Article Synopsis
- The use of oral vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) may increase the risk of complications for patients undergoing endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) due to acute ischemic stroke from large vessel occlusion.
- This study retrospectively analyzed data from over 32,000 patients to explore the relationship between recent VKA use and outcomes during EVT.
- Results indicated that while overall prior VKA use was not linked to a significantly higher risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH), patients with higher INR levels (above 1.7) faced a considerably increased risk compared to those not taking VKAs.
