Question

which patients are not a candidate for tissue plasminogen activator (tpa) for the treatment of stroke? select all that apply

Answer 1

The patient having blood pressure 200/110 are not the candidate for tissue plasminogen activator for the treatment of stroke.

What is stroke and why patients with high blood pressure are not a candidate of TPA?

1. Stroke is the sudden block in the pathway of blood or the extreme blood pressure difference leading to heart attack.
2. Here the patient is trying to go through TPA that is tissue plasminogen activator which is only possible if certain conditions are followed.
3. The blood pressure of the patient should be normal , that is 120/80 mm hg of the blood pressure.
4. But the patient's blood pressure exceeding the permissible value that is 200/110 is way more and can't be allowed to have TPA for the treatment of stroke.
5. Hence the patient is not a candidate for tissue plasminogen activator.
