Abstract

Introduction Cerebral Venous Thrombosis (CVT) is a rare cerebrovascular condition causing death or functional dependency in 10‐15%. Although Endovascular Therapy (EVT) is deployed variably across centers for managing CVT, the determinants and consequences of such use remain under‐explored. We examined the demographic and clinical correlates of EVT use in CVT and assessed its impact on patient outcomes utilizing a national database. Methods We identified CVT cases from 2015 to 2020 in the National Inpatient Sample, with EVT as the primary exposure. CVT and other diagnoses, and EVT and other procedures, were identified using standard ICD 10 codes. A backward stepwise regression model (at p
