Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of domestic RECO flow restoration device in endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke(AIS)patients in a real-world setting.Methods From January 2019 to June 2021,consecutive patients with acute intracranial vessel occlusion treated with RECO device from 8 stroke centers in Jiangsu Province were analyzed retrospectively.Baseline and clinical data were collected,including age,gender,baseline modified Rankin scale(mRS)scores,National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS)score on admission,trial of Org 10172 in acute stroke treatment(TOAST)classification,responsible location of occlusion,wake-up stroke,and medical history(hypertension,diabetes mellitus,hyperlipidemia,atrial fibrillation,coronary heart disease,peripheral arterial disease),smoking,and alcohol consumption.Furthermore,surgical parameters were collected,including time indicators(intervals between symptom onset,admission,puncture and recanalization),preoperative intravenous thrombolysis,general anesthesia,combination of aspiration,number of passes,first pass effect(modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction[mTICI]grade 3 achieved with s single stent-based thrombectomy),rescue therapy(including thrombectomy with other stents,intra-arterial urokinase thrombolysis,intra-arterial application of tirofiban,emergency angioplasty[stent implantation,balloon dilatation,balloon dilatation combined with stent implantation]),balloon guided catheter and NIHSS score at discharge.The effectiveness indicators included immediate successful recanalization after the operation(mTICI grade ≥ 2b),complete recanalization(mTICI grade 3),and a good prognosis at 90 d after the operation(mRS score ≤2).The safety indicators included symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage(sICH)within 24 h after the operation,device-related intraoperative complications(such as thrombus escape,iatrogenic dissection,bleeding at the surgical site),and all-cause mortality within 90 days after the operation.All patients were divided into the anterior circulation occlusion group and the posterior circulation occlusion group according to the location of the responsible occluded vessel,and the effectiveness and safety indexes were analyzed.Results A total of 366 patients with AIS caused by intracranial vessel occlusion who underwent mechanical thrombectomy with the domestic RECO thrombectomy stent were included.The average age was(69±11)years,with 54 patients(14.8％)over 80 years old and 221 patients(60.4％)male.There were 296 patients in the anterior circulation occlusion group and 70 patients in the posterior circulation occlusion group.(1)Immediate successful recanalization(mTICI grade≥2b)was achieved in 337 patients(92.1％),and complete recanalization was achieved in 282 patients(77.0％)immediately after the operation.The average number of thrombectomies was(1.9±1.0)times,and 141 patients(38.5％)achieved recanalization on the first attempt.9 patients(2.5％)used other stents during the operation,and 65 patients(17.8％)underwent emergency angioplasty.The incidence of sICH within 24 h after the operation was 10.9％(40/366),the good prognosis rate at 90 d after the operation was 53.6％(196/366),and the all-cause mortality rate at 90 d after the operation was 23.0％(84/366).The incidence of device-related intraoperative complications was 3.6％(13/366).The median time from arterial puncture to recanalization was 75(52,110)min,and the median time from onset to recanalization was 370(280,488)min.(2)The good prognosis rates at 90 d after the operation in the anterior and posterior circulation occlusion groups were 55.1％(163/296)and 47.1％(33/70),respectively.The immediate successful recanalization rates were 93.2％(276/296)and 87.1％(61/70),respectively.The immediate complete recanalization rates were 79.1％(234/296)and 68.6％(48/70),respectively.The incidence of sICH within 24h after the operation was 12.2％(36/296)and 5.7％(4/70),respectively.The incidence of device-related intraoperative complications was 3.7％(11/296)and 2.9％(2/70),respectively.The all-cause mortality rate within 90 d after the operation was 21.6％(64/296)and 28.6％(20/70),respectively.There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in the above aspects(all P＞0.05).Conclusions The application of the domestic RECO thrombectomy stent in the treatment of AIS caused by intracranial vessel occlusion can effectively and safely achieve vascular recanalization.The results of this study still need to be further verified by prospective controlled studies.
