Is the Drip-and-Ship Approach to Delivering Thrombolysis for Acute Ischemic Stroke Safe?

Abstract: Background-The drip-and-ship method of treating stroke patients may increase the use of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) in community hospitals.

“…Crude in-hospital mortality (10.9%) and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (5.7%) in patients treated by the drip and ship method were slightly higher compared with those in front-door patients, and these differences persisted after risk adjustment. Although there is increasing adoption of the use of the drip and ship paradigm in stroke systems, [6][7][8][9][10][11] there are limited data on either the safety of this method or the nature of post-tPA care delivery in community-based practice. Prompt recognition and management of neurological and hemodynamic changes in the early hours after ischemic stroke are essential for safety, including during the medical transport period for patients treated by the drip and ship method.…”

“…6 Available data using clinically abstracted variables on outcomes for drip and ship stroke have been limited to single-center and regional studies that may be subject to sampling bias and characteristics specific to individual regional networks. [7][8][9] National data have been published, but they are derived from claims data lacking clinical detail. 11 The generalizability of safety data, in particular, must be confirmed in patients treated in routine clinical practice because the drip and ship method becomes more commonly adopted.…”

“…44 A similar safety profile, showing no difference in the rate of sICH (6% vs 4.5%) or in-hospital mortality (10.6% vs 10.7%), was found in a series of 116 patients with AIS treated with thrombolysis at the OSH vs at the hub hospital. 45 In summary, immediate visual-audio interaction would increase patient access to stroke therapy and transfer for potential endovascular treatment.…”

“…Проведение ТЛТ у пациентов с ишемическим инсуль-том в вертебробазилярной системе (ВБС) имеет существен-ные особенности [57][58][59]. Одним из наиболее обсуждаемых вопросов, принципиально влияющих на тактику реперфу-зии в зависимости от пораженного бассейна, является про-должительность терапевтического окна, в течение которого ТЛТ безопасна и целесообразна.…”

“…Внутривенный тромболизис, как наиболее быстрый и технически простой метод, может быть проведен на пер-вом этапе терапии в клиниках, не оснащенных рентгенохи-рургической службой, с последующей транспортировкой больного в специализированный центр для эндоваскулярно-го вмешательства в случае отсутствия эффекта от внутривен-ного введения тромболитика. Опубликованы результаты ра-бот, демонстрирующие возможность реализации и безопас-ность подобной схемы (drip, ship, retrieve) у пациентов с ИИ [63,64]. Учитывая возможность проведения реперфузион-ной терапии у пациентов с вертербробазилярным инсультом в более широком терапевтическом окне, подобная организа-ционная схема с многоэтапной терапией могла бы стать предпочтительной для данной патологии.…”
