Immediate Recanalization of Large‐Vessel Occlusions by Tissue Plasminogen Activator Occurs in 28% of Patients Treated in a Mobile Stroke Unit

Immediate Recanalization of Large‐Vessel Occlusions by Tissue Plasminogen Activator Occurs in 28% of Patients Treated in a Mobile Stroke Unit

Background Recanalization of cerebral large‐vessel occlusions (LVOs) by intravenous thrombolysis is infrequent but has been relatively unexplored with ultraearly treatment. We evaluated prehospital treatment with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) in a mobile stroke unit to explore the recanalizatio...
