Choice of Anesthesia for Endovascular Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke in Posterior Circulation — CANVAS-II  

Posterior Circulation Brain Infarction Clinical Trial

Official title: Choice of Anesthesia for Endovascular Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke in Posterior Circulation: a Randomized Controlled Exploratory Study (CANVAS-Ⅱ)

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

There is few randomized controlled clinical to investigated the impact of anesthetic type on outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke in posterior cerebral circulation. It is unknown whether the choice of anesthesia is impacted on the outcomes for these patients or not. The investigators will perform a randomized controlled pilot clinical trial of general anesthesia versus local anesthesia/conscious sedation to explore and find out a potential fact whether anesthetic type alters perioperative neurological function in patients with acute ischemic stroke in posterior cerebral circulation.
