The Effect of Aprotinin on Thrombelastography in Vitro [PDF]
The effect of low dose (50 KIU/ml) and high dose (200 KIU/ml) aprotinin on standard thrombelastographic variables (r, K, α, MA) was examined in vitro using blood from forty ASA Class I patients. Both concentrations of aprotinin resulted in minor increases in r time above the normal range (P<0.05).

Monitoring activated clotting time for combined heparin and aprotinin application: in vivo evaluation of a new aprotinin-insensitive test using Sonoclot [PDF]
Objective: Kaolin-based activated clotting time assessed by HEMOCHRON (HkACT) is a clinical standard for heparin monitoring alone and combined with aprotinin during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

Aprotinin reduces blood loss in off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) surgery [PDF]
Objective: Effects of aprotinin in off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) surgery have not yet been described. This study analyses hemostasiologic changes and potential benefit in OPCAB patients treated with aprotinin.

Mediators of leukocyte yctivation play a role in disseminated intravascular coagulation during orthotopic liver transplantation [PDF]
Leukocytes play an important role in the development of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). In the reperfusion phase of OLT a DIC-like situation has been described and has been held responsible for the high blood loss during this phase.

Enhanced Antifibrinolytic Efficacy of a Plasmin-Specific Kunitz-Inhibitor (60-Residue Y11T/L17R with C-Terminal IEK) of Human Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor Type-2 Domain1 [PDF]
Current antifibrinolytic agents reduce blood loss by inhibiting plasmin active sites (e.g., aprotinin) or by preventing plasminogen/tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) binding to fibrin clots (e.g., ε-aminocaproic acid and tranexamic acid); however, they ...

Impact of aprotinin and renal function on mortality: a retrospective single center analysis [PDF]
Background An estimated up to 7% of high-risk cardiac surgery patients return to the operating room for bleeding. Aprotinin was used extensively as an antifibrinolytic agent in cardiac surgery patients for over 15 years and it showed efficacy in reducing
