ABSTRACT
Few studies have reported the clinical outcomes of older adult patients with acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusion (LVO) who underwent mechanical thrombectomy (MT). Therefore, we investigated the safety, functional outcomes, and predictors of MT for anterior circulation LVO in older adults. We enrolled patients with acute anterior circulation LVO from May 2018 to October 2021 in this retrospective study. Patients were divided into older (≥80 years) and young (<80 years) groups. Multivariable logistic regression analyses determined the safety, functional outcomes, and predictors of MT for anterior circulation LVO. We divided 1182 patients with acute ischemic stroke into young (18-79 years; 1028 patients) and older (≥80 years; 154 patients) groups. Compared with the young group, the older group had more unfavorable functional outcomes and increased mortality (P = .003). In the older adult patients, lower initial NIHSS score and higher ASPECTS were correlated with good outcomes. On the contrary, higher initial NIHSS score and lower ASPECTS were related to increased mortality. No difference was detected in symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage within 48â
h between two groups. Increasing age was associated with lower rates of favorable functional outcomes and higher mortality rates. The lower initial NIHSS score combined with the higher ASPECTS may predict functional outcomes post-thrombectomy in older adults.
