Stroke Facts - 2 nd lead cause of death worldwide - 5 th leading cause of death in the US - Leading cause of preventable disability - 795,000 have a stroke every year - Someone in the US has a stroke every 40 seconds - Stroke kills nearly 129,000 people a year - Stroke kills more women than breast, ovarian, uterine, and cervical cancer combined!
Types of Strokes http://floydmemorial.com/healthscope/understanding-stroke-the-basics/ http://www.mayfieldclinic.com/pe-stroke.htm
Sytemic Local IV tpa Chemical Thrombolysis Dose: 0.9 mg/kg (maximum of 90 mg) infused over 60 min 10% of the total dose administered as bolus over 1 minute. IA tpa Plasminogen activators catalyze the conversion of plasminogen to the fibrinloytic compound plasmin
Timing of Recanalization with IV tpa measured by Transcranial Doppler 30-45 minutes to recanalization
Realities of IV tpa for Stroke Scientifically well established, safe, improves outcome Under-utilized (time constraints) Less than 5 % of stroke patients receive IV TPA Most patients present beyond 4.5 hours Window = 3-4.5 hours Largely ineffective for large vessel occlusions (LVO) Only 14% of ICA occlusions and 55% of MCA occlusions recanalize with IV tpa at 24 hrs Among patients with LVOs, 60-80% die within 90 days or do not regain functional independence despite IV tpa Rha et al, Stroke, 2007 Broderick et al, NEJM, 2013 Berkhemer et al, NEJM, 2015

Amount of dead grass depends on how long the blockage has been there Main Line http://agentkristin.blogspot.com/2013/06/garden-irrigation-design.html If the blockage is reversed before The grass cells die, then the grass Returns green. If the grass is dead, without water too long You have to re-seed it. (Can t do that with the brain)
