Facts and Myths of Coagulopathies in Trauma and Major Bleeding - to Clear the Fog | Chapter 6 | Advancement and New Understanding in Medical Science Vol. 3

Coagulopathy-related diffuse bleeding is difficult to manage. Any coagulation factor or procoagulant gets lost through the solution of continuity of the vascular system. Coagulopathy management, therefore, should be timed after source control. Coagulopathies per se are not lethal. An implication of the anatomic and physiologic differences between macro-circulation and microcirculation is that parenchymal bleeding differs from extra parenchymal bleeding, which is what kills fast in most cases.

Study about Cardiac Anesthesia as Super-specialty: A Clinical Approach | Chapter 20 | Recent Developments in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 12

 The development and progress of cardiac anaesthesia has been rapid, despite the fact that it has only been around for a short time. This essentially got up steam in the late 1990s, despite the fact that it began in the 1950s. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a type of heart surgery that has transformed the lives of individuals suffering from severe or multiple coronary artery disease. Apart from cardiac output monitoring, brain tissue oxygen monitoring has also aided cardiac anaesthetic management. Cardiac surgery was known for requiring a large amount of blood and its derivatives. Apart from the considerable health risks associated with transfusions, this resulted in the waste of these valuable assets. During heart surgery, bleeding and abnormal coagulopathy are fairly common.
