Aim and Objective - AIM- To compare the efficacy and safety of tranexamic acid in reducing 5-day treatment failure (i.e., failure to control bleed) in patients with cirrhosis presenting with Upper GI bleed
Primary Objective:
Proportion of patients developing five-day treatment failure (i.e., failure
Background
On February 21th 2020, SARS-CoV-2 outbreak erupted in Italy and, in the immediately subsequent period, all the Italian regional Health Systems had to face with an overwhelming increase of COVID-19 admissions requiring isolation, oxygen, ventilation and ICU beds.
The COVID-19 related
Background
Cerebral arteriovenous malformations consist of tangled blood vessels forming a so-called nidus which connects arteries to veins without the interposition of a capillary bed. Due to subsequent structural changes of draining veins within the nidus, patients are at risk of cerebral
A face to face visit (review in hospital, or remote video interview via smart phone and social media) is required to screen the occurrence of 30-day rate of the composite endpoints of renal dysfunction, myocardial infarction,stroke, seizure, deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism and all-cause
PPH occurs in approximately 1-5% of deliveries in the United States and accounts for 20-25% of maternal deaths worldwide. PPH is difficult to predict, but classically, risk factors for PPH- uterine atony, abruption, retained tissue, lacerations, infection, obesity, preeclampsia, magnesium
RESEARCH QUESTION Does intravenous Tranexamic Acid (TXA) 10mg/kg plus Oxytocin 5 International Units (IU) result in a lower incidence of primary postpartum haemorrhage compared to Oxytocin alone after elective caesarean section.
RATIONALE FOR THE RESEARCH Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is a major
Study Methods:
Study Population A 60 adult (aged >18 years) patients were included with a diagnosis of acute thromboembolic ischemic stroke within 48 hours after onset, according to clinical picture and imaging findings by brain computed tomography (CT) without evidence of hemorrhage, upon admission
INTRODUCTION
There are very few treatment options for patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, a type of hemorrhagic stroke especially prevalent among Chinese, during the acute phase. Blood clot expansion in the brain (hematoma expansion; HE) is one of the most significant predictors for
BACKGROUND Radiation Necrosis: Stereotactic radiosurgery has become integral in treatment of brain tumors and arteriovenous malformations (AVM). In up to 10% of cases, this can lead to radiation necrosis (RN) with significant surrounding vasogenic edema and mass effect. Medical treatment for RN
This is an investigator-initiated study partially subsidized by the Unilab- Biomedis- Biomedis by providing the drug Renogen® 4,000 units/vial, H2 Receptor Blocker and Ferrous Sulfate. The supporting company will also pay the monthly laboratory and ultrasound of the brachial artery of the patients.
The study is a prospective, randomized, double-blinded trial comparing three different doses of TXA (5mg/kg, 10mg/kg, 15mg/kg) in decreasing blood loss during and after total knee and total hip arthroplasty. Patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty and total hip arthroplasty will be analyzed
1.1 BACKGROUND
Maternal haemorrhage is a significant cause of maternal mortality and morbidity worldwide. The incidence of postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) with blood loss in excess of 1000ml is estimated to affect 10.5% of live births globally. This translate to a staggering number of 14 million women
Craniosynostosis is a condition in which there is premature fusion of one or more of the sutures between the bones of the skull. Premature fusion of sutures in the skull limits the ability of the cranial vault to expand to accommodate the rapidly growing brain in infancy and early childhood and
1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are common cerebrovascular abnormalities. The prevalence of IAs has been reported to be 0.8-2.0% of the population. [1-3] The most common presentation of IAs is subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), the annual incidence of which varies by
