History of tPA in acute MI with Dr Phil Ludbrook

The first patient treated with tPA in an acute myocardial infarction was at Barnes-Jewish Hospital. In this episode, I talked with one of the key players in making that happen, Dr Phil Ludbrook. It’s a great bit of medical history that I hope you enjoy!
