Thrombectomy fot stroke at 6 to 16 hours

Clinical Question

In patients with proximal internal carotid (ICA) or middle cerebral artery
(MCA) occlusion with likely salvageable ischaemic brain tissue, does
thrombectomy, at 6-16 hours post ischaemic stroke, in addition to medical
therapy, compared to medical therapy alone, improve functional outcome at
90 days?
