Background: Acute ischemic stroke due to basilar artery occlusion (BAO) is associated with the highest mortality in patients with large vessel occlusion. This study aimed to identify modifiable risk factors of early mortality in patients with BAO. Methods and Results: This was a cohort study of consecutive patients with BAO admitted to 47 stroke centers in China between January 2014 and May 2019. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality within 7 days after hospitalization. Of 829 patients, 164 died (0-3 days: 115; 4-7 days: 49) within 7 days after hospitalization. Among pre- and periprocedural variables, higher admission National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS, adjusted OR, 1.06, 95% CI: 1.04-1.09; p < 0.001), lower admission posterior circulation-Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score (pc-ASPECTS, adjusted OR, 0.88, 95% CI: 0.79-0.98; p = 0.02), lower Basilar Artery on Computed Tomography Angiography score (BATMAN, adjusted OR, 0.84, 95% CI: 0.76-0.93; p = 0.001), and recanalization failure (adjusted OR, 2.99, 95% CI: 2.04-4.38; p < 0.001) were independently associated with a higher risk of early mortality. Herniation (adjusted OR, 2.84, 95% CI: 1.52-5.30; p = 0.001) is an independent postprocedural predictor of early mortality. In patients dying <= 3 days, higher NIHSS (p < 0.001), lower pc-ASPECTS (p = 0.01), lower BATMAN (p = 0.004), recanalization failure (p < 0.001), herniation (p = 0.001), gastrointestinal hemorrhage (p = 0.046), and absence of pneumonia (p < 0.001) were independent predictors of early mortality. Higher NIHSS (p = 0.01), recanalization failure (p < 0.001), and pneumonia (p = 0.03) were independently associated with early mortality between 4 and 7 days. Conclusions: Recanalization failure, herniation, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and pneumonia are potentially modifiable risk factors for early mortality in basilar artery occlusion.
