OUT Q=serious conditions.
(( Many strokes result when blood can't get to a portion of the brain
because of a clogged arterty.
According to the new guidelines, TPA works best when given within three
hours of the onset of stroke symptoms.
But before treatment is given, patients should be evaluated by a
neurologist and have a C-T- scan to confirm the actual brain attack.
Patients who should not receive T-P-A include those with heart disease
who take blood thinners, and patients whose brains already show damage from the
strokes.
80-percent of strokes are of the type that might benefit from T-P-A.
You might love your family physicians, but according to a Harvard Medical
School survey, primary care physicians get the cold shoulder from their more
specialized peers.
Less than half felt that a generalist-- those in internal medicine
pediatrics, or family practice, could provide care for serious conditions.))
