Filter by:This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind study investigating whether intravenous tranexamic acid has any effect on blood loss during maxillofacial trauma surgery, or the subsequent postoperative sequelae. Intraoperative bleeding and postoperative ecchymosis and edema are objectively rated and complications are noted.
The aim of the current study is to screen different causes and characteristics of Gastrointestinal bleeding in Chronic Renal Failure patients at Assuit University Hospital according to their stages based on e GFR (Stage I to IV), in order to assess different modalities of therapeutic intervention from medical therapy up to therapeutic intervention.
The pathophysiological mechanisms of aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH) involve early brain injury (EBI) and delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). Several mechanisms contribute to EBI pathogenesis, including cell death, inflammatory response, oxidative stress, excitotoxicity, microcirculatory dysfunction, microthrombosis and cortical spreading depolarization. All are suggested to be linked due to common pathogenic pathways and direct interaction. Despite advances in research of diagnostics and treatment strategies, brain injury remains the major cause of death and disability in SAH patients. There is no sufficient treatment of SAH and its devastating consequences known so far. Developing and improving diagnostic methods to monitor SAH patients and to evaluate efficacy of treatment strategies are essential in SAH research. These include neuroimaging, biomarkers, and other parameters such as invasive multimodal neuromonitoring and intraoperative electrophysiological monitoring. Cerebral vasospasm (CV) - mostly responsible for DCI - can be depicted on angiograms. Altogether, tremendous efforts have been taken to conquer the occurrence and sustainability of CV. The mortality of patients suffering aSAH rises up to 50% if the patients' condition is critical (Hunt&Hess (HH) Grade 5, WFNS Grade 5, modified Fisher Grade 4). Reports of beneficial outcome in patients with pre-existing CSF shunting have been published. The hypothesis of early CSF reapplication to the bloodstream, in order to prevent CV seems to be positively approved by the mentioned reports. Nevertheless, no data could be found on the mechanisms of action in this phenomenon. To confirm the presence of interaction of the mechanisms of EBI and evaluate the application of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), a pilot clinical trial was planned. Due to the lack of validated animal models for aSAH it is necessary to perform the trial first-in-human. A pilot (proof of concept) trial - is done through inclusion of 10 patients with severe aSAH (≥HH4). According to clinical guidelines, these patients receive external ventricular drainages in order to drain CSF and lower intracranial pressure. An interim analysis of data will be performed after inclusion and treatment of 5 patients. Blood-/CSF-sampling for further analysis will be collected before, during and after treatment according to the study protocol.
Dijon University Hospital and the Dijon-based NVH Medicinal Company have developed a recombinant mini-collagen NVH020B with platelet and Willebrand factor binding activity. Its small size and granular, non-fibrillar presentation make it suitable for use as an injectable hemostat in patients with a hemorrhage or other emergency under antiplatelet therapy.
This is a prospective, observational study of 60 adult patients anticoagulated with bivalirudin for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The study aims to identify the most precise early warning blood test or panel of blood tests to predict bleeding in patients on bivalirudin/ECMO. The project will involve comparing currently used blood tests with an extended panel of coagulation and metabolic blood tests with the aim of early warning of impending bleeding to allow intervention in the form of adjusted bivalirudin dose, modification of other risk factors, or transfusion with hemostatic products targeted to documented coagulation test abnormalities.
Prospective comparison of the incidence of heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) in women of reproductive age treated with direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs)
To determine the safety of antithrombotic treatment discontinuation 12 months following successful transcatheter PFO closure.
There is currently limited information regarding the role of blood management in the benign gynecologic population and specifically, in patients who are scheduled to undergo surgery for fibroids and/or abnormal uterine bleeding. A thorough search through PubMed and clinicaltrials.gov did not reveal any studies on this issue. In 2019 at CCF only 2% of gyn patients at Main Campus were referred to blood management, but 12.6% of the main campus gyn population had a Hb of <10.0 g/dL. The overall goal of this study is to evaluate the role of preoperative blood management in optimizing surgical outcomes by reducing the co-morbidities associated with postoperative blood transfusion.
The study examines, whether the use of the HemoPill Acute ® capsule in case of suspected nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding can identify cases in which endoscopy can be delayed to 48-96 hours without risk to the patient.
The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of abbreviated bowel preparation on repeated colonoscopy in patients with PPB.
