Direct Ischemic Conditioning for Endovascular Recanalization for Anterior Large Vessel Occlusion (DICER-aLVO)

Direct Ischemic Conditioning initiated within 5 minutes post-revascularization using either a balloon guiding catheter or a balloon catheter, positioned at the C1 segment of the ipsilateral internal carotid artery (ICA) to temporarily halt antegrade flow. The protocol comprised 5 cycles of 30-s balloon inflations and 30-s deflations.

Direct Ischemic Conditioning initiated within 5 minutes post-revascularization using either a balloon guiding catheter or a balloon catheter, positioned at the C1 segment of the ipsilateral internal carotid artery (ICA) to temporarily halt antegrade flow. The protocol comprised 4 cycles of 60-s balloon inflations and 60-s deflations.

Direct Ischemic Conditioning initiated within 5 minutes post-revascularization using either a balloon guiding catheter or a balloon catheter, positioned at the C1 segment of the ipsilateral internal carotid artery (ICA) to temporarily halt antegrade flow. The protocol comprised 3 cycles of 120-s balloon inflations and 120-s deflations.
