Zusammenfassung

Der ischämische Schlaganfall ist ein medizinischer Notfall, der gemäß dem „Time-is-brain“-Konzept schnellstmöglich behandelt werden muss. Die derzeit einzig nachgewiesen wirksame Akutbehandlung stellt die i.v.-Gabe von „recombinant tissue plasminogen activator“ (rt-PA) dar, die innerhalb eines 4,5-h-Fensters wirksam und sicher, allerdings bislang nur innerhalb der ersten 3 h nach Symptombeginn zugelassen ist (0,9 mg/kgKG, Maximum von 90 mg, 10% der Gesamtdosis als Bolus, die restlichen 90% im Anschluss als Infusion über 60 min). Den therapeutischen Effekt Magnetresonanztomographie(MRT)-basierter thrombolytischer Therapien jenseits des 4,5-h-Fensters gilt es noch zu untersuchen. Bei proximalen Verschlüssen der A. cerebri media führt die katheterbasierte intraarterielle Behandlung mit einem Plasminogenaktivator innerhalb eines 6-h-Zeitfensters zu einer signifikanten Verbesserung des Outcomes und kann als individueller Heilversuch angesehen werden. Akute Basilarisverschlüsse sollten in spezialisierten Zentren mit intraarterieller Applikation von Urokinase, rt-PA oder mechanischer Rekanalisation behandelt werden; hierbei ist die i.v.-Thrombolyse auch jenseits des 3-h-Zeitfensters eine akzeptable Alternative.

Abstract

Ischemic stroke is a medical emergency and must be treated as quickly as possible according to the “time-is-brain” concept. At present, intravenous administration of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) within the first 4.5 h from stroke onset is the only effective treatment but is currently still only approved within the first 3 h from onset of symptoms (0.9 mg/kg body weight, maximum dose 90 mg, 10% of the cumulative dose as bolus, remaining 90% subsequently infused within 60 min). The therapeutic effect of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) based thrombolytic therapy beyond the 4.5 h time window remains to be proven. Proximal occlusions of the middle cerebral artery can be treated successfully within the first 6 h from stroke onset by catheter-based intra-arterial administration of plasminogen activator leading to a significant improvement of outcome. Acute basilar artery occlusion should be treated in specialized centres using intra-arterial application of urokinase, rt-PA or mechanical recanalization but intravenous thrombolysis beyond the 3 h window is an acceptable alternative.
