RESUMEN
Reperfusion therapy, including intravenous thrombolysis and endovascular therapy, is an effective treatment for acute ischemic stroke. As a common complication after reperfusion therapy, hemorrhagic transformation is closely associated with the poor outcomes of patients. Early evaluation of clinical features, imaging and blood biomarkers can predict the risk of hemorrhagic transformation, so as to better guide the reperfusion treatment in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
RESUMEN
The examinations of optical coherence tomography (OCT) images were obtained in 136 patients. Lactated Ringer's solution or physiological saline was used randomly as perfusate. Their electrocardiogram and cardiac enzymes were acquired to compare the safety and image quality of two perfusates.The incidence of ventricular arrhythmia and rise of cardiac enzymes were lower in the lactated Ringer's solution group than those in the physiological saline group.Yet the image quality of OCT had no difference.The use of lactated Ringer's solution as perfusate instead of physiological saline in OCT examination may protect the ischemic myocardium and reduce the incidence of complications.
