Stent Thrombosis Secondary to Ticagrelor Resistance as Demonstrated by Thromboelastography
Stent thrombosis is a dreaded complication of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). It is a prominent cause of mortality and major bleeding [1]. Antiplatelet therapy has played an important role in mitigating this adverse event, yet it is still a major complication. Clopidogrel, an irreversible P2Y12 inhibitor has been a mainstay of antiplatelet therapy for years. Clopidogrel’s nature as a...
متن کاملMonitoring of Hypercoagulability by Thromboelastography in Bariatric Surgery
BACKGROUND Obesity is known as a major risk factor for postoperative vein thrombosis. Thromboelastography (TEG) is used to monitor viscoelastic features of blood clots. The aim of this study was to determine hypercoagulable states in patients undergoing bariatric surgery and to assess dynamics of coagulation parameters in the perioperative setting using TEG. MATERIAL AND METHODS We included 60 ...
متن کاملAbstract: Thromboelastography and Intraoperative Anticoagulation during Reconstructive Microsurgery
INTRODUCTION: Maintaining optimal coagulation is vital for successful microvascular flap transfer. Hypercoagulate states are risk factors for pedicle thrombosis and flap loss.1 Therefore, identifying patients who are at risk for such events is paramount. The viscoelastic Thromboelastography (TEG) is a modern method to assess a patient’s coagulation status and in the past, it has predominantly b...
متن کاملIntraoperative Blood Flow Measurement during Adult Orthotopic Liver Transplantation
LiverTransplantMedicalNote(TX-503-mn)Rev E 2013 Introduction Abnormal hepatic hemodynamics and physiology in the transplanted liver pose continuing challenges for the surgeon. A practical method for measuring two of these hemodynamic parameters, portal venous and hepatic arterial flows, is by intraoperative flow measurements. Transit-time ultrasound technology is well suited to measure these fl...
متن کاملThe Effect of Intraoperative Restricted Normal Saline during Orthotopic Liver Transplantation on Amount of Administered Sodium Bicarbonate
Background: Severe metabolic acidosis occurs during orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) particularly during the anhepatic phase. Although NaHCO3 is considered as the current standard therapy, there are numerous adverse effects. The aim of this study was to determine whether the restricted use of normal saline during anesthesia could reduce the need for NaHCO3.Methods: In this study we enroll...
