Blood Pressure Measurement Methods and Prediction of Intracranial Hemorrhage After Thrombectomy in Stroke

A monocentric, non-randomized, prospective study in which each patient is his/her own control.

The study investigates 2 methods of blood pressure measurement, within the first 24 hours after reperfusion, i) Continuous measurement of blood pressure with the Clearsight device (Edwards) and ii) intermittent blood pressure measurements with cuff.

Key information

About this study

Patients will be followed for 72 hours:

  • inclusion after reperfusion: clinical evaluation with NIHSS (National Institute of Health Stroke Score) score, measurement of blood pressure.
  • within 24 hours after reperfusion: blood pressure measurements
  • at 24 hours: NIHSS score.
  • Between 24 and 36 hours :cerebral scan (assessment of hemorrhagic transformations and cerebral infarction volumes).
  • 72 hours after reperfusion: brain scanner in case of hyperdensity on the initial scanner

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patient aged 18 years or older
  • Treated for occlusion of the internal carotid arteries and/or proximal middle cerebral arteries (M1 and M2 segments), vertebral artery, and/or basilar artery
  • Affiliated with or beneficiary of a Social Security plan
  • Having received informed information about the study and having given consent to participate in the study

Exclusion criteria

  • Per-procedure hemorrhagic complications (before reperfusion is achieved)
  • Patient benefiting from legal protection measures
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women

Treatment and study plan

Clearsight device (Edwards) around the finger

Device

Continuous measurement of blood pressure with the Clearsight device (Edwards) around the finger, within 24 hours after reperfusion:

Intermittent blood pressure measurements with cuff.

Device

Standard method: 35 blood pressure measurements with cuff within 24 hours after reperfusion

Primary outcomes

  1. Occurence of intracranial hemorrhagic complications

    Time frame: 36 hours after baseline

    number of intracranial hemorrhagic complications (symptomatic or asymptomatic) on brain scanner, evaluated with a double centralized blind reading
