RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Although fibrinolytic therapy is an upcoming treatment for intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH), standard guidelines are lacking, and some clinical issues persist. Here, we used our recently devised clot model of ICH to systematically analyse effects of irrigation and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) on fibrinolysis. METHODS: In vitro clots of human blood (25 ml) were generated and a catheter irrigation system was applied to deliver fluid/treatment. Clots were weighed before and after treatment and compared to rtPA treatment alone. First various drainage periods (15, 30 and 60 min; n = 3 each) and irrigation rates (0, 15, 90 and 180 ml/h; n = 3-5 each) were tested, followed by rtPA administration (1 mg, 15 min incubation) at each irrigation rate. Potential fibrinolytic effect of CSF was examined by incubation with 5 ml healthy vs. haemorrhagic CSF (n = 3 each). To assess a washout effect treatment with saline (0.9%), rtPA (1 mg) and high-rate irrigation (180 ml/h) were compared with measuring plasminogen level before and after. Furthermore clots were treated with a combination of plasminogen (150% serum concentration) and rtPA (1 mg). RESULTS: Relative clot end weights after 60 min irrigation system treatments were 66.3 ± 3.8% (0 ml/h), 46.3 ± 9.5% (15 ml/h), 46.5 ± 7.1% (90 ml/h) and 53.3 ± 4.1% (180 ml/h). At a lower irrigation rate (15 ml/h), relative end weights were lowest (49.5 ± 4.6%) after 60 min (15 min: 62 ± 4.3%, p = 0.016; 30 min: 62.90 ± 1.88%, p = 0.012). The combination of rtPA and irrigation produced following relative end weights: 0 ml/h, 35 ± 3.2%; 15 ml/h, 32.1 ± 5.7%; 90 ml/h, 36.7 ± 6.3% and 180 ml/h, 41.9 ± 7.5%. No irrigation (0 ml/h) versus rtPA alone showed a significant difference (p < 0.0001) in higher clot weight reduction by rtPA. Similar rtPA+15 ml/h irrigation achieved a significant higher weight reduction compared to 15 ml/h irrigation alone (p = 0.0124). No differences were evident at 90 and 180 ml/h irrigation rates with and without rtPA. Healthy (55.1 ± 5%) or haemorrhagic (65.2 ± 6.2%) CSF showed no fibrinolytic activity. Plasminogen levels in clots declined dramatically (> 80% initially to < 10%) after 1 mg single rtPA dosing and high-rate (180 ml/h) irrigation. The fibrinolytic benefit of adding plasminogen to rtPA was marginal. CONCLUSIONS: In our in vitro clot model, irrigation combined with rtPA (vs. rtPA alone) conferred no added lytic benefit. Likewise, exposure to haemorrhagic CSF did not increase clot lysis.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Catheter-based lysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) is a well-established therapy for spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The effectiveness of this therapy can be increased with ultrasound, but the optimal conditions are not yet clearly established. Using a novel in vitro system of blood clots previously developed by our group, we investigated various parameters of intralesional sonothrombolysis using an endosonography catheter in combination with rtPA. METHODS: Standardized human blood clots were equipped with a drainage catheter and weighed before and after 4 treatments: control (drainage only), rtPA only, ultrasound only and the combination of rtPA+ultrasound. The effectiveness of ultrasound was further analysed in terms of optimal frequency, duration and distance to the probe. Temperature and acoustic peak rarefaction pressure (APRP) were assessed to analyse potential adverse effects and quantify lysis. Histo-morphological analysis of the treated clots was performed by H&E staining and confocal laser scanning microscopy using fluorescent fibrinogen. RESULTS: The combined treatment rtPA+ultrasound achieved the highest lysis rates with a relative weight of 30.3%±5.5% (p≤0.0001) compared to all other groups. Similar results were observed when treating aged clots. Confocal fluorescent microscopy of the treated clots revealed a rarefied fibrin mesh without cavitations. No relevant temperature increase occurred (0.53±0.75°C). The optimal insonation treatment time was 1 hour. APRP measurements showed a lysis threshold of 515.5±113.4 kPa. Application of 10 MHz achieved optimal lysis and lysis radius, while simultaneously proving to be the best frequency for morphologic imaging of the clot and surrounding tissue. CONCLUSIONS: These promising data provide the basis for an individualized minimal invasive ICH therapy by rtPA and sonothrombolysis independent of ICH age.

RESUMO

Hematoma lysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) has emerged as an alternative therapy for spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Optimal dose and schedule are still unclear. The aim of this study was to create a reliable in vitro blood clot model for investigation of optimal drug dose and timing. An in vitro clot model was established, using 25 mL and 50 mL of human blood. Catheters were placed into the clots and three groups, using intraclot application of rtPA, placebo, and catheter alone, were analyzed. Dose-response relationship, repetition, and duration of rtPA treatment and its effectiveness in aged clots were investigated. A significant relative end weight difference was found in rtPA treated clots compared to catheter alone (p = 0.002) and placebo treated clots (p < 0.001). Dose-response analysis revealed 95% effective dose around 1 mg rtPA in 25 and 50 mL clots. Approximately 80% of relative clot lysis could be achieved after 15 min incubation. Lysis of aged clots was less effective. A new clot model for in vitro investigation was established. Our data suggest that current protocols for rtPA based ICH therapy may be optimized by using less rtPA at shorter incubation times.
