Filter by:Breast reduction mammoplasty (BRM) is among the most commonly performed procedures in plastic surgery. However, postoperative hematoma is one of the most common complications following BRM. Hematoma-related complications include unplanned surgery, need for blood transfusion, wound healing issues, and unfavorable surgical outcomes. Tranexamic acid has emerged in the literature as a promising agent that reduces perioperative blood loss and need for transfusion. However, despite its consistently reported efficacy, low cost, and favorable safety profile, tranexamic acid remains underutilized in plastic surgery. The investigators propose a prospective, double-blinded randomized controlled study of the efficacy of tranexamic acid in reducing hematoma development in patients undergoing reduction mammoplasty. The investigators hope to contribute to the growing body of literature supporting tranexamic acid to reduce unwanted surgical bleeding.
Pocket hematoma is a known complication of pacemaker (PM) implantation. Pocket hematoma is accompanied by a local discomfort associated with the infiltration of subcutaneous tissue. In some cases, this complication requires repeated surgical revisions, which increases the risk of infection, and increases the duration of a hospital stay. The search for ways to prevent bleeding from the PM pocket is of great practical interest. This question is especially acute in relation to patients who are constantly on anticoagulation and/or antiplatelet therapy. A number of authors propose to carry out complete or partial cancellation of these drugs for the period before surgery and in the early postoperative period. In our opinion, this approach in most cases carries a potential risk to the health of patients, especially in the case of patients who have previously undergone surgical correction of valve insufficiency and/or who have undergone percutaneous endovascular interventions. The use of local hemostatic drugs is one of the promising directions for increasing the efficiency of intraoperative hemostasis. The haemostatic solution "Haemoblock" has shown its hemostatic potential in general surgical practice. The possibilities of "Haemoblock" in the prevention of pocket hematoma have not been studied. The hemostatic effect of "Haemoblock" is achieved within 1-2 minutes due to the formation of a clot with blood plasma proteins, first of all with albumin. As a result of the action of the "Haemoblock", a strong polymethacrylate membrane is formed on the surface of the wound, which, among other things, has a bactericidal effect.
