Leading Neurointerventionalists Say New Insights on TRIAGE-STROKE and RACECAT Affirm Benefits of Direct Transport to CSCs for ELVO Patients

Retrieved on: 
Tuesday, December 19, 2023

FAIRFAX, Va., Dec. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- In an Editor's Column published in the Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgery (JNIS), leaders of the Society of NeuroInterventional Surgery (SNIS) conclude that the entire body of research, including evidence from two new prospective trials, clearly confirm that most patients with emergent large vessel occlusions (ELVO) will benefit from triage directly to comprehensive stroke centers (CSCs).

Key Points: 
  • Since the release of this prospective data earlier this year, SNIS leaders say trade media and select hospital systems have issued messaging proclaiming, without qualification, that direct triage programs are ineffective.
  • This has caused concerns about risks to patient care and outcomes in the neurointerventional community.
  • Globally, mechanical thrombectomy is not only considered effective for eligible patients, but firmly established as the standard of care for ELVO patients.
  • These are life and death decisions, and it is our duty as care providers to prioritize patient outcomes over additional profits."
