%X Predicting functional outcomes following endovascular treatment (EVT) for large-vessel occlusion stroke (LVOS) is challenging. Some patients achieve functional independence (modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0 -2) at 90 days despite being dependent at discharge, termed delayed functional independence (DFI), while others lose independence after discharge, termed delayed functional dependence (DFD). This study explores patterns and predictors of DFI and DFD in LVOS patients undergoing EVT.We analyzed anterior circulation LVOS patients from the prospective multicenter German Stroke Registry. Multivariable logistic regression models identified independent predictors of DFI and DFD.Of 5909 patients, 2346 were independent at discharge, with 16.1
