RESUMEN

Background: Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy can determine characteristics such as cell density, size, and shape. The development of an electrical impedance-based medical device to estimate acute ischemic stroke (AIS) clot characteristics could improve stroke patient outcomes by informing clinical decision making. Objectives: To assess how well electrical impedance combined with machine learning identified red blood cell (RBC)-rich composition of AIS clots ex vivo, which is associated with a successfully modified first-pass effect. Methods: A total of 253 clots from 231 patients who underwent thrombectomy in 5 hospitals in France, Japan, Serbia, and Spain between February 2021 and October 2023 were analyzed in the Clotbase International Registry. Electrical impedance measurements were taken following clot retrieval by thrombectomy, followed by Martius Scarlet Blue staining. The clot components were quantified via Orbit Image Analysis, and RBC percentages were correlated with the RBC estimations made by the electrical impedance machine learning model. Results: Quantification by Martius Scarlet Blue staining identified RBCs as the major component in clots (RBCs, 37.6%; white blood cells, 5.7%; fibrin, 25.5%; platelets/other, 30.3%; and collagen, 1%). The impedance-based RBC estimation correlated well with the RBC content determined by histology, with a slope of 0.9 and Spearman's correlation of r = 0.7. Clots removed in 1 pass were significantly richer in RBCs and clots with successful recanalization in 1 pass (modified first-pass effect) were richer in RBCs as assessed using histology and impedance signature. Conclusion: Electrical impedance estimations of RBC content in AIS clots are consistent with histologic findings and may have potential for clinically relevant parameters.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Intra-procedural characterization of stroke thromboemboli might guide mechanical thrombectomy (MT) device choice to improve recanalization rates. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) has been used to characterize various biological tissues in real time but has not been used in thrombus. OBJECTIVE: To perform a feasibility study of EIS analysis of thrombi retrieved by MT to evaluate: (1) the ability of EIS and machine learning to predict red blood cell (RBC) percentage content of thrombi and (2) to classify the thrombi as "RBC-rich" or "RBC-poor" based on a range of cutoff values of RBC. METHODS: ClotbasePilot was a multicentric, international, prospective feasibility study. Retrieved thrombi underwent histological analysis to identify proportions of RBC and other components. EIS results were analyzed with machine learning. Linear regression was used to evaluate the correlation between the histology and EIS. Sensitivity and specificity of the model to classify the thrombus as RBC-rich or RBC-poor were also evaluated. RESULTS: Among 514 MT,179 thrombi were included for EIS and histological analysis. The mean composition in RBC of the thrombi was 36% ± 24. Good correlation between the impedance-based prediction and histology was achieved (slope of 0.9, R2 = 0.53, Pearson coefficient = 0.72). Depending on the chosen cutoff, ranging from 20 to 60% of RBC, the calculated sensitivity for classification of thrombi ranged from 77 to 85% and the specificity from 72 to 88%. CONCLUSION: Combination of EIS and machine learning can reliably predict the RBC composition of retrieved ex vivo AIS thrombi and then classify them into groups according to their RBC composition with good sensitivity and specificity.
