Athens, Greece 3General Hospital of Katerini, Katerini, Greece 4St. Luke’s Hospital, Thessaloniki, Greece J Neurosci Rural Pract 2020;11:191–195 Abstract Spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma (SSEH) is a rare, albeit well-documented complication following thrombolysis treatment in ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). A SSEH usually manifests with cervical pain and neurologic deficits and may require surgical intervention. In this case report, we present the first reported SSEH to occur following thrombolysis with reteplase. In this case, the SSEH manifested with cervical pain shortly after the patient emerged from his rescue percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Although magnetic resonance imaging reported spinal cord com- Keywords pression, the lack of neurologic symptoms prompted the treating clinicians to delay ► spinal epidural surgery. A dangerous dilemma emerged, as the usual antithrombotic regimen that hematoma was necessary to avoid stent thrombosis post-PCI, was also likely to exacerbate the ► spontaneous spinal bleeding. As a compromise, the patient only received aspirin as a single antiplatelet epidural hematoma therapy. Ultimately, the patient responded well to conservative treatment, with the ► cervical spine hematoma stabilizing a week later, without residual neurologic deficits.

    Updated April 6, 2020 Memorial Hermann Health Stroke System and UTHealth Stroke Clinical Protocol for IV Alteplase General Guidelines: In all cases, the anticipated benefit needs to be weighed against the risks, so that in the later time windows when benefit from IV Alteplase is less, or in the patient with minimal deficits who has less to gain from treatment with IV Alteplase, one should be more cautious with administration to patients who have an underlying clinical profile that might be associated with increased bleeding risk. All IV Alteplase administration referenced below is based on standard dosing (0.9mg/kg; 90mg max dose). 1. Thrombolytic treatment in patients presenting within 0-4.5 hours of symptom onset. a. IV Alteplase is recommended for patients who meet IV criteria and be treated within 4.5 hours of ischemic stroke symptom onset or patient last known well. (Stroke. 2019;50:e344–e418. Table 8). i.

  • Dosing and Administration Guide for RETAVASE® (Reteplase) for Injection1
    RETAVASE® (reteplase) is a recombinant plasminogen activator which catalyzes the cleavage of endogenous plasminogen to generate plasmin. Plasmin degrades the fibrin matrix of the thrombus, exerting its thrombolytic action.
