North American Solitaire Stent Retriever Acute Stroke registry: post-marketing revascularization and clinical outcome results.
J Neurointerv Surg
July 2018
Department of Neurology, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
Background: Limited post-marketing data exist on the use of the Solitaire FR device in clinical practice. The North American Solitaire Stent Retriever Acute Stroke (NASA) registry aimed to assess the real world performance of the Solitaire FR device in contrast with the results from the SWIFT (Solitaire with the Intention for Thrombectomy) and TREVO 2 (Trevo versus Merci retrievers for thrombectomy revascularization of large vessel occlusions in acute ischemic stroke) trials.
Methods: The investigator initiated NASA registry recruited North American sites to submit retrospective angiographic and clinical outcome data on consecutive acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients treated with the Solitaire FR between March 2012 and February 2013.
Clinical and Angiographic Outcomes with the Combined Local Aspiration and Retriever in the North American Solitaire Stent-Retriever Acute Stroke (NASA) Registry.

February 2018
Department of Neurology, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
Background: Various techniques are used to enhance the results of mechanical thrombectomy with stent-retrievers, including proximal arrest with balloon guide catheter (BGC), conventional large bore proximal catheter (CGC), or in combination with local aspiration through a large-bore catheter positioned at the clot interface (Aspiration-Retriever Technique for Stroke [ARTS]). We evaluated the impact of ARTS in the North American Solitaire Acute Stroke (NASA) registry.
Summary: Data on the use of the aspiration technique were available for 285 anterior circulation patients, of which 29 underwent ARTS technique, 131 CGC, and 125 BGC.

St Vincent Mercy Medical Center, Toledo, Ohio, USA.
Background: Time to reperfusion following endovascular treatment (ET) predicts outcomes after acute ischemic stroke (AIS).
Objective: To assess the time-outcome relationship within reperfusion grades in the North American Solitaire Acute Stroke registry.
Methods: We identified patients given ET for anterior circulation ischemic stroke within 8 h from onset and in whom reperfusion was achieved.

Background And Purpose: The Solitaire With the Intention for Thrombectomy (SWIFT) and thrombectomy revascularization of large vessel occlusions in acute ischemic stroke (TREVO 2) trial results demonstrated improved recanalization rates with mechanical thrombectomy; however, outcomes in the elderly population remain poorly understood. Here, we report the effect of age on clinical and angiographic outcome within the North American Solitaire-FR Stent-Retriever Acute Stroke (NASA) Registry.
Methods: The NASA Registry recruited sites to submit data on consecutive patients treated with Solitaire-FR.

Background And Purpose: Previous work that predated the availability of the safer stent-retriever devices has suggested that general anesthesia (GA) may have a negative impact on outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke undergoing endovascular therapy.
Methods: We reviewed demographic, clinical, procedural (GA versus local anesthesia [LA], etc), and site-adjudicated angiographic and clinical outcomes data from consecutive patients treated with the Solitaire FR device in the investigator-initiated North American SOLITAIRE Stent-Retriever Acute Stroke (NASA) Registry. The primary outcomes were 90-day modified Rankin Scale, mortality, and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage.

Feasibility of using cone-beam CT to verify and reposition the optically guided target localization of linear accelerator based stereotactic radiosurgery.

Cancer Care Department, Provena Saint Joseph Medical Center, Joliet, Illinois 60435, USA.
Purpose: The optically guided target localization had been developed for linear accelerator based stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). Unlike the traditional laser localization, the optical guided target localization utilizes a digital system to position patient. Although the system has been proven accurate and robust, it takes away the capability of physicist to directly double check the target position prior to irradiation.

Generation of wedge-shaped dose distributions through dynamic multileaf collimator dose delivery.

Cancer Care Department, Provena Saint Joseph Medical Center, 333 North Madison Street, Joliet, Illinois 60435, USA.
A new method of generating wedge-shaped dose distributions through dynamic multileaf collimator dose delivery rather than computer-controlled jaw motion is presented. The method starts with the calculation of a wedge-shaped beam profile for the desired wedge angle. The resultant wedge beam profile is then passed to the intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) leaf sequence generation algorithm to create multileaf collimator (MLC) segments for dose delivery.

August 1999
Provena Saint Joseph Medical Center, Joliet, IL, USA.
Objective: To evaluate whether cardiac surgical patients receiving conventional versus fast-track anesthetic management are statistically significantly different with regard to cardiovascular drug infusions, weight gain, cardiac and pulmonary morbidity, length of intubation, and length of stay.
Design: Retrospective, (partially) sequential, cohort design.

Family Health Center, Provena Saint Joseph Medical Center, Napierville, Ill 60564, USA.
Background: Studies from more than 10 years ago have shown that most parents choose circumcision for their infant sons for nonmedical reasons. Since then a wealth of data has accumulated on the relative risks and benefits of the procedure, although the medical community remains divided on the appropriateness of the procedure. Whether the ongoing research effort and medical debate have had an effect on parental decision making is unknown.
