Study Summary
To determine if the Trevo Retriever is as good or better than the Merci Retriever in restoring blood flow to the brain of a patient experiencing an acute ischemic stroke in a large vessel.
Primary Outcome
Revascularization of the occluded territory, defined as at least TICI 2 flow in the treated territory after use of the assigned device. Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (TICI) grading system for perfusion (ie blood flow through a vessel) Grade 0:No Perfusion. No antegrade flow beyond the point of occlusion. Grade 1:Penetration With Minimal Perfusion. Grade 2:Partial Perfusion. Grade 2a:Only partial filling (\<2/3) of the entire vascular territory is visualized. Grade 2b:Complete filling of
Interventions
- DEVICE Mechanical Thrombectomy
