Effect of heparin in flush fluids should not be ignored by clinicians or researchers as higher concentrations may be associated with higher rates of ICH. The observed variation in protocols regarding heparin concentrations between EVT centers should encourage further studies, ideally in a controlled way, resulting in recommendations on heparin use in flush fluids in future guidelines.
