Tenecteplase vs. Alteplase for Intravenous Thrombolytic Therapy of Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
ConclusionsThis meta-analysis showed that tenecteplase was not inferior to alteplase in early thrombolytic therapy in patients with AIS, and was even better than alteplase on some efficacy outcomes with no significant differences in safety. However, as a result of some inherent limitations of this study, more high-quality prospective clinical studies are needed to confirm these results.

Evolving Thrombolytics: from Alteplase to Tenecteplase
AbstractAlteplase has been the primary thrombolytic used in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke since thrombolysis was first established as an effective treatment of acute ischemic stroke in 1995. Tenecteplase, a genetically modified tissue plasminogen activator, has gained attention as an attractive alternative to alteplase given its practical workflow advantages and possible superior efficacy in large vessel recanalization. As more data is analyzed both from randomized trials and non-randomized patient registries, there is mounting support that tenecteplase appears to be at least equally, if not more, safe and potenti...

Intravenous thrombolysis of ischemic stroke-Current status
Nervenarzt. 2023 May 30. doi: 10.1007/s00115-023-01500-9. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIntravenous thrombolysis (IVT) treatment with alteplase (rtPA) is an essential part of the routine treatment of patients with ischemic stroke since its introduction in the late 1990s. Rapid treatment is of essential importance. For patients with an unclear time window, various mismatch concepts have been established to identify salvageable brain tissue prior to IVT. Numerous official contraindications for rtPA are not evidence-based; for example, current data from observational studies show that systemic thrombolytic treatment is possib...

Effect of Intravenous Thrombolytic Dose of Alteplase on Long-Term Prognosis in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke
ConclusionsStandard-dose alteplase treatment reduced the risk of long-term recurrence of AIS after hospital discharge and the alteplase dose was not associated with the long-term risk of death from AIS.

Effects of predictive nursing intervention on cognitive impairment and neurological function in ischemic stroke patients
ConclusionPredictive nursing intervention is beneficial to improve the effects of thrombolytic therapy in patients with ischemic stroke, which improves the neurological, cognitive and motor functions of patients, and reduces the occurrence of complications, suggesting an important clinical application value.
