its probably 2. there is a high risk of thromboembolus in atrial fibrillation. fibrinolitic therapy will make possible thrombus more easily to tear off.

Those over 75 years benefit as much or more than younger MI patients from thrombolysis. Proliferative diabetic retinopathy is a relative contraindication. Important contraindications to thrombolysis include - Pregnancy
- Bleeding (gut, menstrual)
- Recent stroke or surgery
- Uncontrolled severe hypertension
- GI malignancy
- Prolonged CPR (more than half an hour)
