We hypothesized that a favorable vascular profile (FVP) defined as anatomic intactness of the Circle of Willis combined with a stable cerebral perfusion pressure (mean arterial blood pressure>65 mm Hg) is a prerequisite for collateral recruitment and maintenance and may improve outcome. We performed post hoc analyses of a subset of the Safety and Efficacy of NeuroFlo Technology in Ischemic Stroke (SENTIS) trial data set to identify whether FVP is associated with independent outcome.
