Prediction of Hyperperfusion After Carotid Stenting by Multi-parameter Characteristics Based on Cerebral Autoregulation

Официальное название

A Controlled Clinical Study of Prediction of Cerebral Hyperperfusion Syndrome After Carotid Artery Stenting by Using Multi-parameter Characteristics Based on Cerebral Autoregulation

Обзор

Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) is one of the severe complication after carotid artery stenting with a high mortality rate. CHS was defined as cerebral hyperperfusion (CH) with clinical symptoms such as unilateral headache, convulsions, hemiparesis/hemiplegia, visual disturbances, ataxia, aphasia, while CH could be a disastrous outcome causing complication after carotid revascularization if not managed properly and timely. This is a single-center prospective cohort study to investigate the risks of CH after carotid artery stenting. All patients with severe carotid artery stenosis underwent carotid arterial ultrasonography and dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA) test by transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) before operation. The postoperative carotid ultrasound and transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) results are also needed. The investigators will collect this test data at 48h, 1 month and 3months after carotid artery stenting（CAS）. According to the examination results, they were divided into two groups: CH group and non-CH group. The investigators will collect data before CAS, on all participants' age, sex, heart rate, BP and end-tidal carbon dioxide (ET-CO2) and the following information from the patients : (i)demographic data, such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, smoking and body mass index; (ii) relevant clinical symptoms; (iii) preoperative colour Doppler ultrasonography（CDU）and transcranial Doppler sonography(TCD) results; (iv) The cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) of the middle cerebral artery（MCA） induced will be measured by non-invasively and continuously dCA test. This study could be aimed to analyze the factors influencing cerebral hyperperfusion after CAS. The purpose of this study will be to perform more precise risk stratification for high-risk CH patients and improve the quality of life of them. Statistical Analysis The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences（SPSS）software Version 26.0 (IBM, New York, USA) will be used for statistical analyses. The indicators with P \< 0.2 in the univariate analysis will be entered into a logistic regression analysis to investigate the independent risk factors for CH after CAS. All tests will be performed two sided, and a P \< 0.05 will be considered statistically significant.

Подробное описание

1. To analysis the incidence of postoperative complications such as CH and CHS within 1 months and to find the risk factors of CH.

A. To enroll 400 cases of patients suffering from carotid artery stenosis. the investigators perform TCD on patients by Sonographer for identifying CH.

B. Postoperative CH will be defined in patients whose MCA mean velocity increased by more than 100% within 48 hour after carotid artery stent.

C. CH and CHS mostly occurs within one week after CAS. Although there are a few reports of CHS occurring from three weeks to four weeks after CAS.

D. All tests are non-invasive. 2. The diagnosis of CHS will be based on the following criteria:

A. The appearance of symptoms within 1 month after surgery.

B. First-time unilateral headache, convulsions, hemiparesis/hemiplegia, visual disturbances, ataxia, aphasia, signs of cerebral edema or intracerebral hemorrhage.

C. Increase in cerebral blood flow in the middle cerebral artery \> 100% compared to the preoperative value measured by transcranial dopplerography.

D. Hypertensive encephalopathy, reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome and reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome are excluded. 3. The parameter of ultrasonic measurement

A. The CDU before CAS about plaque imaging and other parameters will be stored in Statistical Package for the Social Sciences （PACS）and analyzed later.

B.The TCD peri-CAS will be used to detect main intracranial arteries, the peak systolic velocity（PSV）, end-diastolic velocity（EDV）and PI of bilateral MCA will be recorded.

C.The post-CAS imaging and parameters included the characteristics of stent and hemodynamic parameters by CDU and TCD.

Вмешательства

• Процедура carotid artery stenting
  The procedures will be performed for patients with general or local anesthesia. Implantation of stents at the site of carotid artery stenosis for the treatment of carotid severe stenosis. A suitable balloon will be selected based on the internal carotid arterial（ICA）diameter, as shown on the digital subtraction angiography（DSA）image. The use of a balloon for predilatation or postdilatation depends on the degree of stenosis. The type of stent will be selected according to several factors, such as
