Unlabelled:
Studied a rational balance of prevention and control of blood loss and antithrombotic therapy in hip arthroplasty.
Material And Methods:
In view of literature data about significant blood loss during and after the intervention, as well as the formation of the group of patients who refuse blood transfusions for social (including religious) reasons, taken innovative methods for reducing blood loss and needs for blood transfusions.
Results:
Complex of techniques, including conducting spinal anesthesia, controlled hypotension with nitroglycerin and pentamine, intraoperative use of systemic hemostatic and preventive use of erythropoietic stimulating agents, was formed in our proprietary technology to reduce blood loss. Its use has allowed to reach a statistically significant reduction of blood loss and transfusion rate in hip arthroplasty patients.

Introduction to Hemostasis
The three phases of hemostasis involve many clotting factors present in plasma and several substances released by platelets and injured tissue cells. It is a fast, localized,...
Extrinsic and Intrinsic Pathways of Hemostasis
The Extrinsic Pathway
The extrinsic pathway of coagulation is typically initiated by tissue damage that exposes blood to tissue factor (TF), a protein released by the damaged tissue cells outside the blood vessels—this interaction with TF triggers biochemical reactions involving specific clotting factors. The key player here is Factor VII, which...
