About this trial

Dexmedetomidine can attenuate the activity of the sympathetic nervous system under stress response and improve ischemia-reperfusion injury. The investigators hypothesized that the prolonged sedation of dexmedetomidine after successful reperfusion of endovascular thrombectomy may improve the clinical outcome of acute ischemic stroke patients.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

2≤NIHSS≤25

mRS score before stroke was less than 3

Acute ischemic stroke (including anterior circulation)

mTICI rate 2b or 3

Disqualifiers

Intracerebral hemorrhage occurred in the responsible vessel area in the past 6 weeks

Patients who had received stent treatment at the responsible vessel in the past

Neurological function was restored at or before angiography

Patients who are allergic to heparin, aspirin, clopidogrel, rapamycin, lactic acid polymer, poly (n-butyl methacrylate), stainless steel, anesthetics and contrast agents or have contraindications

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

The favorable functional outcome of stroke-related disability rate

Modified Rankin Scale ≤ 2 points. mRS range from 0 to 6, higher scores mean a worse outcome.

Time frame
90 ± 14 days after thrombectomy

Secondary outcomes

1

Changes of National Institute of Health stroke scale

NIHSS (admission) - NIHSS (24h)

Time frame
24 ± 6 hours after thrombectomy
2

Changes of National Institute of Health stroke scale

NIHSS (admission) - NIHSS (7day)

Time frame
on the 7-day or discharged day whichever comes first, up to 30 days
3

Changes of ischemic penumbra

The difference of infarct volume between preoperative and 7-day or discharged day

Time frame
on the 7-day or discharged day whichever comes first, up to 30 days
4

Length of ICU stay

Length of ICU stay

Time frame
From the date of admission until discharged from ICU, up to 30 days
