Outcome of stroke patients receiving different doses of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator

TL;DR: Whether 0.7 and 0.8 mg/kg of tPA have higher ENI rate, lower END rate, and better outcome at 6 months, and whether low-dose tPA has a lower risk of intracerebral HT than that with standard- dose tPA is investigated.

Increased use of thrombolytic therapy and shortening of in-hospital delays following acute ischemic stroke: experience on the establishment of a primary stroke center at a community hospital.

TL;DR: The establishment of the PSC significantly increases the usage of tPA treatment and response time to patient cases was also quicker, however, the public still needs to be made more aware of the risks of stroke and the importance of seeking medical care at the first signs of stroke.
