    • Does bridging therapy in mechanical thrombectomy increase recanalization rates in ischemic stroke patients affected by acute large vessel occlusion? 

      Silva Santos, Andreia M.; Rossi, Rosanna; Pandit, Abhay; Fitzgerald, Seán; Mereuta, Oana Madalina; Douglas, Andrew; Thornton, John; Brennan, Paul; Power, Sarah; O’Hare, Alan; Rentzos, Alexandros; Ceder, Erik; Tatlisumak, Turgut; Jood, Katarina; Redfors, Petra; Nordanstig, Annika; Duffy, Sharon; Gilvarry, Michael; McCarthy, Ray; Doyle, Karen M. (SAGE Publications, 2019-05-22)
      Both intravenous thrombolysis with tissue plasminogen activator (IV-rtPA) and mechanical thrombectomy (MT) increase recanalization rates. We assessed if bridging-therapy (the concomitant use of rtPA and MT) could increase ...

    • Does prior administration of rtPA influence acute ischemic stroke clot composition? Findings from the analysis of clots retrieved with mechanical thrombectomy from the RESTORE registry

(Springer, 2021-08-20)
      Background and purpose There is still much debate whether bridging-therapy [intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) prior to mechanical thrombectomy (MT)] might be beneficial compared to MT alone. We investigated the effect of IVT ...

    • Large artery atherosclerotic clots are larger than clots of other stroke etiologies and have poorer recanalization rates

(Elsevier, 2020-11-24)
      Objectives There is a paucity of knowledge in the literature relating to the extent of clot burden and stroke etiology. In this study, we measured the Extracted Clot Area (ECA) retrieved during endovascular treatment (EVT) ...
