FOAMcastini - Perspectives on the ACEP tPA Clinical Policy Draft

As detailed in this FOAMcastini, ACEP just released a draft of an updated clinical policy on tPA for acute ischemic stroke.  This came in the wake of years of controversy over the aggressive position taken in the 2012 clinical policy. While FOAMcast is not an interview style podcast, we felt compelled to get some perspective on Emergency Physicians a little more experienced than ourselves.  Here we interview: Dr. Ryan Radecki (@emlitofnote), Assistant Professor, University of Texas - Houston See his response to the policy on his blog here Dr. David Newman (#draftnewman), Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine, Mount Sinai Hospital Dr. Anand Swaminathan (@EMSwami), Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine, NYU Dr. Ken Milne (@thesgem), Chief of Staff at South Huron Hospital
