Abstract

Allogenetic transfusion has long been considered to be a relatively safe and extremely effective blood transfusion treatment. However, acute hypervolemic hemodilution (AHH) combined with the remifentanil-induced controlled hypotension (CH) have rarely been examined. Herein, 40 intracranial aneurysm surgery patients were randomly divided into nitroglycerin group (A group, n=20) and remifentanil group (B group, n=20). During intracranial aneurysm surgery, MAP, HR, Hb, and Hct were recorded. SjvO2, PjvO2, SaO2, PaO2 were measured, and CaO2, Da-jvO2, CjvO2, CERO2, VADL were calculated. In addition, The venous blood samples were collected for determining PT, TT, APTT, FBG, VIII, VWF and electrolytes. The results show that HR in nitroglycerin group dramatically accelerated and HR in remifentanil group slowed at 30 minutes after hypotension and 5 minutes after aneurysm occlusion (P<0.01) after hypotension. Compared with A group, the SjvO2 and CjvO2 of B group increased significantly and the Da-jvO2 and CERO2 decreased significantly at T3, T4. In addition, There were no significant differences between after AHH and before AHH in two groups (P>0.05) on TT, PT, APTT, FIB, VIII, VWF, Na(+), Cl(-), K(+), Ca(2+). These results suggest that ...Continue Reading

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
