DOI: 10.1161/JAHA.117.007983), the errors occurred. On page 6, in Table 3, the last column, all P‐Values with >0.001 were corrected to <0.001. On page 8, in Figure 3, the graphs for A and B were the same. The corrected Table 3 and Figure 3, containing the correct graph for B, are presented below.Download figureDownload PowerPointFigure 3 Multivariable regression analysis. Association of the time interval (as a continuous variable) between the neurologic index event and CAS on (A) the risk of any stroke or death (P=0.019), (B) any major stroke or death (P=0.080), and (C) all cause death (P=0.115). A relative risk of 1 corresponds to the average relative risk of all patients. Adjusted for age, sex, ASA status, type of index event, degree of ipsi‐ and contralateral stenosis, periprocedural antiplatelet therapy, pre‐ and postprocedural neurologic assessment, intraprocedural neuromonitoring, stent design, type of stent, use of an embolic protection system, annual center volume, and hospital site code. ASA indicates American Society of Anesthesiologists score; CAS, carotid artery stenting; CI, confidence interval; RR, relative risk.The authors regrets the errors.The online version of the article has been updated and is available at http://jaha.ahajournals.org/content/7/7/e007983.Table 3 Postinterventional Neurologic, Cardiac, or Local ComplicationsNumber of Events Until DischargeTotalTime Interval Between Index Event and CASP ValueN=47170 to 2 Days n=550 (11.6%)3 to 7 Days n=1579 (33.4%)8 to 14 Days n=1244 (26.3%)15 to 180 Days n=1344 (28.4%)Any stroke or death, n (%)173 (3.7)33 (6.0)70 (4.4)30 (2.4)40 (3.0)<0.001Any major stroke or death, n (%)117 (2.5)26 (4.7)46 (2.9)18 (1.4)27 (2.0)<0.001Stroke, n (%)129 (2.7)21 (3.8)56 (3.5)22 (1.8)30 (2.2)0.007Major stroke (mRS 3‐5)73 (1.5)14 (2.5)32 (2.0)10 (0.8)17 (1.3)0.011Minor stroke (mRS 0‐2)56 (1.2)7 (1.3)24 (1.5)12 (1.0)13 (1.0)0.457Death, n (%)44 (0.9)12 (2.2)14 (0.9)8 (0.6)10 (0.7)0.012Occlusion, n (%)5 (0.1)0 (0)2 (0.1)2 (0.2)1 (0.1)0.771Local complications at puncture site, n (%)Severe bleeding or hematoma31 (1.0)5 (1.4)6 (0.6)7 (0.9)13 (1.5)0.177Aneurysm22 (0.7)6 (1.6)7 (0.6)3 (0.4)6 (0.7)0.115AV fistula2 (0.1)0 (0)1 (0.1)0 (0)1 (0.1)0.741Any general complication, n (%)145 (3.1)33 (6.0)41 (2.6)35 (2.8)36 (2.7)<0.001Myocardial infarctiona3/3185 (0.1)1/373 (0.3)1/1094 (0.1)0/830 (0)1/888 (0.1)0.569AV indicates atrioventricular; CAS, carotid artery stenting; mRS, modified Rankin scale; n, patients with feature or property; N, all patients with information available.aOnly available for 2013‐2014.Footnotes Previous Back to top Next FiguresReferencesRelatedDetailsRelated articlesRisk of Stroke or Death Is Associated With the Timing of Carotid Artery Stenting for Symptomatic Carotid Stenosis: A Secondary Data Analysis of the German Statutory Quality Assurance DatabasePavlos Tsantilas, et al.
