In the Clinical Practice article by van der Worp and van Gijn (Aug. 9 issue),1 the question of the age at which a patient could be selected for treatment with intravenous thrombolysis warrants further attention. According to the Safe Implementation of Thrombolysis in Stroke Monitoring Study (SITS-MOST) selection criteria,2 this treatment cannot be ...

Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 1996
While case fatality rates in ischemic stroke tend to decline, the total number of strokes is expected to increase further in the future because of more people reaching a greater age. Acute ischemic stroke, usually caused by chronic arterial hypertension, in most cases is induced either by a sudden loss of perfusion pressure or by thromboembolism ...

Thrombolysis for Acute Ischemic Stroke
Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry, 2009In the last decennium, thrombolytic therapy has changed the management of acute ischemic stroke. Randomized clinical studies have demonstrated that intravenous thrombolysis with tissue plasminogen activator improves functional outcomes. Recently the time window for intravenous thrombolysis has been extended from 3 to 4.5 hours after stroke onset, which

Thrombolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke
1996Thrombolysis is an attractive but potentially dangerous they for cerebral ischemia: it is capable of dissolving an arterial thrombus, but can also transform a pale infarct into a hematoma and/or may cause severe oedema and herniation. The safety and efficacy of the treatment critically depend on the timing of intervention ad on patient selection.
