Is postoperative blood loss, loss of blood? A pilot study in cardiac surgical patients

Perfusion, 2001
The effect of estimating the blood balance using changes in erythrocyte volumes (EVs) instead of the routinely used changes in haematocrit values was studied in 20 patients scheduled for cardiac surgery. We determined the mean haematocrit of the effluent from the postoperative thoracic drainage system at various time intervals. These data were used to

EFFECT OF ADRENOXYL ON BLOOD LOSS FROM SURGICAL WOUNDS

Archives of Surgery, 1949
IT WAS demonstrated by W. B. Cannon1in 1914 that intravenous or subcutaneous injection of small amounts of epinephrine would shorten the coagulation time of blood by one half to two thirds. He also observed that after large doses of epinephrine there was first a lengthening and later a shortening of coagulation time.

Association Between Hospital Intraoperative Blood Transfusion Practices for Surgical Blood Loss and Hospital Surgical Mortality Rates

Annals of Surgery, 2012
Blood loss during surgery is an important operative complication in patients undergoing major noncardiac surgery and may increase postoperative morbidity and mortality. Variations in the delivery of operative blood transfusions to treat blood loss depend not only on the patient and surgery characteristics but also on the hospital transfusion practices,

Systemic Hemostatic Medications for Reducing Surgical Blood Loss

The Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 2001
OBJECTIVE: To review randomized trials involving the use of systemic hemostatic medications for reducing surgical blood loss. DATA SOURCES: Articles were obtained through searches of MEDLINE (1966–September 2000). The bibliographies of retrieved publications were reviewed for additional references.

Bleeding Time and Surgical Blood Losses in Nonhemorrhagic People

Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 1969
Summary1. Discussion of various clinical trials upon the hemostatic properties of adrenochrome derivatives suggest a possible correlation between bleeding time and hemostatic plug resistance.2. It is hoped that this hypothesis will result in new experiments in man and in laboratory animal which might improve general non-specific hemostatic therapy ...

Management of Major Surgical Blood Loss Without Transfusion

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1966
Six patients of the Jehovah's Witness faith underwent open-heart surgery without receiving blood at any time. Marked acute decreases in red blood cell mass and low absolute levels of hematocrit followed exclusive use of crystalloid solutions for priming the extracorporeal apparatus and to replace blood loss postoperatively. Sequential studies of renal,
