Thrombolysis with tissue plasminogen activator treatment in Hebbal, Bangalore

In thrombolytic therapy, drugs are administered to dissolve or break up blood clots, which are the main cause of strokes and heart attacks.

Management 

An emergency procedure called thrombectomy can be used to treat a small number of severe ischaemic strokes. As a result of the procedure, blood clots are removed, and blood flow to the brain is restored. Blood clots in the large arteries of the brain are the only cause of ischaemic strokes that are effectively treated by thrombectomy. 

In order for the procedure to be most effective, it should be initiated as soon as possible after a stroke. An artery, often in the groyne, is inserted with a catheter during the procedure. The procedure of tissue plasminogen activator treatment in Hebbal, Bangalore involves inserting a small device into an artery in the brain. It is then possible to remove the blood clot using the device or suction. The procedure can be performed under local or general anaesthesia.  

Aspirin is an antiplatelet medication. In most cases, aspirin will be prescribed on a regular basis. Aspirin is both a painkiller and an antiplatelet, which reduces the likelihood of another blood clot developing. Other antiplatelet medications may also be used in conjunction with clopidogrel and dipyridamole. Contact Manipal Hospitals now.
