Platelet-Pich Plasma Treatment and Hemostasis in Patients With Hemorrhagic Risk
Our research aimed to evaluate the risk of haemorrhage following oral surgical operations, in patients who were undergoing an anticoagulant therapy, and to test the usefulness of the autologous platelet gel in order to control haemostasis.
2006 Perfusion Medication Administration Survey Results
The purpose of this informal and non-scientific medication survey was to ascertain which medications are administered by perfusionists into the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit, so a standard of practice can eventually be defined on this subject.
Effects of Centrifugal and Roller Pumps on Survival of autologous Red Cells in Cardiopulmonary Bypass Surgery
In this study, we assessed the effect of these two pumps on the 24-h post-transfusion survival values of autologous red blood cells (RBC).
Platelet-Rich Plasma Inhibits Demineralized Bone Matrix-Induced Bone Formation in Nude Mice
This study tested the hypothesis that platelet-rich plasma reduces demineralized bone matrix-induced bone formation and that this effect varies with donor-dependent differences in platelet-rich plasma and demineralized bone matrix.
Surgical Treatment of Infrabony Defects With Autologous Platelet Concentrate or Bioabsorbable Barrier Membrane: A Prospective Case Series
The purpose of this prospective case series was to compare the treatment effects of an intralesional graft of APC to guided periodontal regeneration (GPR) using a bioabsorbable barrier membrane (MEM) over a 52-week period.
Effect of Platelet Rich Plasma and Fibrin Sealant on Facial Nerve Regeneration in a Rat Model
To investigate the effects of platelet rich plasma (PRP) and fibrin sealant (FS) on facial nerve regeneration.
Leukocyte Effects of C5a-Receptor Blockade During Simulated Extracorporeal Circulation
We hypothesized that a human C5a receptor antagonist would specifically inhibit the inflammatory response of neutrophils to simulated extracorporeal circulation, while preserving the C5b-9 pathway for innate immunity.
Replacing Cardiopulmonary Bypass With Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in Lung Transplantation Operations
We report our experiences of replacing CPB with heparin-bonded low-dose heparin extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support in LTX surgery.
Autologous Serum Therapy of the Ocular Surface With Novel Delivery by Platelet Concentrate Gel
Application of autologous serum to treat a multitude of ocular surface diseases and conditions is a relatively new technique that has gained […]
Bayer Pharmaceuticals Corporation Informs Health Care Professionals Of Important Safety Revisions To The Trasylol Label
Bayer Pharmaceuticals Corporation, in collaboration with the FDA, is informing health care professionals of important safety revisions to the U.S. product information for Trasylol(R) (aprotinin injection) following an FDA Advisory Committee meeting earlier this year.
Experimental Study of Platelet-Rich Plasma Optimizing Mesenchymal Stem Cells Culture
To explore a new method for in vitro expansion of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) by using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in place of fetal calf serum (FCS).
Moderately Hypothermic Cardiopulmonary Bypass and Low-Flow Antegrade Selective Cerebral Perfusion for Neonatal Aortic Arch Surgery
Although deep hypothermic circulatory arrest has been extensively used in neonates for aortic arch surgery, the brain and other organs might be adversely affected by prolonged ischemia and deep hypothermia.
