CANVAS: Impact of Anesthesia Type on Outcome in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) Undergoing Endovascular Treatment
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Recent observational studies have found an association between general anaesthesia and increased post-operative mortality in acute ischemic stroke patients undergoing endovascular treatment. It is unknown whether there is a causal relationship in this observation. The investigators are performing a large randomised trial of general versus local anaesthesia to definitively answer the question of whether anaesthetic type alters perioperative outcome.
