Abstract

✓ A modification of the fibrin plate method was developed to measure fibrinolysis in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage and those receiving antifibrinolytic agents. During the past 2 years, 21 patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms received epsilon aminocaproic acid. Plasma and cerebrospinal fluid were monitored in 15 of these patients. Dosage factors, duration of action, and complications of therapy are presented. Fibrinolysis in normal plasma and cerebrospinal fluid is also discussed.
