Background: There is a large amount of hidden blood loss (HBL) after total hip arthroplasty (THA), but the effective and safe methods to reduce HBL are still controversial. Methods: Sixty-nine consecutive patients who underwent THA in our hospital from January 2015 to December 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into two groups, Group A (THA without oxidized regenerated cellulose) and Group B (THA with oxidized regenerated cellulose). Demographics, perioperative laboratory values, intraoperative data, blood loss, transfusion rate, transfusion reactions, and surgical complications were collected and analyzed. Results: A total of 37 (54%) patients used oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) in operation. The total blood loss (TBL), postoperative blood loss (PBL), hemoglobin (Hb) loss, and hidden blood loss (HBL) in group B were significantly lower than in group A. Conclusions: The use of ORC to fill the bone surface and soft tissue gap before incision closure can effectively reduce HBL and may be a potential treatment for blood prevention after THA.

Reducing Line Loss01:18

Reducing Line Loss

In a three-phase circuit, line loss is an indicator of energy dissipated as heat due to the resistance of transmission lines. To address this, incorporating transformers into the system—a step-up transformer at the source and a step-down transformer at the load—is a strategic solution. Two three-phase transformers are introduced to improve this.
With a step-up transformer at the source, the voltage is increased, thereby reducing the current in the transmission lines since power loss in...

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss01:57

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss

Though evaporation from plant leaves drives transpiration, it also results in loss of water. Because water is critical for photosynthetic reactions and other cellular processes, evolutionary pressures on plants in different environments have driven the acquisition of adaptations that reduce water loss.

Redox Titration: Other Oxidizing and Reducing Agents

Besides iodine, other oxidizing or reducing agents can serve as titrants in redox titrations. Common oxidizing titrants include KMnO4, cerium(IV), and K2Cr2O7. The choice of oxidizing titrants depends on factors like stability, cost, analyte strength, and reaction rate between the analyte and titrant. KMnO4 is a strong oxidizing titrant that reduces from Mn(VII) to Mn(II) in a highly acidic solution, simultaneously oxidizing the analyte to a higher oxidation state. In this case, KMnO4 acts as a...

Oxidation Numbers

In redox reactions, the transfer of electrons occurs between reacting species. Electron transfer is described by a hypothetical number called the oxidation number (or oxidation state). It represents the effective charge of an atom or element, which is assigned using a set of rules.

Line Loss01:10

Line Loss

The different configurations of source-load connections include wye (star) and delta connections. The relationship between line and phase voltages and currents varies depending on the configuration. When the source is supplying power, it is transmitted through the wires to the load, and during this transmission, some power is absorbed by the wires, leading to line loss.
Line loss impacts power delivery efficiency in a balanced three-phase circuit. The symmetry in such a circuit simplifies the...
