  11. Recent Responses

  12. tPA Use Facts • tPA has been shown to be effective • tPA can be used clinically with success in the care of stroke patients • Patients and society expect tPA use • Clinicians remain divided Re: tPA use • The ASA has now forced our hands • We must lead efforts Re: use of tPA in the 3-4.5 hour window

  13. This Educational Session • This introduction and perspective • E Bradshaw Bunney, MD: The 3-4.5 hour window tPA data • Panel discussion: • What do we think? • What should we do in our systems? • What are the best clinical options?

  17. Systems Questions • What must be done in our institutions in order to implement the ASA recommendations? • What are some unique approaches to the use of tPA in the 3 -4.5 hour window? • How should we continue to educate in order to optimize stroke patient care and EM clinical practice?

  18. Unanswered Questions • Up to 3 hours: tPA first, then interventional radiology techniques • In the 3 -4.5 hour window, what is the best approach? • Has anything changed significantly? • Where do we go from here?
