Clinical outcomes among patients who met DAWN or DEFUSE-3 perfusion criteria.

Unfavorable ASPECTS (n=23) Favorable ASPECTS (n=137) Unadjusted OR 95%CI p-value Adjusted OR* 95%CI p-value
Any ICH within 72 hours 12 (52%) 38 (28%) 2.8 1.1-7.1 0.03 2.6 1.1-6.3 0.04
 Symptomatic ICH within 72 hours 5 (22%) 4 (3%) 9.2 2.9-29.4 <0.01 16.4 3.7-72.7 <0.01

*

Odds ratios adjusted for age, baseline NIHSS, intravenous thrombolysis, TICI 2b/3 recanalization, and time to recanalization, and clustered by hospital site.

Symptomatic ICH indicates worsening of the NIHSS by 4 or more points within 24 hours of admission with associated intracranial hemorrhage identified on computed tomography detected within 72 hours.

Good functional outcome indicates mRS of 0-2 90 days after infarct.

#

Common odds ratio for achieving a better (lower) mRS score at 90 days.

ASPECTS: Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Scale, n: number of patients, OR: odds ratio, CI: confidence interval, ICH: intracerebral hemorrhage, mRS: modified Rankin Scale, NIHSS: National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, and TICI: thrombolysis in cerebral infarction, with a score of 2b/3 indicating >50% recanalization of the previously occluded vessel.
