Résumé

Practitioners are faced with a substantial challenge when considering recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) therapy for older patients with ischemic stroke. Patients aged over 80 years suffer from the most severe cerebral infarcts. The benefit of rt-PA treatment compared with single standard care only in stroke units remains to be clearly assessed.
