Abstract:Background:
Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a type of ventricular bleeding that results in significant morbidity and mortality. Multiple studies have investigated the use of urokinase in IVH treatment. The use of urokinase may lead to higher rates of hematoma resolution and lower mortality rates. However, further studies are required to determine efficacy of urokinase administration. This study examined the association between urokinase use, IVH volume reduction, and clinical outcomes.
