Thrombolysis (tissue plasminogen activator) in stroke: a medicolegal quagmire.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Despite the success of the 1995 National Institutes of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) study using IV recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) within 3 hours in acute stroke and its subsequent FDA approval, there has been a reluctance to use tPA because of safety and efficacy issues with high incidence of intracerebral hemorrhage, and protocol violations. ...
متن کاملDual frequency ultrasound-enhanced tissue plasminogen activator thrombolysis in an in vitro human clot model
Introduction: Stroke causes death and disability in patients throughout the world. At present, the only FDA- approved drug for ischemic stroke is recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt- PA). Unfortunately, rtPA can cause intracerebral hemorrhage and must use within limited time window (within 3-4.5 hour after onset of stroke). Ultrasound with rtPA loaded liposomes (rtPA_L...
متن کاملThe Outcome of Treatment With Recombinant Tissue Plasminogen Activator in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Background: Thrombolytic therapy is the recommended treatment of acute ischemic stroke. It is crucial to evaluate the treatment results with recombinant Tissue Plasminogen Activator (r-TPA) in patients with acute stroke. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate treatment outcomes with r-TPA in patients with acute stroke in a referral stroke center in Iran. Materials & Methods: In this retrosp...
متن کاملThrombolysis with low dose tissue plasminogen activator.
Two cases of vena caval thrombosis in infants were successfully treated with low dose (0.01-0.05 mg/kg/hour) local infusions of tissue plasminogen activator after conventional anticoagulant treatment had been unsuccessful. This approach is useful for clots associated with indwelling intravascular catheters, and a low dose infusion of tissue plasminogen activator as a regional application is rec...
متن کاملLow-dose tissue plasminogen activator thrombolysis in children.
PURPOSE To compare results of low-dose tissue plasminogen activator (TPA) in children with arterial and venous thrombi relative to standard published dosing. METHODS Subjects consisted of all consecutive children with objectively confirmed thrombi for whom TPA thrombolysis was clinically ordered by the authors. Initial dosing used published standard dose (0.1-0.5 mg/kg per hour). With experie...
