Background: Gastric lavage has been one of the pillars of the classic treatment for upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) for many years. The present study investigated effect of gastric lavage with hemostatic powder on complications of UGIB. Methods: This clinical trial study was performed on 54 patients who referred to the emergency department during the year 2017-2018. The subjects were di...

[Purpose] This study assessed the advantages and shortcomings of methods for hemostasis in patients who had received angiography after femoral arterial puncture using manual, compression device, or a combination of manual compression and a compression device. In addition, the success rates, complications, etc, were analyzed. [Subjects and Methods] One hundred and eighty patients who had undergo...

Introduction: Coronary angiography is often associated with complications such as hemorrhage and hematoma that should be considered and be minimized. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of Zinc oxide scallop-shell powder as a topical hemostatic agent (composed mainly of calcium) on complications after coronary angiography. These complications include hemostasis time, low back p...

BACKGROUND/AIMS The clinical course after endoscopic management of delayed postpolypectomy bleeding (DPPB) has not been clearly determined. This study aimed to assess clinical outcomes after endoscopic hemostasis of DPPB and evaluate risk factors for rebleeding after initial hemostasis. METHODS We reviewed medical records of 198 patients who developed DPPB and underwent endoscopic hemostasis ...

background controlling parenchymal hemorrhage especially in liver parenchyma, despite the progress in surgical science, is still one of the challenges that surgeons face when trying to save patients’ lives. researchers in the field are challenging to introduce a more effective method. objectives the current study aimed to determine the haemostatic effect of alum [kal (so4)2] and compare it with...

background: platelet mps are produced automatically during platelet storage. their size is about 0.1 – 1 µm and have ability for sub- endothelium adhering, strengthen of platelet aggregation and also platelet pre- coagulation. in fact, the release of membrane particles helps to signal to the neighbor cells or to seclude target cells from apoptosis. the purpose of this study is to determine the ...

BACKGROUND To compare local injection of hemostatic agents and radiofrequency (RF)-assisted hemostasis in the management of bleeding from the portal vein with varying diameters and blood flow velocities. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixteen Bama pigs were used. Laparotomy was performed to expose the liver and inner diameters and blood flow velocities of the pre-injured portal vein in the hepatic segm...

results the hemostasis time for the ferric chloride concentration group was significantly less than for the control group (p < 0.001). materials and methods in this animal model study, 60 male wistar rats were used. an incision, 2 cm long and 0.5 cm deep was made on rat skin and the hemostasis time was recorded using ferric chloride at different concentrations (5%, 10%, 15%, 25%, and 50%) and t...
