Mechanical Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke: Final Results of the Multi MERCI Trial
Stroke 39:1205-1212, Smith,W.S.,et al, 2008
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Higher rates of recanalization were associated with a newer generation thrombectomy device compared with first-generation devices, but these differences did not achieve statistical significance. Mortality trended lower and the proportion of good clinical outcomes trended higher, consistent with better recanalization.
