The European Stroke Organization has chosen “Sonothrombolysis in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke With Large Vessel Occlusion: An Individual Patient Data Meta-Analysis” for the September 2021 “Paper of the Month”.
Stroke has published “Sonothrombolysis in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke With Large Vessel Occlusion: An Individual Patient Data Meta-Analysis”. This meta-analysis uses individual patient data from 7 different randomized controlled trials, including the CLOTBUST-ER trial, to show that “Sonothrombolysis was associated with a nearly 2-fold increase in the odds of complete recanalization compared with intravenous thrombolysis alone in patients with AIS with large vessel occlusions”.
