Outcomes of Spoke-Retained Telestroke Patients Versus Hub-Treated Patients After Intravenous Thrombolysis: Telestroke Patient Outcomes After Thrombolysis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The outcomes of patients remaining at a community spoke hospital after tissue-type plasminogen activator treatment via telemedicine are unclear. Our aim was to compare medical outcomes between these patients and those treated at a hub stroke center.

There has been debates whether it is safe to use recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) in patients with cardiac myxoma who are presented with ischemic stroke at emergency department. we describe a young case of atrial myxoma with initial presentation of acute cerebral infarction symptoms who was treate...

متن کاملNovel Telestroke Program Improves Thrombolysis for Acute Stroke Across 21 Hospitals of an Integrated Healthcare System
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Faster treatment with intravenous alteplase in acute ischemic stroke is associated with better outcomes. Starting in 2015, Kaiser Permanente Northern California redesigned its acute stroke workflow across all 21 Kaiser Permanente Northern California stroke centers to (1) follow a single standardized version of a modified Helsinki model and (2) have all emergency stroke ca...
متن کاملTrials of Thrombolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Background and Purpose—Controversy regarding the risks and benefits of thrombolysis has not been helped by the perception that some trials were “positive” and others “negative” on their primary outcome measure of either “good” or “poor” functional outcome. We wondered whether the definition of good or poor functional outcome might have contributed to this perception, and what effect altering th...
