Filter by:The research team proposes a prospective, observational study to better understand how TEG can be useful in guiding clinical practice in the Main OR for subject's undergoing high transfusion risk surgeries. Intraoperatively, transfusion of blood products is frequently required to restore oxygen carrying capacity, perfusion and improve coagulation. Both under and over transfusion pose significant risks, particularly to pediatric patients with small starting intravascular volumes. Thromboelastography (TEG) is a validated method of dynamically assessing intraoperative coagulopathy via functional assay. However, while FDA approved and widely used in the adult setting, TEG is not commonly utilized in the setting of bleeding pediatric patients. Recently, TEG has been made available at BCH for clinical purposes and is being used solely in the cardiac surgery setting. The investigators aim to provide TEG data for non-cardiac pediatric surgical cases with a high risk of intraoperative blood loss in order to assess the impact of this tool on intraoperative management.
Surgical hemostasis has become one of the fundamental principles for the advancement of surgery. The use of hemostatic agents is standard in many surgical specialties, although the lack of consensus or standardized classifications to determine intraoperative bleeding has led to their inappropriate selection on many occasions. The recommendations of international organizations highlight the need for a bleeding severity scale validated in clinical studies that allows selecting the hemostatic agent that best suits each case.
Traumatic brain injury is one of the most common reasons for visits to the Emergency Department. More than 90% of patients who have suffered from head trauma present with a mild traumatic brain injury. Most of these patients do not present any symptom at the time of diagnosis thus delaying the detection. CEREBO®, a non-invasive, portable, rapid, point-of-care intracranial haemorrhage detector can avoid delayed detection by decreasing the time from injury to the initial CT scan. The study aims at assessing the summative usability of the device by determining its ease of use, ease of learning and satisfaction among the medical health professionals. The participants will be trained before the study and will be assessed periodically. Each participant will use the device on at least 10 subjects.
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is the leading cause of death and disability across the globe. Time from injury to treatment is the most critical factor that determines the patient's recovery. Mild TBI with no apparent symptoms are often left undiagnosed, thus delaying the treatment and hence recovery. CEREBO® is a non-invasive, rapid, near-infrared based, point-of-care device that can detect an intracranial bleed at an early stage.
Post partum haemorrhage is a concerning situation in maternity wards, though it is not the first cause of maternal mortality anymore. It has been already shown that low fibrinogen level is a major predictive factor of massive bleeding after delivery. In this situation, the early knowledge of fibrinogen level could enhance care of women experiencing post partum haemorrhage. In a cohort of women suffering from post partum haemorrhage, this study will evaluate whether assessing fibrinogen level would be faster using the Quantra® system than the standard coagulation test.
Reduction of intra-operative blood loss
This was a randomized, single-center trial. On the basis of standard-of-care, patients in the treatment group inhaled H2-O2 (66% hydrogen; 33% oxygen) at 3 L/min via nasal cannula by using the Hydrogen/Oxygen Generator (model AMS-H-03, Shanghai Asclepius Meditech Co., Ltd., China) during a 7-day stay in the intensive care unit. Patients in the control group received standard-of-care (consisting of oxygen therapy) alone. This study intends to apply Hydrogen/Oxygen Generator in clinical patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), exploring the role of hydrogen-oxygen mixed gas inhalation therapy in early brain injury, and the prevention of cerebral vasospasm and delayed cerebral ischemia, finally providing a scientific basis for hydrogen treatment of aSAH.
The REACH trial is a prospective multicenter double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial with blinded end-point adjudication. Participants are randomized (1:1) to receive either sodium aescinate or matching placebo (0.9% saline). The primary outcome is the absolute volume of PHE evaluated based on brain CT image on day 14 after ICH.
Discuss the efficacy and safety of argon plasma coagulation （APC）in comparison with clip closure for preventing colorectal post-procedure bleeding（PPB） after hot snare polypectomy（HSP）; analyze the risk factors and the cost-effectiveness of bleeding prophylaxis strategies with Decision Tree Analytical Method.
Rationale: Intrasaccular neck occlusion devices have been used for unruptured aneurysm without safety concerns and good occlusion rates. In the setting of a subarachnoid hemorrhage, they could improve the rate of complete occlusion without safety concerns. Aim: To explore the safety and efficacy of intrasaccular neck occlusion devices in patients with acute subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by a ruptured saccular aneurysm by a one arm prospective registry. Study outcome: The primary outcomes is the rate of complete occlusion (Raymond-Roy I) and rebleeding at one year follow-up. The primary safety outcome is rate of rebleeding during the admission.
