I think that there are SBP targets for different repercussion scenarios that make sense. For a typical thrombectomy, I think recent data suggests that a parameter of less than 180 is reasonable, especially for TICI 2b bc you may still want a bit higher BP to perfuse an ischemic area. If I’m doing this for a large core infarction, then I prefer less than 160 because the risk of hemorrhagic transformation is higher to a larger volume infarction. If I am opening up a critical stenosis or occlusion ...
