Abstract

Abstract:

Cerebrovascular disease has a high incidence rate in my country, among which acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is the most common. The cerebral ischemia-induced brain injury and its complications seriously affect the quality-of-life of modern people. At present, clinical research regarding AIS interventional treatment have made new progress in terms of applicable scope, medical perspective, treatment technology. The Neurology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association organized and formulated the "Chinese guidelines for the endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke" in 2018 and 2022, which have great clinical significance for understanding and diagnosis of AIS. In this article, A comparative analysis will be performed in 2018 and 2022 guidelines to clarify the changes in early endovascular interventional, which might be beneficial to clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Key words: ischemic stroke, early endovascular intervention, guideline, comparison

2018年指南	院内延误控制方面,对符合血管内介入治疗适应证患者应尽可能控制院内延误治疗的时间。 Ⅰ级推荐,B级证据:在行静脉溶栓桥接机械取栓过程中,不应等待观察静脉溶栓的具体疗效。	Ⅰ级推荐,A级证据:当患者同时符合静脉溶栓与动脉取栓的条件,建议行静脉溶栓-动脉取栓桥接治疗模式,不推荐越过静脉溶栓直接进行血管内处理。
2022年指南		①3个Ⅰ级推荐,A级证据:将符合闭塞血管开通适应证的患者迅速运送至就近卒中中心救治;对于发病时间<4.5 h的急性前循环大血管闭塞卒中,满足条件要求的推荐静脉溶栓-血管内介入的桥接治疗模式;对于发病4.5~24 h的大血管闭塞卒中,经过充分评估后,直接进行血管内治疗; ②两个Ⅱ级推荐,B级证据:绕过能够静脉溶栓的卒中中心直接转运至具备血管内治疗的卒中中心,患者是否获益仍不确定;在能够快速启动血管内治疗的卒中中心,经过充分评估的病例,越过静脉溶栓直接进行血管内治疗是可行的,但临床获益有待于进一步证实。
