Background: In STREAM-1 (Strategic Reperfusion Early After Myocardial Infarction), excess intracranial hemorrhage occurred in patients aged ≥75 years receiving full-dose tenecteplase as part of a pharmaco-invasive strategy, whereas no further intracranial hemorrhage occurred after halving the tenecteplase dose. In STREAM-2 (Second Strategic Reperfusion Early After Myocardial Infarction), half-dose tenecteplase was an effective and safe pharmaco-invasive strategy in older patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction presenting within <3 hours, compared with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We prespecified evaluating the efficacy and safety of a half-dose versus full-dose pharmaco-invasive strategy and compared the half-dose pharmaco-invasive strategy to primary PCI in patients aged ≥75 years.

Objective: Pharmacologic thrombolytic treatment for acute ischemic stroke has primarily been managed by intravenous alteplase. Tenecteplase is a variant that has been shown to be non-inferior to alteplase in clinical trials. In this study, we present a real-world assessment of patient outcomes with the facility-wide transition to the use of tenecteplase versus altepase for acute ischemic stroke in a large system of community hospitals in the United States.

Background: Tenecteplase is increasingly used off-label as an alternative to alteplase for ischemic stroke thrombolysis. Our aim was to evaluate the safety of tenecteplase versus alteplase in comprehensive real-world data.
Methods: We compared the outcomes for adult patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with alteplase or tenecteplase, registered in the Swedish Stroke Register between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2020.

Purpose: To describe the visual acuity (VA) outcomes from a telemedicine-enabled pathway allowing for rapid diagnosis and administration of intravenous (IV) thrombolytic treatment for non-arteritic central retinal artery occlusion (naCRAO) within 4.5 hours (4.5 h) of visual loss.
