Bivalirudin for Patients with Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia Undergoing Cardiovascular Surgery
To evaluate the use of bivalirudin in patients with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) undergoing cardiovascular surgery.
Platelet Gel for the Surgical Treatment of Onychocryptosis
The use of platelet gel for the treatment of onychocryptosis by single nonincisional matricectomy can guarantee good hemostasis, with a significant reduction in bleeding, but does not produce a clinically significant reduction in cicatrization time.
Platelet Rich Plasma Injection Grafts for Musculoskeletal Injuries: A Review
PRP provides a promising alternative to surgery by promoting safe and natural healing. However, there are few controlled trials, and mostly anecdotal or case reports.
In vitro Evaluation of Freeze-Dried Bone Allografts Combined With Platelet Rich Plasma and Human Bone Marrow Stromal Cells For Tissue Engineering
Freeze-dried bone allograft (FDBA) might be more effective in combination with platelet rich plasma (PRP) and bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) in accelerating bone healing.
Acute Normovolaemic Haemodilution With Crystalloids in Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery: A Preliminary Survey of Haemostatic Markers
This study was designed to determine the effect of crystalloids on measured coagulation values and perioperative blood loss following ANH in patients undergoing elective coronary revascularization.
Transfusion-Attributable Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Hospital Utilization and Costs in the USA: A Model Simulation
A restrictive transfusion strategy in appropriate at-risk ICU patients may be effective in mitigating the magnitude of this clinical and economic burden.
Fabrication of Pre-Determined Shape of Bone Segment With Collagen-Hydroxyapatite Scaffold and Autogenous Platelet-Rich Plasma
This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of using biohybrids of platelet-rich plasma and collagen-hydroxyapatite beads for fabricating of protrusive bone in a rabbit animal model.
Fabrication of Pre-Determined Shape of Bone Segment With Collagen-Hydroxyapatite Scaffold and Autogenous Platelet-Rich Plasma
This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of using biohybrids of platelet-rich plasma and collagen-hydroxyapatite beads for fabricating of protrusive bone in a rabbit animal model.
Effect of Platelet-rich Plasma on the in vitro Proliferation and Osteogenic Differentiation of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells on Distinct Calcium Phosphate Scaffolds: The Specific Surface Area Makes a Difference
The in vitro effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on cell loading, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) is assessed on distinct resorbable and synthetic calcium phosphate scaffolds.
Comparison of Blood Activation in the Wound, Active Vent, and Cardiopulmonary Bypass Circuit
Contact of blood with the pericardial cavity and surgical wound has been advocated as the main trigger, but suction forces are also considered as a possible contributor. We thus designed a study to identify the possible causes involved in this activation.
Current Clinical Outcomes of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention and Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
We undertook a prospective registry of coronary revascularization by CABG on-pump and off-pump, and PCI with or without DES, to determine clinical outcomes.
