Epsilon aminocaproic acid for the prevention of delayed postoperative bleeding in retired racing greyhounds undergoing gonadectomy.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of epsilon aminocaproic acid (EACA) on the prevalence of postoperative bleeding in retired racing Greyhounds (RRG), and to assess its effects on selected thrombelastography (TEG) and fibrinolysis variables. STUDY DESIGN Double-blinded, prospective, randomized study. METHODS 100 RRG had elective ovariohysterectomy or orchiectomy and were administered EACA or...
متن کاملIntraoperative Use of Epsilon Amino Caproic Acid and Tranexamic Acid in Surgeries Performed Under Cardiopulmonary Bypass: a Comparative Study To Assess Their Impact On Reopening Due To Postoperative Bleeding
BACKGROUND Open heart surgeries under cardiopulmonary bypass are associated with excessive perioperative bleeding that often requires reoperation. Antifibrinolytics like epsilon aminocaproic acid and tranexamic acid are widely used to control bleeding. There are limited studies primarily showing the impact of these drugs on the incidence of reopening following open heart surgical procedures. Th...
متن کاملThe additive effects of antifibrinolytics: dangers in the OR.
The use of antifibrinolytic agents in recent years had been heralded as a major breakthrough in the prevention of postoperative bleeding. However, whenever the delicate balance between coagulation and fibrinolysis is altered, the potential exists for disaster. There have been a number of complications reported in the literature related to the use of antifibrinolytics. With the availability of o...
متن کاملAprotinin and lysine analogues in high-risk cardiac surgery.
BACKGROUND Antifibrinolytic agents are commonly used during cardiac surgery to minimize bleeding and to reduce exposure to blood products. We sought to determine whether aprotinin was superior to either tranexamic acid or aminocaproic acid in decreasing massive postoperative bleeding and other clinically important consequences. METHODS In this multicenter, blinded trial, we randomly assigned ...
متن کاملEpsilon aminocaproic acid reduces blood transfusion and improves the coagulation test after pediatric open-heart surgery: a meta-analysis of 5 clinical trials.
BACKGROUND Excessive postoperative blood loss after cardiopulmonary bypass is a common problem, especially in patients suffering from congenital heart diseases. The efficacy of epsilon aminocaproic acid (EACA) as a prophylactic treatment for postoperative bleeding after pediatric open-heart surgery has not been determined. This meta-analysis investigates the efficacy of EACA in the minimization...
