introduction: the main inhibitors of coagulation pathway are antithrombin (at), protein c and protein s. these inhibitors are necessary to prevent thromboembolism. hereditary deficiency of inhibitors is the main cause of alteration in balance between the anti-clotting and the formation of thrombin. patients with this abnormality are susceptible to venous thromboembolism (vte). two major clinica...

background some of the dental procedures can cause bleeding. bleeding control can be difficult in some patients because of systemic disease or chronic anticoagulant therapy, so they may be at increased risk for bleeding occurrences or even death following invasive dental procedures. this study was schemed to measure the knowledge of general dentists in shiraz city regarding coagulation tests pe...

conclusions an hb-driven algorithm, in combination with the “coagulation box” and the early use of clotting factors, could be a simple and effective tool for improving coagulopathy in multiple trauma patients. results over a 12-month investigation period, 123 severe multiple trauma patients needing intensive care therapy were admitted to our trauma center (mean age 48 years, mean iss (injury se...

 It has been recognized that patients with Cyanotic Congenital Heart Disease (CCHD) show significant bleeding tendency which can be secondary to coagulopathies in these patients. Some coagulation abnormalities are thrombocytopenia, factor deficiencies, fibrinolysis and Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation  (DIC). According to high prevalence of CCHD and major operations in theses patients, th...

background: although stabilization ponds and lagoons are suitable treatment processes due to simplicity of operation and low per capital costs, the effluents of these systems have too high of a total suspended solids concentration to be discharged into receiving waters. this problem is mainly caused by algae. in this study, an electro-coagulation reactor was examined to re­move algae from the f...

Introduction Cold plasma is a self-sterilized, painless, and non-contact method in surgeries. These properties allow it to be applied to the living tissues and heat-sensitive parts. The aim of this study was to design a new cold plasma producer device and evaluate the effects of cold argon plasma on decreasing the coagulation time of blood drop in vitro and that of the injured liver blood in vi...
