Early intravenous thrombolysis with recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator in vertebrobasilar ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND The optimal therapy of vertebrobasilar ischemic stroke is under debate. In the case of underlying basilar artery occlusion, intra-arterial thrombolysis is recommended. Because this pathologic condition is rarely found and the procedure is time consuming and restricted to specialized centers, the question arises whether early intravenous thrombolysis could also effectively be applied ...

متن کاملMonitoring intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke with diffusion and perfusion MRI.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) administration is an effective therapy for ischemic stroke when initiated within 3 hours and possibly up to 6 hours after symptom onset. To improve patient selection, a fast diagnostic tool that allows reliable diagnosis of hemorrhage and ischemia, vessel status, and tissue at risk at an early stage may be useful...
متن کاملRecombinant Tissue-Type Plasminogen Activator (Alteplase) for Ischemic Stroke
THE FOOD AND DRUG ADMINIStration (FDA) approval in June 1996 of intravenous recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) for patients with acute ischemic stroke treated within 3 hours of symptom onset marked a historic first step in treating this devastating disease. This approval was primarily based on the results of the National Institute of Neurologic Disorders (NINDS) trials (1 and...
