What is thrombolysis in cerebral infarction

Thrombolytic therapy for cerebral infarction is a treatment that needs to be widely publicized. Cerebral infarction occurs because the blood vessels in the brain are blocked, which leads to brain cell necrosis, so the most important goal of treating cerebral infarction is to open the blocked blood vessels. Thrombolysis means using a thrombolytic agent, such as rt-PA, to dissolve the blood clot inside the blood vessel through intravenous input, thus restoring the blood flow to normal and reducing the degree of brain cell damage. Early thrombolysis of cerebral infarction is very important and is currently a very effective method to treat cerebral infarction and reduce the degree of disability of patients. The public is urged to send patients with cerebral infarction to a stroke center for timely treatment. After timely treatment, the patient will be considered for thrombolysis or for further treatment, such as interventional therapy or other effective treatment.
