Management of Tandem Occlusion Stroke with Endovascular Therapy (P01.230)
CONCLUSIONS: In cases of tandem occlusions of ICA and MCA, multimodal therapy consistent of intravenous thrombolysis and/or extracranial ICA stenting and intracranial thrombectomy to achieve recanalization may be a safe and efficacious therapeutic option for recanalization. Further prospective studies are warranted.Disclosure: Dr. Guerrero has nothing to disclose. Dr. Dababneh has nothing to disclose.

The Cost Per Stroke Prevented (CPSP) from Symptomatic Carotid Artery Stenosis in Ontario, Canada (S51.006)
CONCLUSIONS: The CPSP if done within the recommended time-frame for our virtual population would be $25,326. Recent data from Ontario demonstrates that between 8-36% of carotid artery revascularizations occur within the suggested timeframe. Most carotid artery revascularizations in Ontario have a CPSP of $75,978 (median time for revascularization is between 1-3 months). This represents a clear inefficiency in the system. Further research and government wide initiatives could be aimed at increasing the awareness of the CPSP in order to facilitate policy makers and other stakeholders to develop pathways to ensure prompt trea...

Complication Rates and Center Enrollment Volume in the Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy Versus Stenting Trial Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Complication rates were low in CREST and were not associated with center enrollment volume. The data are consistent with the value of rigorous training and credentialing in trials evaluating endovascular devices and surgical procedures.

Picking the Good Apples: Statistics Versus Good Judgment in Choosing Stent Operators for a Multicenter Clinical Trial Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— The low periprocedural event rates in the trial suggest success in separating skillful operators from less skillful. However, it seems unlikely that statistical assessment of event rates in the lead-in contributed to successful selection, but rather successful selection was more likely because of peer review of subjective and other factors including patient volume and technical approaches.

Early Outcomes After Carotid Artery Stenting Compared With Endarterectomy for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— For asymptomatic carotid stenosis, CAS is associated with a substantially higher risk of postoperative stroke or in-hospital death than CEA even after adjustment for baseline differences in hospital and patient characteristics.

Spontaneous Solitaire™ AB Thrombectomy Stent Detachment During Stroke Treatment
Abstract Spontaneous Solitaire™ stent retriever detachment is a rarely defined entity seen during stroke treatment, which can result in a disastrous clinical outcome if it cannot be solved within a critical stroke treatment time window. Two solutions to this problem are presented in the literature. The first is to leave the stent in place and apply angioplasty to the detached stent, while the second involves surgically removing the stent from the location at which it detached. Here, we present a case of inadvertent stent detachment during stroke treatment for a middle cerebral artery M1 occlusion resulting in p...

Endovascular management and outcome of acute middle cerebral artery stroke in the setting of spontaneous carotid dissection (P1.012)
Conclusion: This study provides additional evidence that endovascular management of carotid artery dissection in acute middle cerebral artery is effective and safe to maintain distal revascularization. Revascularization can be achieved with a combination of stenting, large catheter mediated angioplasty and thrombectomy. Further studies are warranted to investigate the role of endovascular recanalization for this stroke subtypeDisclosure: Dr. Gulati has nothing to disclose. Dr. Aghaebrahim has nothing to disclose.

Demographic and Technical Risk Factors of 30-Day Stroke, Myocardial Infarction, and/or Death in Standard- and High-Risk Patients Who Underwent Carotid Angioplasty and Stenting

P-013 initial experience with the ace and ace64 cerebral reperfusion catheters in the endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke
ConclusionIn our initial experience, the ACE/ACE64 reperfusion catheters provide a safe and effective tool for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke using direct aspiration, in which we were able to recanalize (TICI 2B/3) 96.4% of cases, achieving good clinical results.DisclosuresP.

Temporal Changes in Periprocedural Events in the Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy Versus Stenting Trial Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— The hypothesized temporal reduction of stroke+death events for carotid stenting–treated patients was not observed. Further adjustment for changes in patient characteristics between periods, including the addition of asymptomatic patients and a >50% decrease in proportion of octogenarians enrolled, resulted in practically identical rates.

Meta-Analysis Shows Medtronic's Solitaire™ Stent Retriever Device Improves Functional Outcomes for Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients; Reduced Mortality in Patients 80+
A meta-analysis published online today in Stroke and presented at the International Stroke Conference (ISC) in Los Angeles, Calif., found that the addition of Medtronic plc's (NYSE: MDT) Solitaire™ stent retriever to current pharmaceutical treatment (IV-tPA) significantly improves functional outcomes in patients suffering stroke. The analysis also showed a significant reduction (20% vs. 40%, adjusted OR 3.7(1.3-10.6), p=0.01) in mortality for patients over the age of 80.

Rates of In-Hospital Procedures and Outcomes among Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Patients Admitted to Joint Commission Primary Stroke Centers in United States (P1.253)
Conclusions: Compared with non PSCs admissions, patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage admitted to PSCs are more likely to receive endovascular treatment and had higher odds of being discharged to home. Such observations support the notion that PSC certification may favorably impact outcomes in all stroke subtypes.Disclosure: Dr. Saeed has nothing to disclose. Dr. Chaudhry has nothing to disclose.
