Alteplase, sold under the brand name Activase among others, is a biosynthetic form of human tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA). It is a thrombolytic medication used to treat acute ischemic stroke, acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (a type of heart attack), pulmonary embolism associated with low blood pressure, and blocked central venous catheter.

Tissue-type plasminogen activator, short name tPA, is a protein that facilitates the breakdown of blood clots. It acts as an enzyme to convert plasminogen into its active form plasmin, the major enzyme responsible for clot breakdown. It is a serine protease (EC 3.4.21.68) found on endothelial cells lining the blood vessels.

It increases the risk of blood clots including from deep vein thrombosis, and of pulmonary embolism. [1] One copy of the mutation increases the risk of a blood clot from 1 in 1,000 per year to 2.5 in 1,000. [1] Two copies increases the risk to up to 20 in 1,000 per year. [1] Most people never develop a blood clot in their lifetimes. [1]
Blood thinners, Pain medication [1] Thrombophlebitis is a phlebitis ( inflammation of a vein ) related to a thrombus (blood clot). [ 2 ] When it occurs repeatedly in different locations, it is known as thrombophlebitis migrans ( migratory thrombophlebitis ).
This fibrinogen interferes with normal blood clotting and/or lysis of blood clots. The condition therefore may cause pathological bleeding and/or thrombosis . [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Acquired dysfibrinogenemia is a non-hereditary disorder in which fibrinogen is dysfunctional due to the presence of liver disease , autoimmune disease , a plasma cell ...
Coagulation, also known as clotting, is the process by which blood changes from a liquid to a gel, forming a blood clot.It results in hemostasis, the cessation of blood loss from a damaged vessel, followed by repair.
