Endovascular Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke Using the Stent Retriever-Assisted Vacuum-Locked Extraction Technique02:44

Endovascular Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke Using the Stent Retriever-Assisted Vacuum-Locked Extraction Technique

Source: Schregel, K., et al. Optimized Management of Endovascular Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke. J. Vis. Exp. (2018).This video demonstrates the endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke using the stent retriever-assisted vacuum-locked extraction technique. A guiding sheath is introduced through the femoral artery to reach the clot. A catheter with a stent retriever secures and extracts the clot. Vascular imaging is done to confirm successful...

Assessing the Angiogenesis Effects of a Test Drug in a Rat Model of Ischemic Stroke

Begin with a rat subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion, a surgical procedure that temporarily blocks blood flow to the brain tissue.This induces an ischemic stroke, leading to brain tissue damage.Next, remove the blockage to restore blood flow.Select rats that exhibit neurological deficits to ensure study relevance.Then, administer the test drug to the experimental group while injecting saline into the other group.Repeat the drug and saline administration.The test drug promotes...

Cutoff Value of Phase Angle by Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis at Admission as a Prognostic Factor in Patients with Acute Heart Failure05:16

Cutoff Value of Phase Angle by Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis at Admission as a Prognostic Factor in Patients with Acute Heart Failure

This protocol presents R codes for performing restricted cubic spline multivariable Cox regression analysis to determine the cutoff value of the phase angle for prognosis in acute heart failure as well as codes for calculating statistics that measure the discriminatory ability of each model and evaluate its goodness of fit.

Optimized Management of Endovascular Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke09:21

Optimized Management of Endovascular Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke

The outcome of patients with acute ischemic stroke depends on swift restoration of cerebral blood flow. This protocol aims at optimizing the management of such patients by minimizing peri-procedural timings and rendering the time from hospital admission to reperfusion as short as...
