3 Valuable Takeaways from the ANGEL-REBOOT Trial for ICAS-O Stroke
Stroke AHA/ASA Journal posted on X:
”In the secondary analysis of the ANGEL-REBOOT trial, longer puncture-to-recanalization time was associated with an increased risk of early reocclusion, while general anesthesia and eTICI 2c-3 were associated with a reduced risk of early reocclusion.”

ANGEL-REBOOT trial yields important clinical facts!
The findings were published in the research article ”Factors Associated With Early Reocclusion in Recanalized Intracranial Atherosclerotic Occlusion: ANGEL-REBOOT Insights” in Stroke, with following conclusions:
- In patients with intracranial atherosclerotic occlusion (ICAS-O) stroke, early reocclusion after successful mechanical thrombectomy is linked to poor outcomes.
- A post hoc analysis from a multicenter trial identified that longer puncture-to-recanalization time increases the risk of early reocclusion within 24 hours.
- Conversely, general anesthesia and achieving a postprocedural eTICI score of 2c-3 were associated with a lower risk.
These findings offer valuable insights for optimizing procedural strategies to improve outcomes in ICAS-O stroke.
