An Aptamer‐Based EXACT Anticoagulant as a Sustainable, Animal‐Free Alternative to Unfractionated Heparin

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By simply conjugating thrombin's active‐site inhibitor, dabigatran, with an exosite inhibitor, aptamer HD1, the resulting EXosite‐ACTive site (EXACT) inhibitors show two orders of magnitude higher potency and selectivity via synergistic binding, while maintaining the aptamer's antidote‐reversible trait, yielding a potential substitute for the animal ...

Current Nationwide Landscape of Cardiac Surgery for Children With Trisomy 18 in Japan

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the increasing number of retrospective cohorts describing successful cardiac surgery for children with trisomy 18, no consensus has been reached among healthcare providers regarding cardiac surgery in Japan. This study provided a benchmark to facilitate consensus building by assessing a nationwide surgical database in Japan. A total of

Use of rapid-deployment extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for the resuscitation of pediatric patients with heart disease after cardiac arrest [PDF]

, 1998
Introduction: We have recently used extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as a means of rapidly resuscitating pediatric patients with heart disease after cardiopulmonary arrest, in whom conventional resuscitation measures have failed. Methods: We developed

Dose individualisation of antibiotics in critically ill patients with inflammation: A narrative review

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Due to extensive pathophysiological changes in critically ill patients, standard dosing of antibiotics may lead to inadequate drug exposure. This is concerning, as insufficient plasma drug concentrations may lead to treatment failure, whereas excessive drug exposure may increase the risk of toxic adverse events.

Severe hypoxemia during veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: exploring the limits of extracorporeal respiratory support

Clinics, 2014
OBJECTIVE: Veno-venous extracorporeal oxygenation for respiratory support has emerged as a rescue alternative for patients with hypoxemia. However, in some patients with more severe lung injury, extracorporeal support fails to restore arterial ...

Management considerations of massive hemoptysis while on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO) is a life-saving procedure in patients with both respiratory and cardiac failure. Bleeding complications are common since patients must be maintained on anticoagulation.
