Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The MOSES Registry will be a database of imaging and clinical stroke data of ischaemic stroke patients receiving thrombectomy. All clinical and imaging data is acquired as part of standard routine clinical practice. The imaging that will be uploaded, include:
- Pretreatment imaging (within 24 hours of stroke onset).
- Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) prior and post thrombectomy.
-Follow-up imaging (24-48 hours), in which may include Non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT)+/- computed tomography angiography (CTA) +/- computed tomography perfusion (CTP) and/or Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
- Any additional imaging during acute hospital admission (e.g., if there is a clinical deterioration).
Patients will be followed up at three-months, either face-to-face during out patient follow-up or via telephone. This includes Modified Rankin Scale and the EQ-5D-5L (quality of life).

Statistical methods / analysis
Sample:
Development of a predictive model of patient outcome is based on both a set of predefined statistical hypotheses, and on the statistical considerations of model accuracy and fit. We will be using all our data for the purposes of model development and validation. It is proposed that a single predictive model will be sufficient to address the questions posed by the MOSES study by the development of a derivation and validation cohort. The pre-specified predictors that correspond to the individual research questions above which are to be included in the model development are: baseline ischemic core volume, vessel occlusion location, collateral status, patient age and premorbid health status measured by the modified Rankin score.
In the model derivation cohort, recruiting 1565 subjects would yield 80% power to detect the difference of 5% in probability of a positive outcome when the specified predictor is at the mean and at one standard deviation above the mean (for the most conservative case of the probability of 0.5), assuming the squared multiple correlation between the predictor variable and all other variables in the model of 0.6 and two-tailed significance level of 0.05. This estimation is conservative in the sense that both the probabilities that are different to 0.5 and squared multiple correlation lower than 0.6 may require smaller sample sizes. This analysis was conducted using Stata command powerlog with the options of p1=0.5, p2=0.55, R squared=0.6, and p=0.05.
The resulting predictive models will be incorporated into an imaging and clinical decision support tool that will be externally validated on 500 patients. Assuming the standard settings of Type I error alpha = 0.05, recruiting 500 patients will yield 0.9 power to observe an almost perfect agreement between the proposed method and the gold standard (kappa of 0.8 or higher) against the null hypothesis of substantial agreement (kappa of 0.6). The resulting sample size is therefore 2065.

Statistical analysis:
Using the data from the MOSES study, we will utilize a combination of contemporary statistical, machine learning, and simulation techniques (logistic regression analyses, classification and regression trees, support vector machines, Bayesian classifiers, embedded in an agent- based simulation models) that have not yet been used in this domain, to design a predictive model to estimate patient outcome from thrombectomy. There will also be a detailed health economics evaluation. Cost will be calculated using ‘pathway analysis’ with full specification of the thrombectomy procedure pathway (including cost of transfers, consumables and treatment of complications following the procedure, utilisation of critical care and ward beds), post- discharge care up to 3 months (including use of nursing home beds, informal care, home-based support services etc.) and productivity costs (arising from inability to return to work).
