The use of thrombolytic agents.

چکیده
Thrombi and thromboemboli are organized fibrin clots that may result in partial or total occlusion of arterial or venous blood flow. Consequences of occlusion of blood flow vary with the organ affected.Thrombolytic agents have been used for the dissolution of pathologic thrombi since the 1980s. While similar in their mechanisms of action and side effects, these agents differ in their specificity for fibrin and duration of activity. Newer thrombolytic agents have been developed to improve clot dissolution and minimize side effects. Their use in veterinary medicine has been reported, but guidelines for such use have not been published.

Successful Use of Two Thrombolytic Drugs in Prosthetic Mitral and Aortic Valve Thrombosis
Introduction: Prosthetic valve thrombosis is a rare and severe complication of valve replacement, most often encountered with a mechanical prosthesis. The significant morbidity and mortality associated with this condition warrant rapid diagnostic evaluation. Although surgery is the first-line therapy in symptomatic obstructive mechanical valve thrombosis, thrombolytic therapy has been used as a...

Background and purpose: The new thrombolytic agents have opened a new horizon in the treatment of patients with stroke. However, the contraindication and delay in beginning of the drug have caused serious obstacles to apply this therapy. In this study we verified these obstacles in early beginning of thrombolytic treatment. Materials and methods: In this cross sectional study, we investigated ...

In massive pulmonary embolism where there may be evidence of right ventricular dysfunction and acute pulmonary hypertension, anticoagulation therapy alone may prove inadequate. In such situations use of thrombolytic agents produces an improvement in haemodynamics compared to anticoagulants alone, although studies to date have been too small to address the issue of mortality benefit. It would ap...
