				        	Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of intravenous infusion of tirofiban after mechanical thrombectomy in elderly patients with acute anterior circulation intracranial athero-sclerotic stenosis-related large vessel occlusion(ICAS-LVO).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 106 elderly patients with acute anterior circulation ICAS-LVO undergoing me-chanical thrombectomy in our hospital from June 2021 to August 2023.After operation,38 pa-tients receiving 48-hour intravenous infusion of tirofiban at a drip rate of 0.1 μg/(kg·min)were assigned into experimental group,while the other 68 patients undergoing the infusion for only 24 h served as the control group.The indicators related to efficacy(90-day good prognosis rate)and to safety[intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH),symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage(sICH),and 90-day mortality rate]were compared between the 2 groups.Multivariate logistic regression model was employed to analyze the influencing factors for good prognosis.Results The experimental group exhibited a significantly higher rate of 90-day favorable prognosis than the control group(52.6%vs 29.4%,P=0.018),but no significant differences were observed in the rates of ICH,sICH,and 90-day mortality between the 2 groups(P>0.05).Multivariate logistic regression anal-ysis indicated that intravenous tirofiban administration for 48 h(OR=2.554,95%CI:1.067-6.116,P=0.034)and NIHSS score at admission(OR=0.887,95%CI:0.822-0.957,P=0.001)were independent influencing factors for 90-day prognosis in elderly patients undergoing mechani-cal thrombectomy due to acute anterior circulation ICAS-LVO.Conclusion In elderly acute ante-rior circulation ICAS-LVO patients receiving mechanical thrombectomy,postoperative intrave-nous tirofiban infusion for 48 h shows better improvement for 90-day prognosis than for 24 h,and has no effect on increasing the risk of sICH.
