Ischemic stroke complicating thrombolytic therapy with tenecteplase for ST elevation myocardial infarction: two case reports
BACKGROUND Hemorrhagic complications are quite common in the rare cases where thrombolysis is performed. Ischemic stroke in the aftermath of thrombolysis for a ST elevation myocardial infarction is a very rare and paradoxical complication. With these observations in mind we report two interesting cases of ischemic stroke which occurred after fibrinolytic therapy with tenecteplase for a ST eleva...
متن کاملPrehospital thrombolytic therapy for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
The results of the ER-TIMI (Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction) 19 trial (1) provide yet another building block in the case for prehospital administration of thrombolytic agents to patients presenting with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (MI). These results reflect as accurately as possible the contemporary impact on time to administration (32-min decrease), and they come at...
متن کاملfactors associated with delay in thrombolytic therapy in patients with st-elevation myocardial infarction
background : treatment delay in the management of st-elevation myocardial infarction conversely correlates with prognosis and survival of the patients. this study aimed to investigate factors associated with delay in the thrombolytic therapy of these patients in tehran. methods : between 2007 and 2010, the interval between the self-reported time of the onset of symptoms and initiation of the th...
متن کاملTenecteplase: Innovative Fibrinolysis for ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI)
The use of fibrinolytic agents in the early treatment of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is known to significantly reduce mortality. Accelerated (“frontloaded”) alteplase is being challenged as the standard of care for pharmacological reperfusion. Alteplase, reteplase, and streptokinase have several limitations. The search for newer agents has focused on developing a fibrinol...
متن کاملA novel model for evaluating thrombolytic therapy in dogs with ST-elevation myocardial infarction
BACKGROUND There is still no standard large animal model for evaluating the effectiveness of potential thrombolytic therapies. Here, we aimed to develop a new beagle model with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) by injecting autologous emboli with similar components of coronary thrombus. METHODS 18 male beagles were included and divided into three groups: red embolus group (n = 6), wh...
