Abstract:Objective To observe therapeutic effect of Edaravone plus Alteplase on hemorrhagic transformation in acute cerebral infarction patients. Methods A total of 116 cases with acute cerebral infarction admitted in our hospital during January 2014 to January 2017 were involved in this stud. They were randomly divided into observation group and control group (n = 58). Patients in control group were given Alteplase, and patients in the observation group were given Edaravone in addition to Alteplase. The NIHSS score and ADL score before and after treatment, curative effect, incidence of HT, serum PTX-3 and Lp-PLA2 before and after treatment, and adverse reactions were compared. Results The NIHHS scores were significantly reduced in both groups after treatment (P < 0.05), and patients in observation group experienced significant lowered score than that in control group (P < 0.05). The total effective rate in observation group was enhanced compared with control group (P < 0.05). The incidence of hemorrhagic conversion in observation group was increased when compared with that in control group (P < 0.05). Expression of PTX-3 and Lp-PLA2 decreased in observation group when compared with that in control group (P < 0.05). Total incidence of adverse reactions was comparable between observation group and control group (P < 0.05). Conclusions Edaravone combined with Alteplase effectively improves nerve function defect, and prevent hemorrhagic transformation in treatment of acute cerebral infarction.
