O-060 Lower blood pressure is associated with good clinical outcome in patients with blood brain barrier disruption after successful endovascular thrombectomy

Abstract

Objective To evaluate the association between post-EVT (endo-vascular thrombectomy) blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption on MRI and average systolic blood pressure (SBP) with favorable outcome (90-day modified Rankin Scale 0 – 2). Background Observational studies have found associations between elevated SBP with intracranial hemorrhage and worse outcomes after EVT. A recent randomized trial found no difference in intensive versus standard BP reduction. It remains undetermined
