Intensive blood pressure managementConventional blood pressure management

Intensive blood pressure management: The objective is to achieve a systolic blood pressure (SBP) \<120 mmHg within 1 hour after randomization and maintain this target for 48 hours. Intravenous titration is initiated immediately after randomization, with an SBP of 100 mmHg used as the threshold for discontinuing antihypertensive therapy or initiating vasopressors.

Conventional blood pressure management: The objective is to maintain an SBP of 140-180 mmHg within 1 hour after randomization and sustain this range for 48 hours. Intravenous antihypertensive agents are administered when SBP exceeds 180 mmHg and discontinued once SBP is ≤150 mmHg.

Study summary

This clinical trial aims to investigate the safety and efficacy of intensive blood pressure lowering after successful reperfusion with thrombectomy in patients with acute anterior circulation large artery occlusive stroke. The main questions it aims to answer are:

What is the optimal blood pressure range after revascularization with thrombectomy in patients with cerebral embolism? Can intensive blood pressure lowering improve outcomes in cerebral embolism patients following thrombectomy?

Participants will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group, which receives stricter blood pressure control (systolic blood pressure target \<120 mmHg), or the control group, which follows a conventional blood pressure management approach (systolic blood pressure target 140-180 mmHg). Outcomes will be assessed during a 3-month follow-up period.
