Although angiographic embolization has been introduced for preoperative management of spine metastases in 1975 and is suggested today by many authors in the management of such pathologies, it needs to be confirmed by RCT. It is a minimally invasive procedure, not free from complications. The recent meta-analyzes, due to the limited number of patients included are not exhaustive about the effectiveness of embolization in the reduction of the intraoperative bleeding, especially in the context of poor / moderate metastasis vascularization. We want to evaluate the efficacy of preoperative angiographic embolization of intermediate / poor vascularized spine metastases in reducing intraoperative blood loss during excision surgery.
transfusion-related decisions in the perioperative setting are often complex due to acute variations in the hemoglobin levels, which typically experience a progressive decrease within days. This process, commonly referred to as "hemoglobin drop" or "hemoglobin drift", has been observed to be highly variable among patients and reliant on several variables, such as the volemic status, fluid balance and blood loss. Although it has been investigated and some predictors have been identified, postoperative hemoglobin drop remains unpredictable and is not fully clarified. In consequence, hemoglobin levels' variations are frequently misunderstood, hindering the decision to transfuse.
Posterior spinal surgery for adult deformity is associated with high incidence of blood loss and need for blood transfusion and intraoperative blood salvage, with associated increased cost and risk for perioperative complications. Tranexamic acid (TXA) is relatively inexpensive anti-fibrinolytic agent that has been proven effective for decreasing intraoperative blood loss in various surgical specialties. Intravenous TXA (ivTXA) is routinely used at our institution for adult spinal deformity cases. Meanwhile, topical TXA (tTXA) is an attractive alternative/adjunct to ivTXA used with good results in orthopedic arthroplasty and cardiac surgery. To the investigators' knowledge, no data exists in the literature on the use of tTXA in either adult or pediatric spinal deformity surgery. The goal of this study is to determine the role tTXA has an adjunct to ivTXA in decreasing perioperative blood loss, drainage, transfusion requirements and length of stay following adult deformity spine surgery.
The aim of this study is to investigate the hypothesis that single dose of tranexamic acid (TXA) preoperatively will lower blood loss and transfusion rate in elderly patients with hip fractures (intertrochanteric or Subcapital), that will be treated with intramedullary nailing and cemented hemiarthroplasty respectively. After application of inclusion and exclusion criteria, patients will be randomized in two groups. Group 1 will include patients that receive preoperatively single dose of TXA (15mg/kg) and Group 2 will include patients that receive normal saline (control group).
The effect of tranexamic acid (TXA) on bleeding and improvement of surgical field during ear exploration surgery is not clear yet. This study will conducted to answer this question.
Purpose is to identify if misoprostol in addition to local vasopressin decreases blood loss when compared to vasopressin alone, which is our current practice at this time. The study will be double-blinded with neither the patient nor the researcher knowing whether the placebo or the misoprostol was given. We will monitor patients for decrease in hemoglobin and hematocrit, need for transfusion, and operative time among other measures of perioperative morbidity to see if the addition of misoprostol makes a significant difference. We will also observe patients to see if there are any side effects of misoprostol that make its use undesirable.
The objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the effects of intravenous and topical administration of tranexamic acid during revision hip arthroplasty on blood loss, allogenic blood transfusion rates, length of hospital stay and perioperative complications.
This will be a multicentre, randomised, controlled and prospective clinical trial. All participants provided their written informed consent to participate in a randomized trial that examined the effects of low-level MAP (60-70 mmHg) vs. high-level MAP (90-100 mmHg) in elderly patients (65 or more years of age) during noncardiothoracic surgery under general anesthesia. The investigators hypothesise high-level blood presure of the intervention for reducing the incidence of post-operative complications.
