Abstract:
Objective To discuss the feasibility,efficiency and safety of urokinase application in patients with hypertensive intraventricular hemorrhage.Methods Sixty-nine patients were included,30 treated with ventricular drainage alone and 39 receiving adjunctive intraventricular urokinase.CT images and ADL scores were compared between the two groups.Results The intraventricular thrombolysis with urokinase significantly hastened the resolution of intraventricular blood clots as compared with ventricular drainage alone(P=0.030),with better outcome(P=0.029).Conclusion Urokinase application is a simple,effective,and safe in managing hypertensive intraventricular hemorrhage.
