  • Title: [Thrombolysis in acute massive lung embolism].
    Author: Marbet GA.
    Journal: Schweiz Med Wochenschr; 1988 Aug 09; 118(31-32):1138-41. PubMed ID: 3175566.
    Abstract:
    Thrombolytic therapy of pulmonary embolism reduces total pulmonary resistance more rapidly than heparin alone. In massive pulmonary embolism this hemodynamic benefit usually outweighs the moderately increased bleeding risk if contra-indications are strictly observed. Practical dosage regimens for streptokinase and urokinase are proposed.
