Brief Summary

This is a phase III trial trying to determine whether 12-hour bed rest following IV thrombolysis therapy (i.e. tPA) for ischemic stroke is non-inferior to 24-hour bed rest by measure of outcomes on the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 90 days post bed rest.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
90 day mRS90 days post bed rest

Proportion of patients with a modified Rankin Scale score (min 0, max 5 with 0 being best outcome) of 0-2 at 90 days

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Readmission90 days post bed rest

Determine whether rates of readmission are at least similar in the two arms.

PneumoniaDuration of hospitalization stay, average 5 days

Determine whether rates of pneumonia are at least similar in the two arms. Rates will be measured as percentages of the entire population at risk.

Venous ThromboembolismDuration of hospitalization stay, average 5 days

Determine whether rates of VTE are at least similar in the two arms. Rates will be measured as percentages of the entire population at risk.

Neurological WorseningDuration of hospitalization stay, average 5 days

Determine whether rates of neurological worsening are at least similar in the two arms. Rates will be measured as percentages of the entire population at risk.

Length of StayDuration of hospitalization stay, average 5 days

Determine whether hospital length of stay are at least similar in the two arms. This will ve measured in days.
