What to do with an ICH patient who bled while on AC for a mechanical heart valve? When and how to restart AC?

In a trial from China involving 1412 patients with acute ischemic stroke presenting within 4.5 hours, the percentage who had an excellent functional outcome at 90 days was 79.5% with reteplase and 70.4% with alteplase. Full RAISE trial results: nej.md/3VlxL0e
