1. Only a ischemic stroke (blockage of blood to the brain) would receive tPa (the drug not mentioned).

2. A ct (cat scan) needs to be done to prove bleed vs. blockage.

3. tPa can only be given within the first 3 hours of an event to be of any use.


Just wanted to mention these 3 things (to be accurate). Justsayin!
