Identifying the predictors of first-pass effect and its influence on clinical outcome in the setting of endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke: Results from a multicentric prospective registry.

In this study, a strategy combining thrombectomy and thrombo-aspiration was more effective than other strategies in achieving first-pass effect. In addition, we confirm that clinical outcome was better in patients with first-pass effect compared to non-first-pass effect patients.
