Thrombolysis for acute ischaemic stroke

TL;DR: Thrombolytic therapy, mostly administered up to six hours after ischaemic stroke, significantly reduced the proportion of participants who were dead or dependent at three to six months after stroke and increased the risk of symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage.

Recombinant tissue plasminogen activator for acute ischaemic stroke: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis

TL;DR: The evidence indicates that intravenous rt-PA increased the proportion of patients who were alive with favourable outcome and alive and independent at final follow-up, which strengthens previous evidence to treat patients as early as possible after acute ischaemic stroke, although some patients might benefit up to 6 h after stroke.
