[Study of the bleeding mechanism during fibrinolysis induced by streptokinase in the rabbit (author's transl)].
Our aim in this work has been to obtain precisions on the bleeding mechanism during fibrinolysis induced by streptokinase in the rabbit. Haemostasis was studied in vivo by the method oh Honour and Russell. The injection of 40 000 u/kg of streptokinase in 10 minutes induces rapidly fibrinolysis, which lasts for approximately one hour which is not accompanied by changes either in coagulation factors, or in platelet function. In vivo : . the adhesion of platelets to the vascular lesion is normal; . platelet aggregation is normal as is the formation of intravascular thrombi; . on the other hand the intra mural platelet thrombus is unstable. The embolization of the intravascular thrombi is responsible for new hemorrhages which can be correlated with the intensity of fibrinolysis. Thus, even in the absence of fibrinogenolysis, of fibrinogen degradation products FPD, of abnormal thrombin generation and of altered platelet function, the fibrinolytic activity induced by streptokinase could alone be responsible for bleeding episodes, occuring during thrombolytic treatment by streptokinase in man.
