The Effect of Tranexamic Acid in Total Blood Loss During Proximal Femoral Nailing
Hip FracturesIntertrochanteric Fractures1 moreBlood loss is an important issue following intertrochanteric femoral fracture and may lead to requiring blood transfusions and transfusion complications. Tranexamic acid is a commonly used drug to decrease blood loss and the number of transfusions. The aim of our study is to determine the effectiveness of tranexamic acid use to reduce total blood loss during proximal femoral nailing for the intertrochanteric femoral fracture in the elderly. Patients aged >65 years and diagnosed with intertrochanteric fracture will be included in the study. The patients will be numbered according to the admission to the hospital and randomly divided into two groups. First group will receive tranexamic acid infusion and second group will not receive tranexamic acid infusion. Total blood loss will be calculated using Nadler formula. The primary outcome of the study is total blood loss. The secondary outcomes are a number of transfusions, and surgical blood loss during the operative procedure.
Effectiveness of Teaching Program for the Management of Upper GI Bleeding
NurseA study to assess the effectiveness of teaching program for the management of upper GI bleeding in terms of gain in nurses' practice and knowledge related to management of upper GI bleeding among chronic liver disease patients visiting Emergency Room at ILBS, New Delhi. The study assumes that- The nurses are practising as per their usual nursing practices while managing the patients with upper GI bleeding. Nursing Personnel have some knowledge in the practice related to management of upper GI bleeding among CLD patients. The nurses are documenting their nursing intervention correctly. The patient is managed by the nurses through a nursing team approach. (Any nursing professional from the nursing team can attend to the patient in the emergency room.) Structured teaching program will enhance the patient care related to the management of upper GI bleeding among chronic liver disease patients visiting Emergency Room. The study hypothesis is tested at 0.05 level of significance: - H1 - There is a significant difference between mean knowledge score of nurses' before and after administration of Structured teaching Program as measured by Structured Questionnaire H2 - There is a significant difference between mean practice score of nurses' before and after administration of Structured teaching Program as measured by observation checklist H3 - There is a significant difference between mean practice response time score of nurses' before and after administration of Structured teaching Program as measured by observation checklist H4 - There is a significant association between nurses' knowledge and selected demographic and clinical variables of the patients visiting Emergency Room.
Venous Thromboembolism and Bleeding in Hospitalized Medical Patients With Cancer
HemorrhageVein ThrombosisPatients with cancer hospitalized for an acute medical illness have an increased risk of venous thromboembolic events. Although international guidelines suggest the use of thromboprophylaxis in these patients, the recommendations are based on studies which included a percentage of patients with cancer without primarily focusing on this high risk group. Since patients with cancer present an increased risk of bleeding complications it is critical to evaluate the safety of thromboprophylaxis in the cancer group. Recent studies suggest a limited use of thromboprophylaxis in these patients. The aim of this study is to evaluate the use, efficacy and safety of thromboprophylaxis in medical cancer patients hospitalized for an acute medical disease. Design: observational, prospective study Primary end-point: incidence of major and clinically relevant non major bleeding during hospitalization Secondary endpoints: frequency of use, doses and contraindications for pharmacological thromboprophylaxis; venous thromboembolic events up to three months after discharge

Admission HbA1C in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
HyperglycemiaAneurysmal Subarachnoid HemorrhageIn patients suffering from aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), hyperglycemia is considered an adverse prognostic factor. Glycated hemoglobin (or HbA1c) can be measured to estimate the average plasma glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time, thus determination of glycated hemoglobin at admission after aSAH serves as an approximation of blood glucose levels in the weeks preceding aneurysm rupture. In this patient registry admission HbA1c, clinical course and neurological outcome after 6 month are recorded, to determine whether elevated blood glucose levels prior to aneurysm rupture influence the clinical course and patient outcome after aSAH.
