Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical effect of intravenous thrombolytic therapy for central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) with poor effect after the treatment of arterial thrombolytic therapy.Methods Twenty-four CRAO patients (24 eyes) with poor effect after the treatment of arterial thrombolytic therapy were enrolled in this study.There were 11 males and 13 females.The age was ranged from 35 to 80 years,with the mean age of (56.7± 15.6) years.There were 11 right eyes and 13 left eyes.The visual acuity was tested by standard visual acuity chart.The arm-retinal circulation time (A-Rct) and the filling time of retinal artery and its branches (FT) were detected by fluorescein fundus angiography (FFA).The visual acuity was ranged from light sensation to 0.5,with the average of 0.04±0.012.The A-Rct was ranged from 18.0 s to 35.0 s,with the mean of (29.7±5.8) s.The FT was ranged from 4.0 s to 16.0 s,with the mean of (12.9±2.3) s.All patients were treated with urokinase intravenous thrombolytic therapy.The dosage ofurokinase was 3000 U/kg,2 times/d,adding 250 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride intravenous drip,2 times between 8-10 h,and continuous treatment of FFA after 5 days.Comparative analysis was performed on the visual acuity of the patients before and after treatment,and the changes of A-Rct and FT.Results After intravenous thrombolytic therapy,the A-Rct was ranged from 16.0 s to 34.0 s,with the mean of (22.4 ±5.5) s.Among 24 eyes,the A-Rct was 27.0-34.0 s in 4 eyes (16.67%),18.0-26.0 s in 11 eyes (45.83%);16.0-17.0 s in 9 eyes (37.50%).The FT was ranged from 2.4 s to 16.0 s,with the mean of (7.4± 2.6) s.Compared with before intravenous thrombolytic therapy,the A-Rct was shortened by 7.3 s and the FT was shortened by 5.5 s with the significant differences (x2=24.6,24.9;P<0.01).After intravenous thrombolytic therapy,the visual acuity was ranged from light sensation to 0.6,with the average of 0.08 ± 0.011.There were 1 eye with vision of light perception (4.17%),8 eyes with hand movement/20 cm (33.33%),11 eyes with 0.02-0.05 (45.83%),2 eyes with 0.1-0.2 (8.33%),1 eye with 0.5 (4.17%) and 1 eye with 0.6 (4.17%).The visual acuity was improved in 19 eyes (79.17%).The difference of visual acuity before and after intravenous thrombolytic therapy was significant (x2=7.99,P<0.05).There was no local and systemic adverse effects during and after treatment.Conclusion Intravenous thrombolytic therapy for CRAO with poor effect after the treatment of arterial thrombolytic therapy can further improve the circulation of retinal artery and visual acuity.
