In case of an event of stroke disability at 90-days±2 weeks will be an overall measurement of severity of stroke as assessed by modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scale.

Stroke disability will be classified using an adaptation of the modified Rankin Scale as follows, the assessment of which will be based on the Modified Rankin Disability Questionnaire.

Scale 0; No stroke symptoms at all. (May have other complaints) Scale 1; No significant disability; symptoms present but no physical or other limitations.

Scale 2; Slight disability; limitations in participation in usual social roles, but independent for activities of daily living (ADL) Scale 3; Some need for assistance but able to walk without assistance Scale 4; Moderately severe disability; need for assistance with some basic ADL, but not requiring constant care Scale 5; Severe disability; requiring constant nursing care and attention.

All TIMI definitions take into account blood transfusions, so that hemoglobin and hematocrit values are adjusted by 1 g/dl or 3%, respectively, for each unit of blood transfused. Therefore, the true change in hemoglobin or hematocrit if there has been an intervening transfusion between two blood measurements is calculated as follows:

• Δ Hemoglobin = [baseline Hgb - post-transfusion Hgb] + [number of transfused units];
• Δ Hematocrit = [baseline Hct - post-transfusion Hct] + [number of transfused units X 3].

• Complete anatomic revascularization requires revascularization of all vessels ≥2.0 mm reference vessel diameter with a DS ≥60% (both as measured by core angiographic laboratory analysis).

-While this will be the pre-specified criteria for anatomically significant lesions, sensitivity analysis will be performed using different criteria (e.g. ≥2.5 mm vessels, DS ≥70%, etc.)

• From the baseline angiogram, the angiographic core lab will identify and designate those lesions and vessels requiring revascularization in all subjects according to this definition, prior to knowledge of the extent of actual revascularization.
• Following PCI, the angiographic core lab will determine the extent of revascularization (vessels with TIMI 2or3 flow post procedure with a core laboratory DS <50% considered successfully revascularized).
