Brief Summary:
The specific objective of this trial is to determine the lowest dose and dose frequency possible with the best pharmacokinetic and safety profile and it's ability to remove a blood clot from the ventricular system.
Detailed Description:
The purpose of this trial is to determine the efficacy and pharmacokinetics of intraventricular injections of multiple low doses of rt-PA. Sixteen subjects were already randomized to receive intraventricular injections of with 0.3 mg or 1.0 mg of rt-PA every 12 hours for up to 8 doses. Results of this stage (n=16) were then analyzed and the most effective dose of 1.0 mg was chosen to be used in the second stage (n=36) to determine the optimal frequency of dosing. We propose to test if this intervention facilitates more rapid clot resolution, complete recovery function and decreased mortality from this condition.
