STRAIT Study:

Balloon Guide Catheter for Endovascular Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke
BOBBY™ Balloon Guide Catheter

STRAIT Study demonstrates that "Mechanical thrombectomy using BOBBY BGC demonstrates high rates of FPE and overall success with a good safety profile, supporting the additional benefit of the new generation BGCs in interventional stroke treatment."

Design

Single arm prospective

Scope

Patients 18-85 y.o. presenting with an acute ischemic stroke from LVO in the anterior cerebral circulation that can be treated within 8 hrs from AIS symptom onset, Aspect ≥ 6 and NIHSS ≥ 5. Those eligible to be treated with BOBBY device adjunctive to SR and/or aspiration (If 6Fr aspiration, a SOFIA™ PLUS will be used).

Purpose

To evaluate the safety and performance of the mechanical thrombectomy with the use of a BOBBY™ balloon guide catheter (BGC) in patients suffering an acute ischemic stroke in the anterior circulation.

Endpoints

Proportion of patients with vascular recanalization defined as mTICI≥2b per Core Lab evaluation

Efficacy results

  • Successful recanalization (mTICI 2b-3): 94.7%

  • Near complete reperfusion (mTICI 2c-3): 75.9%

  • Modified first pass effect (mFPE): 63.1%

Safety results

At 24 hrs:

  • Embolization in new territory (ENT): 5.4%

  • sICH: 0%

  • Any hemorrhage: 32%

At 90 days:

  • Mortality: 8.2%

  • Good functional outcome (mRS 0-2 or equal to pre-stroke): 65.2%

  • Excellent functional outcome (mRS 0-1 or equal to pre-stroke): 53.7%
