Recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) utilisation by rural clinicians in acute ischaemic stroke: An audit of current practice and clinical outcomes.
CONCLUSION: Recombinant tissue plasminogen activator can be delivered in rural Australian hospitals in a timely manner within recommended implementation guidelines. Acute stroke thrombolytic services in rural Australian facilities had comparable outcomes to metropolitan facilities. Small numbers of thrombolysed patients prevented a validation study of the well-defined outcome benefits from rt-PA. The need for ongoing data collection in regional settings is supported.
