Impaired endogenous fibrinolysis is an important predictor for increased risk of stroke and myocardial infarction. Acute exercise can enhance fibrinolysis, primarily by stimulating short-term increases in plasma tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), which is postulated to protect against atherothrombotic events. No prior studies have examined the fibrinolytic response to exercise in stroke survivors despite their high risk for recurrent stroke and myocardial infarction. The purpose of this study was to assess the fibrinolytic response to acute submaximal exercise in chronic hemiparetic stroke patients.
