Fig. 2 Relation between levels of tPA in central venous blood and in perfusion solution. Relative concentration of tPA in systemic blood was calculated as tPA levels in central venous blood divided by respective tPA levels in perfusion solution times 100. It increased during perfusion and after 60 minutes reached 1.4% of concentration in perfusion solution. tPA, Tissue plasminogen activator.
