ABSTRACT
Objective To study the clinical efficacy of intra-arterial thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) for the treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular disease caused by cerebral thrombosis. Methods A total of 245 patients accepted by our hospital during May 2013 and July 2015 were divided into the observation group (n=148) and the control group (n=97). All patients were given conventional process for controling blood pressure and blood lipids. Patients in observation group received intra-arterial thrombolysis with rt-PA, while patients in control group accepted conventional treatment. At the time of admission, the demographic characteristic, vascular influencing factors, baseline clinical findings, laboratory findings and neurological deficits were collected. The improvement of neurological function was evaluated by the modified Rankin scale 3 months after treatment. The levels of fibrinogen (FIB), D-Dimer, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and thrombin time (PT) were measured before and 24 h after the treatment. Results There were no significant differences in demographic characteristic and general clinical data between the two groups ( P>0.05). The proportion of patients with improved neurological function was significantly higher in observation group than that of the control group (83.11％vs. 53.61％, P0.05). Twenty-four hours after the treatment, the levels of FIB, D-Dimer, APTT and PT were significantly improved in the observation group compared with those before treatment. The level of FIB was significantly decreased, D-Dimer was significantly increased, APTT and PT were significantly prolonged in observation group compared with those of control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The rt-PA can effectively dissolve thrombosis and correct the coagulation system and fibrinolytic system.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical effect and quality of life of clopidogrel combined with atorvastatin in the treatment of cerebral infrction.Methods 74 patients with cerebral infarction were randomly divided into study group and control group, 37 cases in each group.The control group applied the traditional treatment methods, and the study group were treated with drug combination therapy ( clopidogrel +fluvastatin) on the basis of the control group.After 1 course (6 months), the scores of neurological function and activity, clinical efficacy and quality of life of the two groups were observed and compared.Results National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale ( NIHSS) and Fugl-Meyer were significantly improved in the two groups at discharge (P<0.05), but the improvement degree of the study group was significantly better than the control group (P<0.05).In the control group, 7 cases were ineffective, the effective rate was 81.1%, while the study group was 3 cases, the effective rate was 91.9%, with statistically significant differences(P<0.05), The study group were significantly better than the control group (P<0.05) in the physiological, environmental, health status and quality of life, but the difference was not statistically significant in the psychological and social dimensions.Conclusion Clopidogrel combined with fluvastatin in treating cerebral infarction could significantly improve the treatment efficiency, effectively control blood lipid levels of patients, and improve nerve function and activity ability of patients, and ultimately improve the quality of life of patients.
