This CME activity is based on the slides and lectures presented by the faculty at the symposium, Risky Business: Organizing Stroke Care for Optimal Outcomes, on October 16, 2011, at the Hilton San Francisco Union Square, San Francisco, California.
You can register on theheart.org and view this educational presentation. It confirmed my earlier finding that tPA only works 31% of the time. No discussion on where to go from here. The third presenter talks about delayed reperfusion and 5 day later scans showing dead tissue, that would be the final result of what I call the neuronal cascade of death. Lots of improvements needed.
