OBJETIVO: Estudiar los resultados y las complicaciones del tratamiento endovascular (TEV) en pacientes con ictus isquémico agudo ingresados en una unidad de cuidados intensivos (UCI). Analizar los factores que podrían influir en la mortalidad y en el grado de discapacidad al alta y un año después del ictus. DISEÑO: Estudio prospectivo observacional. Ámbito: UCI polivalente. Hospital de tercer nivel. PACIENTES: Sesenta pacientes adultos. Muestra consecutiva. INTERVENCIONES: Ninguna. Variables de interés: Datos epidemiológicos, tiempo desde la clínica inicial hasta el TEV, resultado angiográfico, tiempo de estancia en UCI, días de ventilación mecánica, complicaciones neurológicas, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) al ingreso y al alta de UCI, escala de Rankin modificada (mRS) al año de evolución. RESULTADOS: Edad media 68,90±8,84años. Mediana de tiempo hasta el TEV: 180min. Mediana NIHSS al ingreso: 17,5; al alta: 3. Flujo distal en el 90% de los casos. Mediana estancia en UCI: 3días. Ventilación mecánica: 81,7%. Independencia funcional (mRS≤2) 50% al año del ictus. Fallecimientos: 22 (36,6%); 8 (13,3%) en la UCI y el resto durante el primer año. CONCLUSIONES: Las variables asociadas a un peor estado funcional fueron la transformación hemorrágica sintomática, la ausencia de recanalización y las complicaciones durante el procedimiento. La transformación hemorrágica y la hidrocefalia se asociaron a mayor mortalidad. Se consiguió flujo distal en la mayoría de los casos, con una baja tasa de complicaciones. La mitad de los pacientes alcanza independencia funcional al año del ictus
PURPOSE: To study the results and complications of endovascular treatment (EVT) in acute ischemic stroke patients admitted to Intensive Care Unit (ICU). To analyse the possible factors related to mortality and level of disability at ICU discharge and one year after stroke. DESIGN: Observational prospective study. SETTING: Mixed ICU. Third level hospital. PATIENTS: Sixty adult patients. Consecutive sample. INTERVENTIONS: None. Variables of interest: Epidemiological data, time from symptom onset to EVT, angiographic result, length of stay, days on mechanical ventilation, neurological complications, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) at ICU admission and discharge, modified Rankin scale score (mRS) at one year. RESULTS: Mean age 68,90±8,84years. Median time from symptom onset to EVT: 180minutes. Median NIHSS at admission: 17,5; at discharge: 3. Distal flow was achieved in 90% of cases. Median ICU stay: 3 days. Mechanical ventilation: 81,7.%. Functional independence (mRS≤2) 50% at one year. Deaths: 22 (36,6%) of which 8 (13,3%) died during UCI stay and the rest during the first year. CONCLUSIONS: The factors relating to a worse functional outcome were symptomatic hemorrhage transformation, lack of recanalization and complications during EVT. The factors relating to mortality were symptomatic hemorrhage and hydrocephalus. Distal flow was achieve in most cases with a low complication rate. Half of the patients presented functional independence one year after the stroke
