    Acute heart failure (AHF) is a serious complication following endovascular treatment (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO).

  • 2

    The study identified five independent predictors of AHF after EVT: atrial fibrillation, valvular heart disease, left ventricular ejection fraction, serum creatinine, and troponin T.

  • 3

    A nomogram was developed and validated, demonstrating excellent discriminative ability with an AUC of 0.909 in the validation cohort.

  • 4

    Calibration curves indicated good agreement between predicted and observed risks of AHF following EVT in patients with AIS-LVO.

  • 5

    The study emphasizes the importance of early identification of AHF risk in AIS-LVO patients to improve overall patient outcomes.
