ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the clinical features of patients with acute myocardial infarction underwent successful thrombolytic therapy post cardiopulmonary resuscitation.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>This retrospective analysis included 65 patients with acute myocardial infarction underwent successful intravenous thrombolysis post cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The cases were collected from Chinese Journal Full-text Database from 1996 to 2006, only patients met the recanalization criteria of coronary artery were included.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Most of the patients were male (93.8%, 61/65) and aged less than 65 years (81.5%, 53/65). Cardiopulmonary resuscitation was performed within 5 min after cardiac arrest in 63 patients (96.9%). Defibrillation was performed 3.2 times per patient, chest compression in 52 patients (80.0%) and tracheal intubation in 21 patients (32.3%). The restoration time of spontaneous circulation were achieved within 10 min in 36 cases (55.4%), between 11 - 30 min in 19 cases (29.2%)and between 31 - 107 min in 10 cases (15.4%). Thrombolysis agents (urokinase, recombinant streptokinase or recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator) were given intravenously at 172 +/- 92 min after acute myocardial infarction. Mild hemorrhage was seen in 12 cases (18.5%) and there was no report on severe hemorrhage event. The hemorrhage incidence tended to be higher than that of reported large Chinese thrombolysis trials (11.1% - 15.1%, P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Thrombolytic therapy was relatively safe and effective for those middle-aged male AMI patients received rapid cardiopulmonary resuscitation (< 5 min after cardiac arrest) and with shorter spontaneous circulation restoration time (<30 min).</p>
