Royal London: v2 On how many occasions has thrombolysis administered to stroke patients resulted in a bleed in the brain?
Dear Barts Health NHS Trust,
On how many occasions has a bleed in the brain followed thrombolysis administered to stroke patients at the Royal London Hospital?
Please give data per year 2013 - 2018; please provide actual numbers and also give the amount as a percentage of patients thrombolysed for stroke at the hospital each year.
Please also break down the data by HASU and ASU in each year.
Yours sincerely,
Carly Jeffrey

NB:
I asked this question before but was refused on the grounds of exemptions. I have rephrased the question to show that this data can be provided without revealing anything personally identifying about patients treated at the Royal London.
