Abstract:

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of modified SWIM technique for mechanical thrombectomy in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods: Total 114 patients with acute ischemic stroke who underwent mechanical thrombectomy in The Third the People's Hospital of Bengbu from January 2021 to January 2024 were included. Modified SWIM technique (modified thrombectomy group, n=57) and conventional SWIM technique (conventional thrombectomy group, n=57) were given respectively. Vascular recanalization rate of the first thrombectomy, overall vascular recanalization rate, the number of thrombectomy, puncture-to-reperfusion time, near-term neurological deficits [National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) at 14 d postoperatively] and long-term neurological prognosis [modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 90 d postoperatively] were recorded, as well as symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) rate and mortality. Results: The vascular recanalization rate of the first thrombectomy in modified thrombectomy group was higher than that in conventional thrombectomy group (χ2=5.054, P=0.025), the number of thrombectomy was less than (Z=2.014, P=0.044), and puncture-to-reperfusion time was shorter than (Z=2.630, P=0.009) conventional thrombectomy group. There was a statistically significant difference in NIHSS score between modified thrombectomy group and conventional thrombectomy group before and after surgery (F=5.185, P=0.025), and there was also a statistically significant difference in NIHSS score between the 2 groups at admission and 14 d after surgery (F=133.705, P=0.000). There was not an interaction between treatment factors and measurement times (F=3.148, P=0.079). The NIHSS score 14 d after surgery in modified thrombectomy group was lower than that in conventional thrombectomy group (t=2.969, P=0.004). The NIHSS score of modified thrombectomy group (t=10.286, P=0.000) and conventional thrombectomy group (t=6.428, P=0.000) were lower at 14 d after surgery than those at admission. There was a statistically significant difference in mRS score between modified thrombectomy group and conventional thrombectomy group before and after surgery (F=7.581, P=0.007), and there was also a statistically significant difference in mRS score between the 2 groups at admission and 90 d after surgery (F=277.328, P=0.000). There was an interaction between treatment factors and measurement times (F=10.471, P=0.002), and the effect of modified SWIM technique was better. Modified thrombectomy group had a better prognosis (mRS score ≤ 2) at 90 d after surgery than conventional thrombectomy group (χ2=4.267, P=0.039). There were no significant differences in the incidence of postoperative sICH rate (χ2=0.077, P=0.782) and the mortality (χ2=0.101, P=0.751) between 2 groups. Conclusions: The application of modified SWIM technique in mechanical thrombectomy has better efficacy and safety than conventional SWIM technique, and is worthy of clinical promotion.

摘要:

目的: 探讨改良SWIM技术机械取栓术治疗急性缺血性卒中的有效性和安全性。方法: 纳入2021年1月至2024年1月在安徽省蚌埠市第三人民医院行血管内机械取栓术的114例急性缺血性卒中患者,分别予以改良SWIM技术(改良取栓组,57例)和常规SWIM技术(常规取栓组,57例),记录首次取栓血管再通率、总体血管再通率、取栓次数、穿刺至再灌注时间,近期神经功能缺损[术后14 d美国国立卫生研究院卒中量表(NIHSS)]和远期神经功能预后[术后90 d改良Rankin量表(mRS)],以及症状性颅内出血发生率和病死率。结果: 改良取栓组首次取栓血管再通率高于常规取栓组(χ2 = 5.054,P = 0.025),取栓次数少于(Z = 2.014,P = 0.044)、穿刺至再灌注时间短于(Z = 2.630,P = 0.009)常规取栓组。改良取栓组与常规取栓组手术前后NIHSS评分差异有统计学意义(F = 5.185,P = 0.025),两组入院时与术后14 d NIHSS评分差异亦有统计学意义(F = 133.705,P = 0.000),但处理因素与测量时间之间无交互作用(F = 3.148,P = 0.079),其中术后14 d改良取栓组NIHSS评分低于常规取栓组(t = 2.969,P = 0.004),改良取栓组(t = 10.286,P = 0.000)和常规取栓组(t = 6.428,P = 0.000)术后14 d NIHSS评分均低于入院时。改良取栓组与常规取栓组手术前后mRS评分差异有统计学意义(F = 7.581,P = 0.007),两组患者入院时与术后90 d mRS评分差异亦有统计学意义(F = 277.328,P = 0.000),且处理因素与测量时间之间存在交互作用(F = 10.471,P = 0.002),改良SWIM技术的效果更佳。改良取栓组术后90 d预后良好(mRS评分≤ 2分)率高于常规取栓组(χ2 = 4.267,P = 0.039),而两组术后症状性颅内出血发生率(χ2 = 0.077, P = 0.782)和病死率(χ2 = 0.101,P = 0.751)差异均无统计学意义。结论: 机械取栓术中应用改良SWIM技术较常规SWIM技术具有更好的疗效且安全性相当,值得临床推广。
