Determining the optimal target blood pressure after thrombectomy: High or low?

2017 
The management of patients with acute ischemic stroke has changed dramatically with modern mechanical thrombectomy (MT) techniques and improved patient selection using CT angiography.1 Although the benefit of early recanalization in large vessel occlusion (LVO) seems clear, the optimal periprocedural management remains uncertain. Unresolved issues include the method of analgesia and sedation, reversal and application of adjunctive periprocedural anticoagulation, glycemic control, ventilatory management, and perhaps most important, blood pressure (BP) control.
