Stability of alteplase for ultrasound-facilitated catheter-directed thrombolysis [PDF]

Blood Advances, 2021
Abstract Ultrasound-facilitated catheter-directed thrombolysis is used with low-dose alteplase to treat pulmonary embolism. This reduces the risk of bleeding that accompanies systemic administration of higher alteplase doses. Some studies suggest that alteplase given over 2 to 6 hours is safe and effective, but there are few data to ...
