Abstract
There was no difference with respect to affected hemisphere in time to presentation to the emergency department. Furthermore, there was no difference in the rate of IV t-PA administration for patients with RHS versus LHS. This finding is in contrast to previous research on IV t-PA use in hemispheric stroke and may reflect improved recognition of right hemispheric syndromes.
