AB  - Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) combined with intravenous thrombolysis is the current standard treatment for acute large-vessel occlusion stroke. Beyond clear clinical benefits in the acute and post-acute phases, comprehensive evaluations of long-term outcomes, including home and workforce reintegration, remain limited. This study aimed to assess home and workforce reintegration 1 year post-EVT in a cohort of acute stroke patients and explore their association with health-related quality of life (HRQoL).We conducted a prospective observational study of 404 patients undergoing EVT at a tertiary university medical center between October 2019 and December 2021. Patients' functional outcomes were evaluated using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS), and HRQoL was assessed via the European Quality of Life Five Dimension Scale (EQ-5D). Data on occupational and living status were collected through standardized telephone interviews at 3- and 12-months post-treatment.Of 357 patients with 12-month follow-up data, 33.6
