Emergency Medicine Physicians Accurately Select Acute Stroke Patients for Tissue-Type Plasminogen Activator Treatment Using a Checklist
Stroke 51:663-665, Berekashvili, K.,et al, 2020
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Our data suggest that with the aid of a checklist, EMRs can accurately treat stroke patients with tPA. Areas for improvement include recognition of stroke mimics. Further studies are warranted to evaluate checklist-enhanced tPA treatment to allay emergency medicine physician uncertainty and expand the use of tPA.
