At present, whether the hepatitis B vaccine (HBV) can be vaccinated on time after neonatal surgery has become a common problem for children's families, neonatal surgeons, and vaccination departments, but there are few relevant studies at home and abroad, and there is no corresponding guide or consensus. In the early stage, our research team investigated the vaccination plans of the vaccination units in the main urban areas of Chongqing for such children through telephone follow-up, and found that the practices of each unit were different, all based on their own experience, and there was no clear evidence to support the vaccination or should not be vaccinated, which may cause some children to miss the best vaccination time or increase the risk of vaccination. The center is a relatively large neonatal surgery center in southwest China. The diagnosis and treatment of neonatal digestive tract malformations is at the leading level in China. It can carry out various neonatal operations such as neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis, congenital anorectal malformations, and congenital megacolon. On average, it carries out more than 30 third and fourth grade neonatal gastrointestinal operations every month. It has accumulated a lot of experience in the follow-up of newborns, There is a large amount of clinical data support for children who need to be vaccinated after surgery, so it is planned to follow up the second and third doses of hepatitis B vaccine and whether there are adverse reactions related to vaccination for children who need to be vaccinated after gastrointestinal surgery in the neonatal period, and at the same time check the production of HBsAb after vaccination, The immune response and adverse reactions of hepatitis B vaccine at different time points after surgery were studied to increase clinical evidence for the determination of hepatitis B vaccine vaccination program for newborns after surgery.
The main purpose of approaching the anemic patient is to provide and maintain hemoglobin levels that will allow oxygen to reach the tissue at an adequate level. This critical level may vary from patient to patient, the age of the patient and other accompanying diseases are among the determining factors. The most important factor in transfusion indication is the insufficiency of cardiopulmonary compensation mechanisms due to anemia in the patient and the patient becoming symptomatic. Red blood cell (RBC) transfusions are common in the treatment of cancer patients. In cancer patients, similar to other patient populations, the indication for RBC transfusion is to alleviate anemia, which is actually symptomatic. However, the decision to transfuse should not be guided solely by the hemoglobin concentration. With this study, it is aimed to develop clinical practices to prevent unnecessary transfusion practices in lung cancer patients, to encourage the application of other supportive treatment options, and to take preventive measures before anemia develops
To prospectively study the effect of adherence to ERAS and PBM programs on early outcomes after colorectal surgery
Background/significance: Over 100,000 early preterm infants are born annually in the United States and suffer morbidity and mortality during hospitalization in a neonatal intensive care unit. One such condition is hypothermia. Hypothermia has been defined as a contributor of neonatal morbidity by The World Health Organization. Another acute morbidity is anemia in preterm infants due to the prematurity and frequent laboratory testing. Anemia requires correction with a packed red blood cells (PRBC) transfusion. Researchers have previous noted hypothermia during PRBC transfusions in preterm infants. Objective: To use a commercial blood warmer in the neonatal intensive care setting to prevent hypothermic body temperatures (<36.5°C) in very preterm infants during PRBC transfusions. Process: Based on a completed national survey of neonatal intensive care nurses and PRBC transfusion practices and personal NICU experience, we designed this randomized control trial in 140 very preterm infants in a Southeastern, level III neonatal intensive care unit. Outcomes: Very preterm infants (<32 weeks gestational age) receiving PRBC transfusions warmed by the commercial blood warmer will have a lower incidence of central body hypothermia post transfusion (temperatures <36.5C), compared to infants receiving PRBC transfusions by standard of care. Very preterm infants (<32 weeks gestational age) receiving PRBC transfusions warmed by the commercial blood warmer will have a higher post transfusion mean abdominal skin body temperature when compared to infants receiving PRBC transfusions by standard of care. Hypothesis : The results of this trial could show that very preterm infants experience hypothermia during PRBC transfusions, and thus provide the evidence to support the need for warmed PRBC transfusions in very preterm infants nationwide.
Based on a review of about 10,000 patients undergoing cardiac surgery under CPB in West China Hospital of Sichuan University and the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University, we try to evalute the effect of blood transfusion on outcomes in cardiac surgery.
Postpartum haemorrhage is the common cause of maternal death worldwide. The primary purpose of this study is to identify the maternal outcomes after PPH. The highlighted outcome is the anesthetic management including rate of blood transfusion and incidence of patient experiencing massive blood transfusion. The secondary purposes of this study are amount of blood loss, causes of PPH and other outcomes that related to PPH such as the rate of hysterectomy and postoperative outcome eg. congestive heart failure, acute kidney injury and TRALI etc. Additionally, incidence of PPH will be studied. Data collection will be made to identify the cause of PPH, anesthetic techniques that may related to the amount of hemorrhage, medical treatment for PPH and neonatal outcomes. We also aim to obtain the rate of ICU admission and revealed the factors involving the ICU admission in PPH patients underwent cesarean delivery.
This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of placebo versus chlorpheniramine for the prevention of allergic transfusion reactions.
ABO-incompatible red blood cell transfusions still represent an important hazard in transfusion medicine. Therefore, some countries have introduced a systematic bedside ABO agglutination test checking that the right blood is given to the right patient. However, this strategy is entirely manual, requires an extremely time-consuming learning program and relies on a subjective interpretation of agglutination on ABO test cards (for example Biorad, Diagast). The ULB spinoff Antigon developed a prototype device on the basis of a technology developed in the Translational research laboratory of CHU-Brugmann, ULB. This device is specifically dedicated to perform a "near patient" control of the blood group of the patient and of the blood bag just before transfusion, and to control that the right blood bag is given to the right patient by cross-checking their identifications. The principle of the assay relies on an agglutination and filtration in a disk including anti A,B and D antibodies. The goal of this study is to validate the analytical performances of this device (phase A) and to validate the clinical performances of this device (phase B).
Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is a serious inherited blood disorder affecting red blood cells. When oxygen levels drop the red cells become abnormally shaped and unable to move through the blood vessels easily. Blood and oxygen do not reach body organs, resulting in episodes of severe pain and other complications. Pregnant women with SCD have an increased risk of both sickle and pregnancy complications, including raised blood pressure. Their babies may grow more slowly in the womb, are more likely to be born early and need special care, and have a higher risk of dying. The only treatments currently available for women with SCD are Hydroxycarbamide (which cannot be used during pregnancy) and blood transfusion. Currently, blood transfusion is only used during pregnancy to treat emergency complications. It has been suggested that giving blood transfusions throughout pregnancy could improve outcomes for both mother and babies. In Serial Prophylactic Exchange Blood Transfusion (SPEBT), sickle blood is mechanically removed and simultaneously replaced with donor red cells. A trial is needed to assess SPEBT given every 6-10 weeks, starting before 18 weeks of pregnancy, compared to standard care. This trial will evaluate outcomes for women (e.g. hospital admission, frequency of crisis) and their infants (e.g. early delivery, birthweight). However, the feasibility of such a study needs to be assessed before embarking on a large multicentre trial. This study is therefore a feasibility study in which we will randomly allocate participants to have either SPEBT or standard care. The study will be carried out in multiple maternity units in England and last two years. The willingness of eligible women to join the study will be assessed, along with how many participants remain part of the study until the end and if participants find the intervention acceptable.
