Summary

Ischemic stroke is a major health burden globally and in Australia. Treatment for ischemic stroke is time critical and is significantly more effective if administered within the first 90 minutes of symptom onset. This clinical trial will identify if early administration of oral thrombolytic agent, tenecteplase prior to hospital can improve outcomes from stroke, and reduce costs compared to standard care of IV alteplase in hospital
