies with larger sample sizes are needed to definitively determine the efficacy of IAT.

Outcomes after Endovascular Therapy in a Population with Mild Acute Ischemic Stroke: A 6.5 Year Observational Cohort Study at a High-Volume Comprehensive Stroke Center (P5.255)
Conclusions:These data highlight the safety of IAT in patients with mAIS, mirroring the results seen in recent large RCTs in the non-mAIS population. Patients in our study had a zero risk of sICH, and a mortality rate similar to literature examining IV-tPA administration in patients with mAIS. Furthermore, a large proportion of patients showed a clinically meaningful improvement in NIHSS, or were discharged with a favorable mRS.Disclosure: Dr. Fanale has nothing to disclose.
