They found that recovery rates were significantly higher with systemic clot-busting drugs than with no treatment or with conservative treatment ( P Indeed, conservative treatments caused more harm than no treatment, with a number needed to harm of 10. [medpagetoday.com]

A good prognosis can be achieved if the treatment starts within the first 4 to 5 hours after occlusion. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Identifying symptoms of a stroke quickly and seeking prompt treatment can improve prognosis and maximize patient recovery. Fibrinolytic therapy can be a lifesaving treatment for stroke. [acls.com]

It is possible that the prognosis for some of these patients would have been worse if they had not been closely monitored and promptly treated when decompensation occurred; this notion is supported by the higher rates of death reported in noninterventional [nejm.org]
