  1. 1. Bleeding in abdominal aortic aneurysm repair

    Author : Carl Montán; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : bleeding;

    Abstract : Background and aims: Massive bleeding in open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair is associated with worse outcome. However, few studies have investigated specific problems related to perioperative bleeding and blood transfusion in elective or emergent AAA repair with open (OR) or endovascular (EVAR) aneurysm repair.

  2. 2. Clinical Aspects of Bleeding and Transfusion in Cardiac Surgery

    Author : Lisa Ternström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cardiac surgery; bleeding; fibrinogen; blood transfusion; transfusion guidelines; adherence;

    Abstract : Abstract Excessive bleeding after cardiac surgery is a serious complication that is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The bleeding is multifactorial and influenced by both surgical factors and impaired haemostasis. READ MORE

  3. 3. Acute coronary syndrome : bleeding, platelets and gender

    Author : Anna Holm; Eva Swahn; Joakim Alfredsson; Sofia Sederholm Lawesson; Christina Christersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : BACKGROUNDBleeding complications increase mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Potential gender difference in bleeding regarding prevalence, location, severity and prognostic impact is still controversial and not well investigated. In regard to this aspect the relevance of triple antithrombotic therapy (TAT) is questioned. READ MORE

  4. 4. The use of fibrinogen in cardiac surgery patients-clinical and experimental studies

    Author : Katarina Waldén; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; fibrinogen; cardiac surgery; bleeding; transfusion; thromboembolism; tranexamic acid;

    Abstract : BACKGROUND Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass impairs hemostasis due to hemodilution and consumption of platelets and coagulation factors, such as fibrinogen. The aim of this thesis was to study the role of fibrinogen in bleeding complications in cardiac surgery patients. READ MORE

  5. 5. Technical Aspects of Laparoscopic Liver Resection. An Experimental Study

    Author : Kristinn Eiriksson; Dag Arvidsson; Sten Rubertsson; Bjørn Edwin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Gas embolism; laparoscopy; liver resection; pneumoperitoneum; carbon dioxide; argon; bleeding; stapling device;

    Abstract : Various techniques are used to transect the liver. With increase in laparoscopic liver resections (LLR), it is of even more interest to develop surgical techniques to minimize bleeding and the risk for gas embolism during transection. Instrument like argon enhanced coagulator provides good hemostasis but increases the danger of gas embolism. READ MORE
