Study & Design

- Study Design
- Not specified
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Events of all-cause mortality and recurrent ischemic stroke are recorded at 90 days and 1 year
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method 1. Post-therapy 90-day combined endpoint of recurrent stroke or death<br>2. Post-therapy disability is evaluated with modified Rankin Scale score and Barthel Index; WAIS-III and CASI National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) within 1, 3, and 30 days (±14 days) and 90 days (±14 days):<br>3. Post-therapy brain reperfusion status is measured by using brain Magnetic resonance imaging [Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) and Dynamic Contrast Enhancement] at 24-72 hours and 90 days (±14 days) <br>4. Post-therapy brain perfusion defect evaluation is measured using radionuclear medicine image [brain Tc-99m scan] 24-72 hours and 90 days (±14 days) <br>5. Any adverse events are recorded within 5 years post-therapy
