Fibrinolytic therapy, also known as thrombolytic therapy, is used to lyse acute blood clots by activating plasminogen, resulting in the formation of plasmin, which cleaves the fibrin cross-links ...

Although the benefits of thrombolytic therapy are well established in patients younger than age 75 years with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction, the value of thrombolytic treatment in ...

[33] Fibrinolytic therapy can be administered in most centers within 30 to 60 minutes of arrival, and since fibrinolytic therapy usually opens the occluded artery within 60-90 minutes, this ...

Berger et al. retrospectively analyzed data from two trials of fibrinolytic therapy in STEMI to determine the effect of high-dose versus low-dose aspirin on cardiovascular outcome and bleeding events.

The treatment of STEMI includes prompt revascularization and medical therapy. Revascularization can be performed by either primary PCI, fibrinolytic therapy (thrombolytic therapy) or surgically.

Drainage, irrigation and fibrinolytic therapy (DRIFT) for post-haemorrhagic hydrocephalus in preterm infants should only be used in the context of research. Research should aim to establish the risk ...
