The proportion of patients with excellent outcome
Excellent outcome defined as a modified Rankin scale (mRS) score ≤ 1 (scores ranged from 0 to 6, with 0 to 1 indicating no disability, 2 to 5 indicating increasing disability, and 6 indicating death).
Time frame: 90 days after randomization
Distribution of the modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores
Modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores ranged from 0 to 6, with 0 to 1 indicating no disability, 2 to 5 indicating increasing disability, and 6 indicating death.
Time frame: 30 days after randomization

The proportion of patients with poor quality of life
Poor quality of life defined as EuroQol Five Dimensions Questionnaire (EQ-D5) index score ≤0.5. The EQ-5D index score is measured on a scale of 0 (death) to 1 (full health).
