Transcript of Enhancement of thrombolysis in AMI is an unmet clinical need Increase the rate of reperfusion...
![Page 1: Enhancement of thrombolysis in AMI is an unmet clinical need Increase the rate of reperfusion without increasing bleeding Reduce the time to complete reperfusion.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649ebb5503460f94bc2b24/html5/thumbnails/1.jpg)
• Enhancement of thrombolysis in AMI is an unmet clinical need
• Increase the rate of reperfusion without increasing bleeding
• Reduce the time to complete reperfusion• Reduce the incidence of reocclusion and
reinfarction

Ultrasound Mechanism of ActionUltrasound Mechanism of Action
• Reversible change to fibrin
structure• Large diameter fiber bundles (d 1)
disaggregate into a greater number of
smaller diameter fiber bundles (d 2)
• Increased number of accessible
binding sites
• Decreased flow resistance increases
fluid dispersion into clot
(Francis et al, Ultrasound Med Biol 1995;21:419
Braaten et al, Throm Haemost 1997;78:1063)

• In vitro studies on thrombolytic agents exposed to ultrasound
• Reteplase, alteplase, tenecteplase (Centocor, Genentech)
• No effect on functional activity of the drugs (purified clot lysis assay)
• No effect on structural integrity of the molecules (SDS polyacrylamide GEL electrophoresis)

• In vivo rabbit ilio-femoral artery studies of thrombolysis and ultrasound therapy
• Experimental occlusion using sutures (Suchkova et al, Circulation 2000; 101:2296) or electric current (Luo et al, Circulation 1996; 94:775)
• Treatment with streptokinase, ultrasound, or combination
• Enhanced reperfusion using combination by Doppler flow meter (Suchkova) and angiographic patency (Luo)
