Surgical Blood Loss in Abdominal Hysterectomy

Gynecologic Oncology, 2001
The aim of this study was to evaluate additional error in estimating red cell loss during abdominal hysterectomy.Eighty patients admitted consecutively for abdominal hysterectomy were recruited. The surgeries were done after heparinizing the suction tubing system to prevent clotting and reducing the vacuum pressure to reduce red cell lysis.

Local Tranexamic Acid Reduces Surgical Blood Loss

Wounds : a compendium of clinical research and practice, 2022
Tranexamic acid (TXA) is a synthetic lysine analog that reduces perioperative blood loss by blocking lysine-binding sites on plasminogen molecules. It has been reported to be effective in limiting blood loss and transfusion needs in various orthopedic surgeries and for pediatric patients at high risk of blood loss.1,2 Randomized controlled trials (RCTs)

Measurement of blood loss during surgical operations

The American Journal of Surgery, 1951
T HE maintenance of the fluid balance of surgica1 patients is one of the most important responsibilities of the modern surgica1 team, and the proper repIacement of bIood is perhaps one of the most important phases of this maintenance. This is true not only because it is an excellent prophyIactic measure against shock but also because it aids in ...

Agreement of surgical blood loss estimation methods

Transfusion, 2018
BACKGROUND Surgical blood loss is usually estimated by different formulae in studies of strategies aimed at reducing perioperative bleeding. This study assessed and compared the agreement of the main blood loss estimation formulae using a direct measurement of blood loss as the reference method.

BLOOD DETERMINATION AND ESTIMATION OF BLOOD LOSS DURING SURGICAL OPERATIONS

Archives of Surgery, 1948
THE CONDITION of the surgical patient postoperatively depends on several factors, among which are surgical trauma, length of operation, type of anesthesia and loss of blood. The more closely each of these factors can be maintained to normal, the more rapid will be the patient's recovery.

Blood loss in surgical oncology: Neglected quality indicator?

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2009
AbstractQuality indicators can be defined as “specific and measurable elements of practice that can be used to assess the quality of care”. Surgical blood loss is one of the most significant perioperative predictors of patient outcome. Blood loss is a modifiable quality indicator for oncologic cancer surgery.

BLOOD LOSS IN SURGICAL OPERATIONS

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1944
The amount of blood lost during surgical operations of various types has been measured and reported by a number of observers. The facts disclosed by these observations have not been generally recognized, nor has their practical importance been sufficiently emphasized.
