Patient refusal of thrombolytic therapy for suspected acute ischemic stroke
Monday, 19 November, 2012
The objective of this study Patient refusal of thrombolytic therapy for suspected acute ischemic stroke published online in IJS, was to determine factors associated with patients refusing IV t-PA for suspected acute ischemic stroke and then compare outcomes of patients who refused t-PA and those who were treated with t-PA. I spoke to authors DR Farhaan Vahidy, and DR Sean Savitz from the University of Texas Medical School-Houston and UT Health about this novel paper and interesting findings.
