[Continuous intravenous infusion versus intermittent administration of streptokinase in patients with deep venous thrombosis of the lower extremity].
In a multicenter randomized trial, the efficacy and safety of two streptokinase (SK) dosage regimens have been evaluated in patients with proximal deep vein thrombosis of inferior limbs. Twenty-nine patients received SK by a continuous intravenous infusion (250,000 IU as initial dose, 100,000 IU/h as maintenance dose), and 26 patients were treated with intermittent SK administration (500,000 IU as initial dose, followed by 250,000 IU every 12 h). Thrombolytic therapy was continued for 4 days, then the patients received heparin for 5 days and oral anticoagulant for 3 months. The results of treatment as judged by phlebographic examinations were similar in the two groups. Complete, substantial or partial thrombolysis was achieved in 52% of patients in the continuous infusion group and in 58% of patients in the intermittent treatment group. During SK administration, major bleeding complications occurred in 6 patients treated by continuous infusion and in 2 of the second group. The results showed that the intermittent SK administration is as effective and safe as the method of continuous SK infusion in the treatment of deep vein thrombosis.
