Effect of varying methods of upper limb occlusion on fibrinolytic activity in man.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Three techniques of intermittent venous occlusion (an oscillotonometer cuff, pneumatic leggings and an automatic arterial pressure monitoring cuff (Sentinel] were applied to one upper limb of seven healthy male volunteers. Fibrinolytic activity was assessed by the measurement of the euglobulin clot lysis time during a control period followed by 1 h of intermittent venous occlusion. Although no statistically significant differences were found with any of the methods, between the control and experimental periods, there was a trend towards fibrinolytic enhancement with intermittent pneumatic compression.

Effect of local exercise and vessel occlusion on fibrinolytic activity.
Arterial occlusion of the upper limb did not affect the fibrinolytic activity in the venous blood of that limb; venous occlusion associated with venous distension resulted in a marked rise in activity. Local fibrinolytic activity was increased substantially by active exercise; passive exercise induced a smaller increase. Active exercise undertaken during arterial occlusion did not result in a r...

Background: Sensory defects are one of the common complications of stroke. Various studies have reported the prevalence of these deficits in stroke patients between 11 and 85%. These defects in the upper limb of the hemiplegic vary from the lack of primary senses to more complex perceptions, and they reduce the use of the affected limb. Weakness in fine motor manipulation of objects, weakness i...

Background and Objective: Cerebro-Vascular Accident (CVA) is considered to be one of the main causes of acquired motor disability in adults. Different motor rehabilitation programs are being designed in order to improve motor difficulties of patients with CVA. In the current study we aimed to assess the effect of task-based mirror therapy on upper limb functions and activities of daily living i...

Abstract Introduction The main function of the fibrinolytic system is to dissolve fibrin clots in circulation. This system is composed of inactive precursor plasminogen which can be converted into plasmin by the proteolytic enzymes like tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA). Fibrinolytic properties can be found in a variety of medicine plants and they could effectively prevent cardiovascula...

We present the case of a 68-year-old woman, referred to our department for critical upper limb ischemia, which had occurred a few days after homolateral surgical ligamentotomy for carpal tunnel syndrome, diagnosed and confirmed by electromyography, and performed with a brachial tourniquet. The patient was later admitted for subsequent progressive necrosis of the first three fingers of the left ...
