Inhibition of Alveolar Osteitis in Mandibular Tooth Extraction Sites Using Platelet-Rich Plasma
This paper is a retrospective review of the benefits of PRP in AO prevention. PRP was obtained from patients for use in the postremoval alveolar sockets of mandibular molar extraction sites.
Intraoperative Assessment and Quantification of Coronary Artery Graft Patency Performed on or off Cardiopulmonary Bypass
The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare on-pump and off-pump intraoperative coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) flow parameters.
Differential Expression in Markers for Thrombin, Platelet Activation, and Inflammation in Cell Saver Versus Systemic Blood in Patients Undergoing On-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery
Elimination of cardiotomy suction increases reliance on cell-saver blood-conservation techniques.

Autotransfusion Management During and After Cardiopulmonary Bypass Alters Fibrin Degradation and Transfusion Requirements
This study was designed to explore the influence of autotransfusion management on intravascular fibrin degradation and postoperative transfusions
Kaolin-Based Activated Coagulation Time Measured by Sonoclot in Patients Undergoing Cardiopulmonary Bypass
The aim of this study was to compare SkACT with an established kaolin-based ACT from Hemochron (HkACT) and anti-Xa activity in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

Heparin Monitoring During Cardiopulmonary Bypass Surgery Using the One-Step Point-of-Care Whole Blood Anti-Factor-Xa Clotting Assay Heptest-POC-Hi
The activated clotting time (ACT) generally used for monitoring heparinization during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery does not specifically measure heparin anticoagulant activities. This may result in heparin over- or under-dose and subsequent severe adverse events.
Improved Coagulation and Blood Conservation in the Golden Hours After Cardiopulmonary Bypass
The Hemobag (HB) technique allows the open-heart team to safely concentrate the residual cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuit contents and return a high volume of concentrated clotting factors and blood cells back to the patient as autotransfusion.
Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in Severe Acute Respiratory Failure in Postpartum Woman With Rheumatic Mitral Valve Disease: Benefit, Factors Furthering the Success of this Procedure, and Review of the Literature
Use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) early in the event of cardiorespiratory failure after cardiac surgery may be of benefit.
