One day Suzannah Preisendorf\u2019s daughter will learn of the amazing obstacles her mother overcame to be able to hold her firstborn.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am so thankful to have this special, healthy baby,\u201d the 26-year-old Preisendorf said as she picked her daughter up off the floor and gave her a kiss \u2014 a simple mothering task, yet one that Preisendorf could have missed if it weren\u2019t for the fast-acting Primary Stroke Center team at UCHealth Northern Colorado’s Medical Center of the Rockies\u00a0in Loveland.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt started with a horrible headache, dizziness and complete numbness on my right side,\u201d she remembered of that August 2015 day.<\/p>\n

Four days past her due date, Preisendorf was fortunate to have her husband, Scott, by her side.\u201cWhen I grabbed ahold of her, Suzannah\u2019s legs just buckled,\u201d he recalled.<\/p>\n

The couple rushed to MCR, a nationally recognized Primary Stroke Center, where the stroke team, including neurologist Dr. Brian Kaiser, emergency physician Dr. Marc Breen<\/a> and obstetrician Dr. Eric Yeh<\/a>, sprang to work to save Preisendorf and her baby.<\/p>\n

Though hard to believe for someone so young, Preisendorf was suffering from an ischemic stroke, a brain MRI confirmed. An artery supplying oxygen-rich blood to her brain was blocked by a blood clot.<\/p>\n

That stunning discovery posed a difficult question: Could a full-term pregnant patient be given the clot-busting drug that doctors knew could break her clot?<\/p>\n

Tissue plasminogen activator, or tPA, is given through an arm IV and restores blood flow quickly to the brain to minimize permanent disability. Complications include bleeding, but most studies on the effects of the drug weren\u2019t conducted on pregnant women, according to Kaiser.<\/p>\n

\u201cI couldn\u2019t find any other cases where they treated somebody [with tPA] at 40-plus weeks [pregnant],\u201d he said. \u201cMy chief concern was if Suzannah went into labor after receiving the tPA, would bleeding complications occur?”<\/p>\n

Kaiser consulted further with fellow neurologist Dr. Pearce Korb of UCHealth Metro Denver and decided that Preisendorf was indeed a good candidate for tPA, so they administered the drug. MCR Stroke Program Medical Director Dr. Gerald McIntosh joined the treatment team the next morning to assist in the continued care of the young, soon-to-be mother.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis was pretty rare,\u201d McIntosh said. \u201cWe found nothing in the international literature like this case.\u201d<\/p>\n

The team of UCHealth specialists continued through the next day researching and discussing the best next steps for the patient, including the risks involved with her pending delivery.<\/p>\n

That around-the-clock vigilance was incredibly reassuring, Preisendorf said.<\/p>\n

\u201cDoctors were always in the hallway discussing what needed to be done from the moment I was in the emergency room,\u201d she added. \u201cThey were phenomenal. Each puzzle piece that fell into place helped us make the final decision.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI think they were personally invested in our story, which made us feel better,\u201d Scott said.<\/p>\n

Because of Preisendorf\u2019s potential risk of bleeding, doctors felt a vaginal delivery wasn\u2019t a good option because of the increased intracranial pressure that would be caused by pushing. The health care team concluded that it would be safer for both the patient and baby if doctors delivered via cesarean section.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were all rooting for this family,\u201d said Leigh Anne Creighton, stroke coordinator for UCHealth Northern Colorado. \u201cAs a Primary Stroke Center, we have the expertise and resources to provide the collaborative care required to treat patients with strokes. And this collaboration that touched the lives of this young mother and her child was incredible. It involved neurology, OB, anesthesia, pharmacy, lactation nurses, a rehabilitation team, ICU nurses and case managers. We were committed to having a whole team behind this patient.\u201d<\/p>\n

Thirty-six hours after receiving tPA, Preisendorf delivered her beautiful baby girl, Maisy, without complications.<\/p>\n

But Preisendorf\u2019s fight wasn\u2019t over. Although tPA broke up her clot, deficits caused by the stroke needed time to resolve. Preisendorf could not sit, stand or walk on her own, and she wasn\u2019t able to hold, bathe or feed Maisy with her weakened right arm.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was driven by wanting to take care of Maisy. She is pure joy,\u201d Preisendorf said while bouncing Maisy on her knee. \u201cI started going to physical therapy and occupational therapy rehab on an outpatient basis, and I do exercises at home. It was a huge motivator for me to know that if I worked hard I could finally hold her. If that doesn\u2019t motivate you, I don\u2019t know what will.\u201d<\/p>\n

Their experience also has motivated the Preisendorfs to use their story to raise stroke awareness and the importance of acting fast when you suspect a loved one is having a stroke.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven young, pregnant women can have strokes,\u201d Scott said. \u201cSuzannah is 26; we had an appointment that morning and all the tests were perfect. It can happen to anyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you suspect someone is experiencing a stroke, call 911 immediately. Paramedics are trained to recognize stroke symptoms and can notify the emergency room so that the stroke team is ready when the patient arrives. Immediate evaluation of patients with stroke symptoms by the stroke team is critical to providing the best chance of reducing permanent disabilities and death.<\/p>\n

Medical Center of the Rockies and Poudre Valley Hospital are nationally accredited primary stroke centers, meaning they have a stroke team of physicians and nurses committed to rapid evaluation and treatment of stroke 24\/7, 365 days of the year. Research shows that patients who arrive at the ER within four and a half hours of their first symptom are eligible to be treated with tPA. UCHealth focuses on a 45-minute window for treating stroke patients so that patients like Preisendorf can return home to their families.<\/p>\n

\nQUICKLY IDENTIFY A STROKE USING THE \u2018FAST\u2019 TEST:<\/strong>
\nF \u2013 FACE:<\/strong>\u00a0Ask the person to smile. Does one side of the face droop?
\nA \u2013 ARMS:<\/strong>\u00a0Ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift downward?
\nS \u2013 SPEECH:<\/strong>\u00a0Ask the person to repeat a simple phrase. Is the speech slurred or strange?
