Supporting operator choice in Stroke treatment: the ASSIST Registry compares 3 different techniques

Join in the conversation between Prof. Markus Möhlenbruch and Dr Paul Bhogal at LINNC Paris 2022 as they consider the latest data from the ASSIST “real-world” Registry.

Comparing patients treated with large artery occlusions in the anterior circulation using any one of the 3 pre-defined techniques: stent retriever classic, stent retriever in combination with aspiration or direct aspiration, this Registry aimed to answer the question: Which one was most efficacious?

How do we interpret that and what does this imply in terms of the first pass effect or early reperfusion?
