Summary
Objectives:
This study aims to estimate overall treatment benefit (improvement in disability) among acute
ischemic stroke patients that are randomized to General Anesthesia (GA) compared with
Sedation (CS) during endovascular therapy. Assess safety (as measured by incidence of
symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage); rates of Endovascular therapy (EVT) procedural
complications, reperfusion; and quality of life.
Hypothesis:
GA during EVT for acute ischemic stroke improves functional outcomes at 90 days compared to
sedation.
Phase:
