Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effectiveness and safety of tirofiban in patients with reocclusive ischemic stroke after intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase.Methods:Eighty-four patients with re-occlusive ischemic stroke after intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase, admitted to our hospital from January 2018 to May 2020, were prospectively chosen; these patients were divided into tirofiban group and routine (non-tirofiban) group ( n=42). In addition to thrombolysis, patients in the routine group received intensive lipid-lowering, collateral circulation improvement, blood glucose control, and early rehabilitation therapy; after thrombolysis for 24 h, patients without intracranial hemorrhage were given oral aspirin, 0.1 g/d, for 90 d. After thrombolysis and re-occlusion, patients in the tirofiban group were intravenously pumped with 0.4 μg/(kg·min), which was changed to 0.1 μg/(kg·min) after 30 min for 24 h; at 24 h after thrombolysis, brain CT was reexamined: tirofiban was discontinued for patients with intracranial hemorrhage, and intravenous pumping of tirofiban was continued for patients without intracranial hemorrhage for 24 h. Effectiveness was evaluated by comparing the general clinical data, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores 7 d after treatment, and modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores 90 d after treatment between the two groups. Safety was assessed by comparing the intracranial hemorrhage, symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, and mortality within 90 d of treatment between the two groups. Results:There were no significant differences in age, gender, underlying diseases, risk factors, baseline NIHSS scores, time from onset to start of treatment, infarction sites, and TOAST classification between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). NIHSS scores 7 d after treatment ([10.05±4.73] min vs. [7.93±4.68] min), mRS scores 90 d after treatment (3.48±1.48 vs.2.55±1.93), and good prognosis rate 90 d after treatment (21.4% vs. 42.9%) showed significant differences between the routine group and tirofiban group ( P<0.05). In terms of safety, there were no significant differences in intracranial hemorrhage rate (4.76% vs. 7.14%), symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage incidence (2.38% vs. 2.38%) and mortality (2.38% vs. 2.38%) between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:It is safe and effective for tirofiban in patients with re-occlusive ischemic stroke after intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase.
