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.

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.

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.

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.

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)

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 ...
