Abstract Background intravenous recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (r-tPA) is a proven intervention for acute ischemic stroke patients. The rationale behind the use of r-tPA in ischemic stroke is breaking down the clot and recanalization of the occluded blood vessels. The restoration of blood vessel patency is meaningful only if the brain tissue of the ischemic area is still viable. Intravenous thrombolysis showed moderate benefit upon administration between three and four and half hours from stroke onset. Aim of the Work assess the risk factors that lead to occurrence of hemorrhagic transformation in patients with acute ischemic stroke received intravenous thrombolytic during their hospital stay. Patients and Methods This is a retrospective cross-sectional observational study conducted in Ain Shams University hospital and Ain Shams University Specialized hospital. 200 patients were included in the study. All were in-patients, admitted in the stroke unit either in Ain Shams University hospital or Ain Shams University Specialized hospital. Patients were diagnosed by neurological history, clinical examination and radiological investigations (CT scan with or without MRI brain stroke protocol). The diagnosis of stroke must be made by a neurologist. Results there was statistically significant association found between hemorrhagic transformation and smoking and also onset of stroke while no statistically significant association found with BP during injection and RBS. Conclusion there was highly statistically significant associaton between hemorrhagic transformation and onset of stroke with p-value = 0.006 and OR (95% CI) 5.92 (1.656–21.165) while there was statistically significant association found with smoking with p-value = 0.012 and OR (95% CI) 2.424 (1.214–4.844).

SummaryModern information technology offers new opportunities for the storage and manipulation of hospital information. A computer-based hospital information system, dedicated to urology and nephrology, was designed and developed in our center. It involves in principle the employment of a program that allows the analysis of non-restricted, non-codified texts for the retrieval and processing of clinical data and its operation by non-computer-specialized hospital staff.This Hospital Information System now plays a vital role in the efficient provision of a good quality service and is used in daily routine and research work in this hospital. This paper describes this specialized Hospital Information System.

Platelet Release

SummaryPlasma levels of β-thromboglobulin (BTG) and fibrinopeptide A (FPA), markers of platelet release and thrombin generation respectively, were measured in 48 patients within 3 days of admission to hospital for acute chest pain. Twenty-one patients had a confirmed myocardial infarction (MI); 15 had unstable angina without infarction; and 12 had chest pain due to noncardiac causes. FPA and BTG were also measured in 23 control hospital patients of similar age. Mean plasma BTG levels were not significantly different in the 4 groups. Mean plasma FPA levels were significantly higher in all 3 groups with acute chest pain when compared to the control subjects (p < 0.01), but there were no significant differences between the 3 groups. Increased FPA levels in patients with acute chest pain are not specific for myocardial infarction, nor for ischaemic chest pain.
