BACKGROUND: Significant bleeding following cardiac surgery is a recognised complication, associated with a requirement for re-exploration and blood transfusion, both associated with increased morbidity and early mortality. The aim of this study was t

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the effects of escalation of respiratory support and prolonged postoperative invasive ventilation on patient–centered outcomes, and identify perioperative factors associated with these two respirat

Anaemia is common before cardiac surgery and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The World Health Organization (WHO) definition of anaemia is lower for women than for men by 10 g.l-1 , potentially putting women at a disadvantage com

Aim: We explored the relationship between activated clotting time (ACT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) when used to monitor anticoagulation in patients undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support. Methods: Data obt

Postoperative fibrinogen level is associated with postoperative bleeding following cardiothoracic surgery and the effect of fibrinogen replacement therapy remains uncertain

Publikováno v: Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis. 11:1519-1526

Summary Background: Traditionally, a fibrinogen level > 1 g L−1 has been viewed as the critical plasma concentration required for hemostasis. No definitive trial has investigated the plasma fibrinogen hemostatic threshold and fibrinogen replacement
