SummaryTo facilitate communication between investigators, the Committee on Thrombolytic Agents of the National Heart Institute suggests standardized reagents and assay methods for the measurement of standard preparations of plasmin, plasminogen, and urokinase with use of casein, fibrin and synthetic esters as substrates.

SummaryA derivative of human lys-plasmin in which the active site has been reversibly acylated (BRL 26920; p-anisoyl human lys-plasmin) has been examined as a fibrinolytic agent in a previously described rabbit model of venous thrombosis and shown to be significantly more active and less fibrinogenolytic than free plasmin. A p-anisoylated derivative of a streptokinase (SK)-activated plasmin preparation was significantly less fibrinogenolytic in vivo than the non-acylated enzyme. Acylation increased the fibrinolytic activity of preparations of SK-plasmin activator complexes. BRL 26921, the active site anisoylated derivative of the primary 2-chain SK-plasminogen complex was the most potent fibrinolytic agent studied. SK-Val442-plasminogen complexes, free or acylated, were biologically inactive in this model and confirm the essential nature of fibrin binding processes for effective thrombolysis in vivo.

Background: Cardiovascular complications that can cause severe catastrophic outcomes for both the mother and the fetus are rarely seen during pregnancy. Time to diagnosis is often delayed by a low degree of suspicion and atypical presentation. We report surgical strategies in three pregnant women with cardiovascular complications. Methods: A retrospective search from 2009 to 2016 identified three pregnant women who underwent urgent cardiac surgery. We used extracorporeal circulation (ECC) without cesarean section with careful follow-up of the fetuses during the perioperative and postoperative period. We used levosimendan as a potent inodilator in all patients to increase feto-placental blood flow and fetal heart rhythm.Results: Median time to diagnosis was 23.8 h (range 11.7-120 h) and median time from diagnosis to arrival in the operating theater was 9.8 h (range 7.4-19.8 h). One patient with prosthetic heart valve thrombosis underwent concomitant cesarean section prior to cardiac surgery. In a young pregnant woman who had spontaneous dissection of the left anterior descending artery, on-pump beating heart coronary artery bypass grafting was performed without cross clamping. Two and three months after surgery, cesarean sections were performed without any complication in two pregnant women.Conclusion: Because unusual cardiovascular complications are the main cause of maternal and/or fetus death during pregnancy, prompt and exact diagnosis is very important. Life-saving surgical strategy with the help of appropriate teams are necessary to optimize outcome for both mother and baby.
