Abstract

Background: Time to reperfusion (TTR) is commonly cited in clinical outcome after endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke, yet collaterals may set the pace of ischemia. Real-world data on fast and slow progressors also remain scarce. We analyzed the impact of TTR on clinical outcome in real-world data using core lab adjudicated angiography, interventional steps and corresponding reperfusion. Methods: 16 key time intervals were calculated from workflow (time of symptom onset, door, picture, puncture) and core lab metrics (clot visualization, first deployment, first reperfusion, final angiography) in real-world data from the Trevo Retriever Registry. These 16 variations of TTR were analyzed overall and by collateral status (ASITN 0-1 versus 2 versus 3-4) to determine the relationship with 90-day clinical outcomes. Results: Real-world data on endovascular therapy from 1,441 subjects in the Trevo Retriever Registry were analyzed to relate TTR with clinical outcomes. Overall metrics for TTR are shown in Table 1. TTR was not linked with collateral status. Using a multivariate model incorporating known predictors, there was no influence of TTR using any of the 16 definitions on clinical outcome. Better collateral status on DSA prior to revascularization showed a potent relationship with 90-day mRS (p<0.001) and better probability of functional independence (aOR 1.4, 95% CI 1.2, 1.7) per grade of collateral flow. Conclusions: Collaterals transform time to reperfusion, linking fast and slow progressors with subsequent clinical outcomes. TTR may be standardized based on these 16 key epochs in endovascular stroke therapy to document workflow metrics. Time is relative, even when measured with detailed, standardized metrics.
