Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the prehospital predictors of large-vessel occlusion (LVO) in acute ischemic stroke.Methods:This study recruited patients who had developed LVO for less than 24 hours and had a National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score ≥ 8 and who received treatment in Lu'an People's Hospital from December 2018 to November 2020. The included patients were divided into LVO and LVO-free groups according to the presence of a large-vessel occlusion determined by magnetic resonance angiography, CT angiography, and digital subtraction angiography. Baseline data (sex, age, disease history, life history, and medication history), NIHSS subscale score, and blood pressure at admission were compared between LVO and LVO-free groups. The efficacy of the factors that were screened for predicting LVO in acute ischemic stroke were compared with the that of commonly used scales.Results:A total of 761 patients with acute ischemic stroke who had an NIHSS score ≥ 8 were included in the final analysis. Among them, 228 patients had an LVO and 533 patients had no LVO. There were significant differences in the proportions of patients with atrial fibrillation ( OR = 5.230, 95% CI = 3.400-8.043, P < 0.001) and systolic blood pressure ≤ 170 mmHg ( OR = 5.181, 95% CI = 3.327-8.068, P < 0.001) between the two groups. Conclusion:Atrial fibrillation and systolic blood pressure ≤ 170 mmHg are greatly associated with the presence of large-vessel occlusion in acute ischemic stroke.
