Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • age \> 18, both sexes, acute ischemic stroke within 4.5 hours, NIHSS (5-25)

Exclusion

  • Significant head trauma or prior stroke in the previous 3 months
  • Symptoms suggest subarachnoid hemorrhage
  • Arterial puncture at a noncompressible site in previous 7 days
  • History of previous intracranial hemorrhage
  • Intracranial neoplasm, AVM, or an aneurysm
  • Recent intracranial or intraspinal surgery
  • Elevated blood pressure (systolic greater than 185 mmHg or diastolic greater than 110 mmHg)
  • Active internal bleeding
  • Acute bleeding diathesis, including but not limited to
  • Platelet count less than 100 000/mm\^3
  • Heparin received within 48 hours resulting in abnormally elevated aPTT above the upper limit of normal
  • Current use of anticoagulant with INR greater than 1.7 or PT greater than 15 seconds
  • Current use of direct thrombin inhibitors or direct factor Xa inhibitors with elevated sensitive laboratory tests (e.g., aPTT, INR, platelet count, ECT, TT, or appropriate factor Xa activity assays)
  • Blood glucose concentration less than 50 mg/dL (2.7 mmol/L)
  • CT demonstrates multilobar infarction (hypodensity greater than a one-third cerebral hemisphere) Relative Exclusion Criteria
  • Recent experience suggests that under some circumstances, with careful consideration and weighing of risk to benefit, patients may receive fibrinolytic therapy despite 1 or more relative contraindications. Consider the risk to the benefit of intravenous rtPA administration carefully if any of these relative contraindications are present:
  • Only minor or quickly improving stroke symptoms (clearing automatically)
  • Pregnancy
  • Seizure at the onset with postictal residual neurological impairments
  • Major surgery or serious trauma within prior 14 days
  • Recent GI or urinary tract hemorrhage (within previous 21 days)
