Long-term Outcome of RIPC After IV Thrombolysis in AIS Patients

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the long-term efficacy of our previous study in acute ischemic stroke(AIS) patients who underwent either remote ischemic postconditioning(RIPC) or sham treatment after intravenous thrombolysis. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Dose the RIPC treatment combined with IV thrombolysis can improve the long-term functional outcome in AIS patients? * Dose the RIPC treatment combined with IV thrombolysis can improve the incidence rates of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, recurrent stroke/TIA, new-onset clinical AF on this long-term follow-up? A single rater (A.E.P.) trained by an experienced stroke physician (S.T.E.) contacted patients, relatives, and family physicians to gather all available medical information on the following issues: 1) survival status, 2) date of death in those who died (based on information of the treating physicians), 3) mRS score at the time of the interview, 4) recurrent stroke/TIA, 5) new onset atrial fibrillation, 6) other cardiovascular events, including myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism, deep venous thrombosis, peripheral arteriopathy.

Researchers will compare RIPC group and control group to see if the RIPC treatment have a long-term effect in AIS patients.

  • functional outcomes(mRS scoring), 2)survival status, 3) date of death in those who died (based on information of the treating physicians), 3) mRS score at the time of the interview, 4) recurrent stroke/TIA, 5) new onset atrial fibrillation, 6) other cardiovascular events, including myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism, deep venous thrombosis, peripheral arteriopathy.

Primary outcomes

  1. the proportion of excellent functional outcome, %

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 5 year

    An excellent functional outcome define as mRS= 0 and 1.

Secondary outcomes

  1. the proportion of favorable outcome (mRS scores 0-2), %

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 5 year

    A favorable functional outcome define as mRS= 0-2.

  2. incidence rates of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, %

    Time frame: From date of randomization until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 100 months

  3. recurrent stroke/TIA

    Time frame: From date of randomization until the date of first documented recurrent stroke/TIA or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months
