Filter by:Bleeding after total thyroidectomy remains a rare event that affects early postoperative morbidity, occurring in 0.3% up to 4.2% of cases. Intraoperative bleeding is an unpleasant complication, and it is often easily manageable though postoperative bleeding may represent a life-threatening condition for the patient. Between January 2019 to February 2022 , 250 consecutive patients were listed for thyroidectomy. The Investigators selected 178 patients and divided them in two groups based on the execution of the Valsalva Manoeuvre. The purpose of the investigator is to clarify whether the routine intraoperative execution of a Valsalva manoeuvre (VM) may affect the detection of bleeding that would otherwise remain occult and therefore may manifest in the postoperative period.
investigator will see the efficacy of tranexamic acid in limb salvage surgery patients which will prevent blood loss and help in conservation of blood products.
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.
Blood loss quantification during surgery remains unreliable and inaccurate. The purpose of the study is compare several methods of blood loss quantification in real surgical settings and to analyze the effect of blood loss on postoperative complications.
Patients who were using anticoagulant or antiaggregant medications for any reason and underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-BT) or transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or open prostatectomy (OP) due to BPH will be compared with those who were not using anticoagulant or antiplatelet medication. The rates of postoperative clot retention, presence of hematuria, reoperation due to hematuria, blood transfusion and re-admissions due to hematuria in the first postoperative month will be compared.
In two randomized clinical trials the investigators have demonstrated that continuous postoperative pericardial flushing (CPPF) therapy can reduce postoperative blood loss and bleeding-related complications after cardiac surgery and that CPPF therapy is safe and feasible in an experimental setting. The Haermonics investigational device is a novel medical device that enables CPPF therapy to be used in daily clinical setting. The aim of this study is three-fold. First, to evaluate the safety and functionality of the Haermonics investigational device. Secondly, to investigate the effect of CPPF therapy on bleeding related complications in the adulty cardiac surgery population. Thirdly, to explore the effect of CPPF therapy on intraluminal chest tube clogging.
Comparison Study Between Oxytocin Versus Tranexamic Acid and Ethamsylate Versus Normal Saline as Pre-operative Administration.
This is a single-center, single-blind, randomized parallel superiority trial comparing two groups; Sternum GuardTM as the treatment arm and Bone Wax as the active control group. Both investigated modalities are materials used during sternotomy for covering the sewn sternal edge. The primary outcomes of this study comprised of four parameters; namely surgical site infection (superficial or deep infection), sternal dehiscence, hemostatic effect, and surgeon's satisfaction rate. The first three primary outcomes were assessed during the operation, at the end of the hospital stay, 14 days, and 30-days postoperative.
To obtain hemorrhage rate after coblation tonsillectomy, and to investigate risk factors of hemorrhage after coblation tonsillectomy in children.
Sixty patients undergoing TKA were divided into three groups, then three different intro-operative articular cavity perfusion treatment was given according to the randomized, double-blind and controlled rule. One way ANOVA analysis on visual analogue scale (VAS) score, functional recovery, drainage, and edema of the affected limb were performed to assess the efficiency of the treatment in the following three days after the operation.
