Surgical hemostasis

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1979
✓ Every surgical procedure taxes the hemostatic defenses of the patient. If his hemostatic mechanism is sound, he is unlikely to have a bleeding problem during or after an operation, unless, of course, a suture or clip slips off. Two classes of patients do present bleeding problems to the surgeon.

Achieving Hemostasis in the Surgical Field

Pharmacotherapy: The Journal of Human Pharmacology and Drug Therapy, 2009
Hemostatic mechanisms are an integral part of the human physiology. Traditionally divided into intrinsic and extrinsic arms, the coagulation cascade converges, through the interactions of many different factors, at a common element—thrombin. As a consequence, a number of different agents have been developed to supplement this common, critical step to ...

Anticoagulation and Hemostasis in Cardiac Surgical Patients

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 1994
Optimizing anticoagulation and hemostasis during cardiopulmonary bypass and perioperatively helps to ensure the best possible clinical outcome. This article reviews the pharmacology of unfractionated and low-molecular weight heparin, aprotinin, desmopressin, dextran, antiplatelet agents, warfarin, and direct thrombin inhibitors.

Miniclips and microclips for surgical hemostasis

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1986
✓ The authors have designed a miniclip and a microclip for occlusion of small perforating vessels deep in the operative wound. These clips are intended for permanent occlusion but may be used for temporary hemostasis.

Surgical Bleeding and Hemostasis

2006
An understanding of the processes of hemostasis and thrombosis is necessary for every surgical procedure. There are a large number of biochemical events that occur in response to endothelial injury that result in the formation of a fibrin clot. Clinical bleeding may result from a defect or deficiency in any of these events or from technical error.

Efficacy of hemostatic agents in improving surgical hemostasis

Transfusion Medicine Reviews, 1996
C URTAILING operative bleeding has always been a surgical priority. Perioperative hemorrhage, and the need for blood product transfusions, increases morbidity, mortality, and cost. The driest fields are usually attributed to the most skillful surgeons.

Hemostasis in the surgical patient.

The Journal of the Louisiana State Medical Society : official organ of the Louisiana State Medical Society, 1991
Hemostatic disorders present a challenging problem to the surgeon and patient alike. Many of these disorders are first discovered at the time of planned or emergent surgical procedures. This manuscript will review the normal hemostatic mechanisms and the more common congenital and acquired coagulopathies.

Topical Recombinant Human Thrombin in Surgical Hemostasis

Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2010
The achievement of hemostasis is paramount, and good operative practice is crucial to all surgical procedures. Intraoperative hemostasis is usually achieved through suture ligation for larger vessels and electrocautery of smaller vessels; certain cases, however, are not amenable to these techniques, especially when there is diffuse raw surface bleeding.

Preventive Hemostasis for Hemodialysis Vascular Access Surgical Reinterventions

The Journal of Vascular Access, 2012
Surgical reinterventions for treatment of complications or ligation of haemodialysis vascular access (VA), when performed in or below the mid/lower part of the upper arm, could benefit from the use of preventive haemostasis with an inflatable tourniquet.
