Blood Loss, Surgical
Abstract
The results show that the Trendelenburg position is vastly superior to the Valsalva manoeuvre in identifying bleeding vessels at haemostasis. It has become our practice to put patients in Trendelenburg tilt routinely (we have discontinued the Valsalva manoeuvre), to check its adequacy before closing...

Obesity, epidural analgesia, and subcostal incision are risk factors for postoperative desaturation.
Abstract
Of the 206 patients enrolled, 171 were retained for analysis. Desaturation occurred in 65 patients (38%). Forty-eight of these had constant hypoxemia with nadir oxygen saturation values ranging from 71-89%. The remaining 17 patients experienced nocturnal episodic hypoxemia. After multivariate analys...

Abstract
Survival to 120 min among treatment groups was 100% (WS), 83% (CX), 67% (HC), and 50% (ACS+). No control animals survived. Postinjury blood loss (mL/kg) was 4.6 (WS), 12.9 (CX), 10.0 (HC), and 15.8 (ACS+) compared to 27.0 for controls. CONCLUSION: All hemostatic dressings result in significantly les...

Abstract
A retrospective study was conducted at a Nigerian tertiary hospital to assess the quality of emergency care provided to women managed for a ruptured uterus over an 11-year period. There were 76 cases of ruptured uterus and 4,770 deliveries (1.6%) during the period. Ten women died from a ruptured ute...

Abstract
We wanted to determine botanical and vitamin use in surgical gynaecology patients at UHWI and their effects on blood pressure and blood loss. The study was prospective and observational. Before elective surgery, we evaluated 133 patients on the use of botanicals and vitamins. We measured pre- and in...

Abstract
Group 2 patients were slightly older, presented less frequently with unstable angina and had chronic renal failure more frequently. They were more than twice as frequently on rescue PCI, being more than three-fold less frequently on primary PCI (all: 0.01>P < 0.001). Overall, there were 87 in-hospit...

Abstract
Gynecologic surgery often entails meticulous dissection in areas close to the bladder, rectum, ureters and major vessels of the pelvis. The close anatomical relationship between these bodies that frequently makes are affected during pelvic surgery. When a complication occurs, it is vital to recogniz...

Journal of Neurosurgery (112)4 2010
Abstract
The authors demonstrated that the irrigation fluid used in neurosurgery affects bleeding at the surgical site. To avoid surgical site bleeding, ACF-95 and LR solution should be used as irrigation fluids instead of normal saline. The calcium and potassium content of irrigation solutions seems to be i...

Abstract
Preoperative embolization of primary and metastatic spinal tumors is often performed to decrease intraoperative blood loss and facilitate surgical resection. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety of spinal tumor embolization and the variables that may influence intraop...

Abstract
We review our experience with endoscopic extraperitoneal radical prostatectomy, and we propose methods to prevent and manage intraoperative bleeding complications. In addition, special technical considerations regarding the nerve-sparing procedures are presented....

Abstract
Radical surgery for cervical cancer can be accomplished using the da Vinci surgical system (Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, Calif) with acceptable blood loss, operating time, parametrial margins, and nodal yield. Future studies need to address long-term outcomes....

Abstract
We present the case of a child with significant spontaneous gingival bleeding, radiographic evidence of a space-occupying lesion of the mandible, and delayed diagnosis and treatment because of parental reluctance to accept invasive treatment. Imaging studies and intravascular embolization with coils...

Abstract
There was a notable shift toward the management of benign ovarian disease in using MIS techniques over the course of three different 5-year intervals. This approach was also associated with shorter hospital stay, less operative blood loss, and shorter operative times, when compared to an open approa...

Abstract
We evaluated the short-term outcomes of 40 patients undergoing surgery for Masaoka stage I and II thymomas without myasthenia gravis between July 2000 and July 2008. Of these, 22 patients underwent complete thymoma resection using unilateral thoracoscopic subtotal thymectomy (UTST group), and 18 pat...

Abstract
Laparoscopic myomectomy is a safe procedure in the hands of an experienced advanced laparoscopic surgeon. Blood loss is dependent on the myoma size and bleeding is the most serious intraoperative complication which may require performing a staged laparoscopic myomectomy, conversion to open myomectom...

Abstract
Four RCTs (1120 patients) and 4 non-randomized studies (901 patients) were identified. Meta-analysis showed that there was no significant difference between these two groups in 5-year overall survival rate [risk ratio (RR) 1.04 (95% CI: 0.93-1.16) for RCTs and 0.96 (95% CI: 0.83-1.10) for non-random...

Abstract
The mean age was 115 months (range, 7 months to 17.6 years) in the WO group and 43.3 months (range, 5 months to 16.25 years) in the TLG group (P = .0003). Mean weight was 19.8 kg (range, 5.8-67) and 9.7 Kg (range, 5.2-57) in the WO and TLG groups, respectively (P = .0079). Red blood cell transfusion...

Abstract
Abstract
Single-incision laparoscopic surgery can be applied to colectomy safely. Oncologic resection similar to conventional laparoscopy can be performed with this technique. Further studies are needed to evaluate the outcomes against those of conventional laparoscopic resection....

Abstract
An interventional radiologist was called for and he was able to angiographically locate the source of bleeding and stem its source using coil embolization of the lumbar artery. CONCLUSION: Whenever there is bleeding from an inaccessible site, consultation with an interventional radiologist to perfor...

We performed a prospective randomized study to determine the influence of tourniquet use and the timing of its release on amount of bleeding. Eighty four patients (96 knees) were scheduled for total knee arthroplasty and randomly divided into three groups. Posterior cruciate retaining bicompartmenta...
