REscue Stenting With CREDO® Heal for Recanalisation After Unsuccessful Thrombectomy (RECHRUT)
Goal of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of acute permanent stenting of symptomatic intracranial stenosis following unsuccessful recanalization by thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion using the self-expandable CREDO® heal Stent.
• Patients, treated with CREDO® heal according to IFU
• Over 18 years old
• With acute persistent vascular occlusion due to high grade intracranial artery stenosis in the anterior or posterior circulation for which alternative therapy concepts are not considered or fail
• With suspected underlying stenosis of the occluded artery, which is suitable for PTA and stenting according to the treating physician's assessment and/or persistent occlusion after failed recanalization by mechanical thrombectomy of the target region
• With small to moderate infarct core prior to initiation of thrombectomy (CT ASPECTS 6-10, DWI lesion \< 70 ml)
• With symptoms onset less than 24 hours before start of the procedure
• Treated with study device following at least one futile mechanical recanalization attempt with a stent retriever, direct aspiration or combination of both
• With pre-stroke disability mRS 0-2
