Effectiveness of t-PA in acute ischemic stroke: outcome relates to appropriateness.

Effectiveness of t-PA in acute ischemic stroke: outcome relates to appropriateness.

OBJECTIVE: To examine whether the demonstrated efficacy of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) for acute ischemic stroke can be effective in a community setting. METHODS: Sixty-eight consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with IV t-PA within 3 hours of symptom onset by attendin...
