[Thrombolytic therapy with ultra-high doses of streptokinase]. / Thrombolytische Therapie mit ultrahohen Streptokinasedosen.

Two pilot studies were carried out in patients suffering from acute myocardial infarction. They received high doses of streptokinase and acylated streptokinase-plasminogen activator complex intravenously as a bolus injection. Furthermore, the possibility of using streptokinase bolus therapy was examined in patients with acute vascular occlusion. Due to the limited number and the heterogenicity of cases the results obtained in patients with acute myocardial infarction are to evaluate with some reservation. In patients with acute vascular occlusion streptokinase bolus therapy at high doses proved to be a promising alternative to the conventional therapy.
