Bone Wax Is Effective in Reducing Blood Loss After Total Knee Arthroplasty.

The Journal of arthroplasty
BACKGROUND: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is associated with major blood loss and blood transfusion is often required. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of bone wax in reducing blood loss and transfusion rates after TKA.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of the effect of prophylactic tranexamic acid treatment in major benign uterine surgery.

International journal of gynaecology and obstetrics: the official organ of the International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics
BACKGROUND: The value of tranexamic acid (TA) treatment as bleeding prophylaxis in major uterine surgery is unclear.

Erythropoiesis-stimulating Agents and Anemia in Patients with Non-dialytic Chronic Kidney Disease.

Journal of Korean medical science
Anemia is common in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD). Though erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) have been strongly endorsed in guidelines, it is of particular financial interest. Recently, the reimbursement of ESAs in non-dia...

The relationship of blood transfusion with peri-operative and long-term outcomes after major hepatectomy for metastatic colorectal cancer: a multi-institutional study of 456 patients.

HPB : the official journal of the International Hepato Pancreato Biliary Association
BACKGROUND: Data on prognostic implications of peri-operative blood transfusion around resection of colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) are conflicting. This retrospective study assesses the association of transfusion with complications and dis...

Beating Heart Minimally Invasive Mitral Valve Surgery in Patients With Patent Coronary Bypass Grafts.

The Canadian journal of cardiology
BACKGROUND: Redo mitral valve surgery in patients with patent coronary bypass grafts carries a risk of graft injury and postoperative bleeding. We compare early results of reoperative minimally invasive on-pump beating heart mitral valve surgery (OPB...

Impact of robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy on the management of general anesthesia: efficacy of blood withdrawal during a steep Trendelenburg position.

Journal of anesthesia
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) is being increasingly used. However, a steep Trendelenburg position and pneumoperitoneum during RALP has an impact on the respiratory, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular systems. To preve...

Spotlights on novel strategic innovations on the artificial intelligence and deep learning driven quality control focuses in transfusion medicine, to optimize blood component safety and efficacy and minimize the potential pitfalls.

Transfusion and apheresis science : official journal of the World Apheresis Association : official journal of the European Society for Haemapheresis
Artificial intelligence (AI) combined with human intelligent, and machine learning (ML) are transforming quality control (QC) in transfusion medicine, enhancing efficiency, accuracy, and transfusion clinical safety. Traditional QC methods require ext...

A Federated Learning Model for the Prediction of Blood Transfusion in Intensive Care Units.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Accurate prediction of blood transfusion requirements is crucial for patient outcomes and resource management in clinical settings. We developed a machine learning model using XGBoost to predict the need for a blood transfusion 2 hours in advance bas...
