Abstract

Intravenous (i.v.) thrombolytic therapy of acute ischemic stroke is highly effective in selected group of patients. The most common complications of systemic thrombolysis are intracerebral haematomas, allergic reactions and acute hypotension. The early reocclusion/rethrombosis of intracranial arteries also may influency the efficacy of thrombolysis. The clinical cases of allergic reactions, acute hypotension and early reocclusion in the first 24 hours after i.v. thrombolysis are described in the article. It is concluded that monitoring of neurological status and haemodynamic parameters during and 24 hours after i.v. thrombolysis are the important factors of good outcome.
