While predictors of 90-day functional outcome are well-established, the determinants of functional recovery remain less clearly defined in the post-discharge period for patients with initial disability. We aimed to identify the predictors of functional outcome at 3\u00a0months in patients who underwent EVT and were discharged with an unmet need for recovery (modified Rankin scale (mRS) score\u2009&gt;\u20092).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A multi-center, observational cohort study was conducted using data from the Big Data Observatory Platform for Stroke in China. We included 836 patients from eight comprehensive stroke centers (August 2018 \u2013 December 2024) who received EVT, had a pre-stroke mRS of 0\u20132, and had an mRS\u2009&gt;\u20092 at discharge. The primary outcome was functional outcome at 3\u00a0months post-EVT, defined as an mRS score of 0\u20132.

In univariate analysis, the favorable outcome group was significantly younger, had a lower pre-EVT NIHSS, a lower rate of atrial fibrillation, a higher rate of intravenous thrombolysis, a higher rate of complete recanalization (mTICI 3), and a lower rate of parenchymal hematoma (PH) (all\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.05).
