Sinus Floor Augmentation With Simultaneous Placement of Dental Implants in the Presence of Platelet-Rich Plasma or Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-7
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the possible benefit of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in sinus grafting as compared with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-7 (rhBMP-7).
Trasylol Reduces Bleeding in CABG Patients on Anti-Platelet Therapy
In patients who require anti-platelet therapy, aprotinin (Trasylol; Bayer's) reduces blood loss and the need for blood transfusions during and after coronary artery bypass surgery, Bayer said on Tuesday.
Avoidance of Bleeding During Surgery in Patients Receiving Anticoagulant and/or Antiplatelet Therapy : Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Considerations
Perioperative management of chronically anticoagulated patients and/or patients treated with antiplatelet therapy is a complex medical problem.
Identification of Pressure Passive Cerebral Perfusion and Its Mediators after Infant Cardiac Surgery
