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...

background recombinant activated factor vii (rfviia; novoseven® rt, novo nordisk, bagsvaerd, denmark) is a synthetic pro-coagulation factor derived from hamster kidney cells. objectives the purpose of this study was to evaluate the prescribing patterns of recombinant factor viia (rfviia) at a single, tertiary care pediatric hospital by indication of usage and dose administered. materials and me...

glucoronoxylomannan (gxm) is the most important compound of polysaccharide capsule in cryptococcus neoformans that causes infection in its recognition as a foreign agent by immune system. because of its similarity with some naural compounds such as heparin and hyaloronic acid, this study was undertaken to determine the effect of polysaccharide compounds on blood coagulative process and renal pe...

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...
