BACKGROUND Drainage and tranexamic acid (TXA) have been widely used in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, it remains unclear whether it is necessary to clamp the drain after minimally invasive TKA (MIS-TKA) when TXA is used. We therefore conducted a randomized controlled trial to compare the effects of clamping versus not clamping drainage following MIS-TKA in patients in whom TXA was used...

various kinds of chemicals are used in papermaking to enhance paper properties and to improve efficiency of the production process. in the presence of cationic starch as an anionic charge catcher, effects of nano silica/cationic polyacrylamide complex on retention, drainage time, water volume drained by dynamic drainage jar and properties of paper recycled from old corrugated container were inv...

Anatolichthys marassantensis widely distributed in K?z?l?rmak drainage, and few records also available from Ye?il?rmak drainage. However, the existing literature has not provided a morphological comparison between populations systematic approach. The present study examines, for first time, morphology/morphometry of A. both drainages based on additional material Simenlik-Akgöl Lagoon Lake draina...

BACKGROUND During total hip arthroplasty (THA) drainage is used by most surgeons. However, the optimal drainage strategy remains controversial. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to determine the safety and efficacy of a four-hour drainage clamping technique in patients undergoing THA. MATERIAL AND METHODS There were 64 patients who underwent THA from March 2012 to December 2015 who w...

BACKGROUND To present a protocol of a prospective, cohort study in which four groups of spinal cord injury (SCI) patients will participate. (Patients with indwelling urethral catheter; patients who perform intermittent catheterisation without wearing a penile sheath; patients who perform intermittent catheterisation and wear penile sheath as well; and patients with penile sheath drainage). OB...

Gas control in the heading face of a coal roadway is an important and difficult point mining China. On basis analyzing disadvantages high gas cost long drainage period existing mine face, long-distance pre-drainage method drilling proposed to so as improve tunneling speed. Applied engineering geological conditions Changcun mine, technology studied detail. First, migration model considering perm...

PURPOSE To assess the therapeutic value of two different drainage catheters in treating chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH). MATERIALS AND METHODS Two types of drainage catheters can be used to treat CSDH according to the position of holes in the catheter: open-type or closed-type catheter. In this retrospective study, 199 total patients with CSDH were reviewed according to catheter type. Among ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided biliary drainage techniques are alternative procedures in cases of obstructive jaundice with altered anatomy or failed ERCP. Complications related to EUS-guided antegrade drainage (EUS-AD) are still present in up to 10% of cases, and combination of procedures is sometimes suggested to avoid adverse events. The purpose of our study is ...
