Balloon Angioplasty for Minor Unstable Stroke With IntraCranial Atherosclerosis Stenosis (BAMUS-ICAS)

Sponsor: General Hospital of Shenyang Military Region

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) is a common cause of stroke, especially in East and South Asia, and is significantly associated with stroke recurrence and early neurological deterioration (END) despite aggressive medical management. Minor stroke (National Institutes of Health Stroke, NIHSS score ≤ 5) patients with ICAS often has higher risk of END. The early realization of blood flow patency is closely related to the improvement of patient outcomes. Submaximal balloon angioplasty (SBA) as a safer and simpler intervention which can improve cerebral blood flow. Thus, SBA may be an effective strategy for preventing END in acute ischemic stroke patients with ICAS.
