Platelet Biochemistry and Morphology after Cryopreservation [PDF]
Platelet cryopreservation has been investigated for several decades as an alternative to room temperature storage of platelet concentrates. The use of dimethylsulfoxide as a cryoprotectant has improved platelet storage and cryopreserved concentrates can ...

Autologous chemotaxis at high cell density [PDF]
Autologous chemotaxis, in which cells secrete and detect molecules to determine the direction of fluid flow, is thwarted at high cell density because molecules from other cells interfere with a given cell's signal. Using a minimal model of autologous chemotaxis, we determine the cell density at which sensing fails and find that it agrees with ...

ObjectiveTo determine whether intraoperative transfusion of allogeneic or autologous blood is associated with an increased incidence of postoperative delirium (POD) after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and total hip arthroplasty (THA).MethodsThe medical ...

Autologous blood transfusion is an endorsed blood conservation strategy that has become widely practiced in elective surgical procedures. We review ten years' experience in this arena, along with emerging strategies designed to continue to minimize allogeneic blood exposure but reduce the costs associated with autologous blood procurement.

Predicting the Need for Blood Transfusion in Intensive Care Units with Reinforcement Learning [PDF]
As critically ill patients frequently develop anemia or coagulopathy, transfusion of blood products is a frequent intervention in the Intensive Care Units (ICU). However, inappropriate transfusion decisions made by physicians are often associated with increased risk of complications and higher hospital costs.

Limit allogeneic blood use with routine re-use of patient's own blood: a prospective, randomized, controlled trial in total hip surgery. [PDF]
There are risks related to blood incompatibility and blood-borne diseases when using allogeneic blood transfusion. Several alternatives exist today, one of which, used for autologous blood salvage perioperatively, is the Sangvia Blood Management System ...

Intra-operative blood salvage in total hip and knee arthroplasty [PDF]
Purpose To review records of 371 patients who underwent total hip or knee arthroplasty (THA or TKA) with intra-operative blood salvage to determine the allogeneic blood transfusion rate and the predictors for allogeneic blood transfusion. Methods Records

Intraoperative Autologous Transfusion [PDF]
Intraoperative autologous transfusion is a technique that was first used almost 2 centuries ago but that has realized its potential only in the past 5 years. A growing national awareness of transfusion-related morbidity, of the need for alternative blood sources, and of improved methods for red blood cell recovery has led to an increased frequency of ...
