Abstract
Results: A total of 146 cases were included. Of the 65 positive ELVO screen cases, 33 (51%) had large vessel occlusion (LVO). Of the 81 negative ELVO screen cases, 11 (14%) had LVO (sensitivity, 75%; specificity, 69%; positive predictive value, 51%; negative predictive value, 86%; accuracy, 71%; P <0.001). Among LVO cases, 16 of the 33 (48%) positive ELVO screen cases and 2 of the 11 (18%) negative ELVO screen cases were treated by EVT. Complications of atrial fibrillation were significantly more common in positive ELVO screen cases (P = 0.001). EVT was carried out in nearly half of the positive ELVO screen cases of atrial fibrillation, being a significantly higher rate (10 of 24 cases, 42%; P = 0.02).
