Predictors of favorable functional outcomes for elderly patients undergoing endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke
In this study, we identified factors that predicted a favorable functional outcome in elderly LVO-AIS patients undergoing MT. A higher baseline NIHSS decreased the odds of mRS 0-2 at 90 days, whereas a history of atrial fibrillation increased the odds of a favorable functional outcome. These results emphasize the complex relationship between clinical factors and functional recovery in this vulnerable population.
