Rationale 1: Drug therapy of thrombotic stroke focuses on two main goals: prevention of strokes through the use of anticoagulants and antihypertensive agents, and restoration of blood supply to the affected portion of the brain as quickly as possible after an acute stroke through the use of thrombolytics. Hemorrhagic stroke is caused by rupture of a cerebral vessel and its associated bleeding into neural tissue.
Rationale 2: A thrombolytic will dissolve the clot, causing the blockage.
Rationale 3: A hemorrhagic stroke should not be treated with a thrombolytic drug.
Rationale 4: A thrombotic stroke can be treated with a thrombolytic.
