Pathophysiology of streptokinase-induced hypotension in acute myocardial infarction: a systematic review of clinical evidence.

Introduction: Despite the common occurrence of streptokinase-induced hypotension among patients with acute myocardial infarction, the underlying pathophysiology remains obscure and poorly understood. Our study aimed to pool clinical evidence on the potential mechanism of streptokinase-induced hypotension through a systematic review of the literature.

Material And Methods: We conducted literature search from Medline, Scopus and Web of Science on clinical studies related to streptokinase-induced hypotension.
