Financial and clinical impact of false-positive blood culture results.
During a 4-year period, 9465 specimens for blood culture were obtained from 11,911 highly febrile, otherwise healthy young children. Of these specimens, 87 (0.9%) yielded nonpathogens and were considered to be false-positive blood culture results (FPBCRs). Seventy-two of the patients who provided these specimens were treated on an outpatient basis (resulting in $10,821 in treatment charges), an...
متن کاملThe Effect of Tranexamic Acid on the Blood Loss Volumes in the Patients Underwent Orthognathic Surgeries
Background and Aims: Tranexamic acid has been used to decrease blood loss volumes and the subsequent need for blood transfusion in the orthopedic, spinal and cardiac surgeries. Methods: In this prospective controlled randomized clinical trial study, 24 candidates for orthognathic surgeries received tranexamic acid (20 mg/kg) intravenously just before the surge...
متن کاملDetermination of Vitamin C in Small Volumes of Blood by HPLC/EC
A sensitive procedure for determining total vitamin C (ascorbic acid + dehydrate ascorbic Acid) in a blood drop from a finger prick, before and after the adminis- tration of a vitamin C tablet is described. Analysis was carried out by high per- formance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection (HPLC/EC). Measurements were taken one hour, two hours and six hours after the adm...
متن کاملBlood volumes of Pakistani male donors: implications for blood donation.
BACKGROUND Safety of blood donors rest on withdrawing only appropriate quantities of blood. Adjusting the volumes drawn according to the average blood volumes of any population can ensure this. This requires knowledge of total blood volume of donors, which should ideally be measured by standard methods or derived by alternate suitable method. This observational, cross sectional study was undert...
متن کاملTesting the impact attenuation of loose-fill playground surfaces.
OBJECTIVES Our objective was to measure the impact attenuation performance of five types of loose-fill playground surfaces at a variety of drop heights, material depths, and conditions. METHODS In a laboratory setting, an instrumented head form was dropped on varying depths of loose-fill materials at one foot height increments until critical deceleration values were exceeded. The effects of t...
