Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Managing patients with thrombotic vascular disease is complex and challenging: Ischemic vascular disease remains a complicated interplay of atherosclerosis and thrombosis—even with the evolution in our understanding of the pathobiology of thrombosis. There has been tremendous growth in therapeutic options which are quickly finding their place in daily practice, including a remarkable expansion in the number of intravenous and oral antithrombotic agents and new antiplatelet agents Now more than ever, all cardiologists, hematologists, and specialists in vascular medicine, as well as other professionals, such as hospital pharmacists, who deal with prognosis and intervention in preventing thrombosis, need a resource that distills current knowledge of this important subject. Written and edited by today’s leading international, Therapeutic Advances in Thrombosis, 2e provides physicians with the very latest in medical and surgical advances in antithrombotic therapies. With this comprehensively updated edition you get: Coverage of virtually all aspects of venous and arterial thrombotic disease and the corresponding therapies Strategies to manage specific clinical conditions and how to tailor treatment to individual patient needs Updated chapters covering thrombolysis in ST-elevated myocardial infarctions; thrombosis in patients with diabetes, pregnancy, and renal dysfunction Special emphasis on the pharmacology of novel anticoagulants and their practical use in venous thromboembolism and atrial fibrillation. Plus, all chapters fully explore clinical trial designs and outcomes for particular treatment therapies, as well as contain the relevant ACC/AHA/ESC guidelines, so you can confidently apply what you learn.
Download or read book Thrombolysis in Pulmonary Embolism written by Carlos Jerjes-Sánchez and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-08-26 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an up-to-date review of the use of thrombolytic therapy in the treatment of acute pulmonary embolism. It discusses the mechanisms of thrombosis; pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the most commonly used fibrinolytics; evidence-based results from multicenter control trials in which thrombolytic treatment was administered; criteria by which pulmonary embolism patients requiring thrombolysis are identified; and the use of thrombolytic therapy in special situations such as in in-transit thrombus and pregnancy. Focusing on peripheral intravenous thrombolysis, which can performed safely and effectively in emergency departments, hospital wards, and intensive critical care units in tertiary and community hospitals, Thrombolysis in Pulmonary Embolism is a valuable resource for cardiologists, pulmonologists, and internists.
Download or read book Thrombolytic Therapy for Acute Stroke written by Patrick D. Lyden and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-11-08 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It often takes time for a new therapeutic modality to mature into an accepted treatment option. After initial approval, new drugs, devices, and procedures all go through this process until they become “vetted” by the scientific community as well as the medical community at large. Thrombolysis for treatment of stroke is no exception. Thrombolytic Therapy for Acute Stroke, Second Edition comes four years after the first edition and provides a very comprehensive, updated perspective on the use of intravenous rt-TPA in acute stroke. The authors provide longer term follow-up on the pivotal clinical trials that led to Food and Drug Administration approval, data concerning phase 4 trials in larger numbers of patients, and, most importantly, the community experience that has accumulated since its release. They add to this the latest promising information concerning intra-arterial thrombolysis, which is still under investigation and more speculative sections concerning possible new avenues of clinical research such as combining intravenous thr- bolysis with neuroprotective therapies or intra-arterial thrombolysis. A wealth of factual information is supplemented by chapters containing sage opinion from Drs. Lyden and Caplan concerning the logistical, economic, and procedural issues that have been generated since the advent of this technology. Importantly, diagnosis does not take a back seat to therapeutics as illustrated by sections devoted to eva- ation of the stroke patient, very useful illustrative cases and clinical comments, and chapters on the latest in imaging as applied to this field.

Download or read book Thrombolytic Therapy in Acute Ischemic Stroke written by Werner Hacke and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last decade scientists in both basic and clinical research have renew ed their interest in the potential role of thrombolytic therapy in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. The reevaluation of this approach was kindled by our growing knowledge of the pathogenesis of thrombotic and embolic stroke and by the development of new thrombolytic agents. With no proven therapy for acute ischemic stroke available, the potential value of early pharmacologic recanalization of occluded vessels in the management of acute stroke patients - an approach that has been supported by animal experiments and a limited number of uncontrolled clinical pilot studies - is again under scrutiny. A sym posium on "Thrombolysis in Acute Cerebral Ischemia" was held in Heidel berg, Germany, in May 1990 to summarize and discuss the pathophysiological background for thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke and the recent ex perimental and clinical experience with the new generation of thrombolytic agents. The editors are fortunate to be able to include authoritative manuscripts from almost all the speakers at the symposium. These include reports of work by the most active investigators in this challenging field. The editors wish to express their gratitude to all the contributors for the additional work they have undertaken. Additionally, we would like to thank Springer-Verlag, Heidelberg, for its generous assistance in the preparation and rapid publication of this volume. Heidelberg, August 1990 WERNER HACKE GREGORY J.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thrombolytic Therapy for Stroke is intended for physicians who will be treating patients in the first few hours after stroke: neurologists, neurosurgeons, emergency medicine physicians, internists, and radiologists. In some areas, fam ily medicine general practice physicians may provide the majority of acute stroke care. We will provide the reader with all the data necessary to understand the utility and limitations of thrombolytic therapy. By reading the protocols, and working through the case tutorials, the reader will become sufficiently familiar with the indications and contraindications of thrombolytic therapy to begin evalu ating potential patients. Although nothing can replace direct instruction by more experienced physicians, we hope that by imparting our accumulated knowledge we may guide those physicians who cannot attend a "hands-on" workshop, or who, having heard the appropriate lectures, feel the need for further guidance. We will review the scientific rationale for thrombolysis: first, most ischemic stroke is caused by thrombo-emboli; second, a portion of brain, the penumbra, remains salvageable for a few hours after vascular occlusion; and third, promptly delivered thrombolysis can remove the offending occlusion and restore cerebral blood flow to the penumbra in time to salvage brain and neurologic function. Then we will review the preclinical development of thrombolytics for stroke pa tients and the early pilot trials. Next, we will present the pivotal clinical trials that demonstrated the efficacy and safety of thrombolysis.
