Active clinical trials for "Postoperative Hemorrhage"

This study has been designed to evaluate how effective the Bizact tonsillectomy device is in reducing operating time and complications that occur after surgery. This device operates in a different way than the standard device that is used for most tonsillectomies. In 2019, a study was conducted in 186 children and adults using this device in tonsillectomies. Results showed lower blood loss and shortened time in surgery. However, the rate for bleeding as a complication after surgery was the same as other procedures that are used in tonsillectomy

To compare shorttime (6 months) results of two competitive suture materials with regard to time demanded to perform the concerned surgical step and secondary to study anastomotic site safety and complications like leakage and hemorrhage as well as development of anastomotic strictures. Evaluation of cost-effectiveness.

Autologous blood transfused at the end of cardiopulmonary bypass will reduce total blood loss 24 hours after surgery and improve mitochondrial oxygen delivery measured by plasma succinate levels. The study design is a prospective randomized interventional trial of transfusion of fresh autologous whole blood versus standard of care expectant management of bleeding during elective cardiac surgery.

investigator will see the efficacy of tranexamic acid in limb salvage surgery patients which will prevent blood loss and help in conservation of blood products.

Cesarean delivery (CD) is the most common major surgical procedure undergone by women around the world. Over the past two decades, there has been a witnessed increase in rates of caesarean deliveries, which continues to rise, achieving 30% in resource-rich countries and exceeding 60% in resource-limited countries. According to a Lancet report 2014, Egypt is one of the countries with the highest rates of caesarean delivery, in which the rate had reached 55.5%. The rate is almost double to three times the ideal rate of 10%-15%

This study will be a prospective randomized study to evaluate the effect of tranexamic acid (TXA) use on intraoperative and postoperative outcomes among patients undergoing rhinoplasty by two Facial Plastic surgeons at Vanderbilt. Outcomes will include intra- and post-operative bleeding and postoperative bruising and swelling.

The aim is to conduct a double-dummy multi-centre randomized controlled clinical trial of application of topical dose of tranexamic acid (TxA) versus the usual intravenous TxA in patients undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery.

Cesarean delivery has become the most common surgical procedure in the US. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been shown to improve the quality of post-cesarean analgesia and markedly reduce opioid consumption. The effect of NSAIDs on healthy volunteers results in inhibition of platelet aggregation and prolonged bleeding time. However, in the obstetric population, the presence and degree of platelet inhibition after NSAID exposure is less clear. The investigators plan to use Platelet Aggregometry and Thromboelastography (TEG) to evaluate the effect of ketorolac on platelets.

Prospective, multi-center, double-blind, randomized pivotal trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the DrugSorb-ATR system for intraoperative removal of ticagrelor in patients undergoing urgent cardiothoracic (CT) surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

This is a prospective clinical study designed to assess blood loss in intracapsular and extracapsular hip fractures undergoing operative fixation at a Level II trauma center. It is well established in the orthopedic literature that tranexamic acid (TXA) decreases blood loss and need for postoperative blood transfusion in hip fracture patients as well as total joint arthroplasty patients. A typical dosing pattern, and the dosing pattern employed at our institution, is 1 gram IV infused prior to incision followed by 1 gram IV infused at the time of wound closure.
