E-006 U.S. health care system-wide transition from alteplase to tenecteplase before mechanical thrombectomy: functional outcomes, early reperfusion rates, intracranial bleeding and femoral access site complications

ConclusionsThe first-year experience demonstrates the effectiveness and safety of the transitioning from TPA to TNK. The higher early recanalization rates with TNK are striking. Additional studies are required to investigate whether TNK is superior to TPA in the setting of LVO stroke.Disclosures M. Collins: None. C. Schirmer: None. G. Weiner: None. O. Goren: None. I.
