The goal of this study was to compare the effect of heater probe thermocoagulation for massive bleeding of peptic ulcers with a control group. Between March 1992 and August 1995 we used heater probe thermocoagulation endoscopically to treat 42 patients with active UGl bleeding or nonbleeding visible vessels at the base of ulcer craters within 2-3 hours of admission. We also selected 42 pati...

Fibrin glue is used for control of bleeding in various surgical procedures. In this work the ability of fibrin glue to seal punctures in the vascular system is demonstrated. Blood samples were taken from rabbits, fibrinogen was separated and fibrin glue was eventually prepared. The rabbits were anesthetized and a midline incision was carried out. The heart and abdominal aorta were exposed. ...

background: upper gastrointestinal (gi) bleeding remains a problem in critically ill-newborns. the use of h 2 blockers, by maintaining gastric ph ³ 4, reduces the risk of stress-ulceration and gastric hemorrhage. this study therefore, has evaluated the effects of short-term prophylactic‎ ranitidine in controlling gastric ph and prevention of gi bleeding in neonates.   methods: this randomized c...

results in all the groups, complete hemostasis occurred. hemostasis times of different concentrations of zinc chloride were significantly less than that of the control group (p < 0.001). objectives this study aimed to compare haemostatic effect of zinc chloride and simple suturing to control external bleeding. materials and methods in this animal model study, 60 male wistar rats were used. an i...

Background: Hemoptysis occurs due to either pulmonary diseases or bronchoscopy interventions. The aim of the present study was to compare the efficacy of the endobronchial instillation of adrenaline with that of tranexamic acid. Methods: Fifty patients were randomly selected as 2 double-blinded sample groups (n=25). In these patients, bleeding could not be controlled with cold saline lavage dur...

OBJECTIVE In the first assessment of trauma patients with major vascular injuries, we need effective and rapid-acting homeostatic materials. In this study we compare the efficiencies of Ankaferd Blood Stopper® and a chitosan linear polymer (Celox®) in an experimental rat model with femoral artery bleeding. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty male Wistar albino rats weighing 200-250 g were divided in...
