Surgical Pearl: Hemostasis assisted with two skin hooks [PDF]

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 2002
H emostasis is an essential but sometimes tedious and time-consuming aspect of cutaneous surgery. The importance of achieving hemostasis is stressed in numerous textbooks on cutaneous surgery, but details on efficient attainment of that goal are not.1-5 We describe an efficient technique that requires minimal investment in instrumentation and provides ...

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.

Management of surgical hemostasis: topical agents.

Vascular, 2008
Intraoperative control of bleeding during any surgical procedure is vital for achieving a positive patient outcome. Hemostasis can be achieved through practical and effective systemic or topical approaches. A variety of hemostatic methods can be employed, ranging from simple manual pressure application with one finger to electrical tissue cauterization,

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.

Surgical Hemostasis With a Factor XI-Containing Concentrate

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1974
In factor XI deficiency, plasma infusions remain the primary source of replacement but often prove inadequate in a hemorrhagic crisis. A large amount of factor XI was found to be present in a prothrombin-containing concentrate. This was used when a severely factor XI-deficient patient required extensive hip surgery, during which excellent surgical ...

Recombinant Human Thrombin

BioDrugs, 2009
Recombinant human thrombin (rhThrombin) is a serine protease coagulant, manufactured in vitro using recombinant DNA technology, which shares an identical amino acid sequence and similar structure with the native human protein. It is indicated for topical use as an aid to hemostasis in patients undergoing surgery.

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.

Evaluation of a Hemostasis Model for Teaching Basic Surgical Skills

Veterinary Surgery, 1996
The need for alternative methods of teaching veterinary medicine and surgery has increased in recent years because of increasing costs and changing public opinion. For these reasons a hemostasis model was developed that mimics the arteries and veins of the peripheral vascular system, and can be used to teach the basic skills involved in blood vessel ...

A Biodegradable Hemostatic Gelatin/Polycaprolactone Composite for Surgical Hemostasis

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2017
Massive bleeding is the leading cause of battlefield-related deaths and the second leading cause of deaths in civilian trauma centers. One of the challenges of managing severe wounds is the need to promote hemostasis as quickly as possible, which can be achieved by using hemostatic dressings.
