Journal ArticleDOI
Platelet transfusions during coronary artery bypass graft surgery are associated with serious adverse outcomes
Bruce D. Spiess,David Royston,Jerrold H. Levy,Jane C. K. Fitch,Wulf Dietrich,Simon C. Body,John M. Murkin,Andrea Nadel +7 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that PLT transfusion is associated with adverse outcomes associated with coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Universal definition of perioperative bleeding in adult cardiac surgery.
Cornelius M. Dyke,Solomon Aronson,Wulf Dietrich,Axel Hofmann,Keyvan Karkouti,Keyvan Karkouti,Marcel Levi,Gavin J. Murphy,Frank W. Sellke,Linda Shore-Lesserson,Christian von Heymann,Marco Ranucci +11 more
TL;DR: The proposed universal definition for perioperative bleeding (UDPB) in adult cardiac surgery provides a precise classification of bleeding that is useful in everyday practice as well as in clinical research.
Journal ArticleDOI
The predictive value of modified computerized thromboelastography and platelet function analysis for postoperative blood loss in routine cardiac surgery.
TL;DR: The high negative predictive value of two point-of-care tests supports early identification and targeted treatment of surgical bleeding by distinguishing it from a significant coagulopathy after routine cardiac surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of high-dose aprotinin treatment on blood loss and coagulation patterns in patients undergoing myocardial revascularization.
Wulf Dietrich,Michael Spannagl,Marianne Jochum,P. Wendt,Wolfgang Schramm,Barankay A,F. Sebening,Josef A. Richter +7 more
TL;DR: Intraoperative administration of the proteinase inhibitor aprotinin causes reduction in blood loss and homologous blood requirement in patients undergoing cardiac surgery and remained significantly increased until heparin was neutralized after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of anaphylactic reactions to aprotinin: Analysis of two hundred forty-eight reexposures to aprotinin in heart operations
TL;DR: A reexposure to aprotinin in patients with a high risk of bleeding is justified, because the benefits of aProtinin treatment outweigh the relative risk of a serious allergic reaction.
