Objective To prepare a self-made compound, hemostatic jelly with polylactic acid(PLA), which has the hemostatic and absorbable effect on injured cancellous bone. Methods Two bone defects of 5 mm in diameter and 4 mm in depth were subjected on 20 health rabbits by drilling through their either outside plate of the iliac, and were filled with hemostatic jelly(group A), bone wax(group B) and blank(group C) respectively. Hemostasis were observed and recorded after 1 and 10 minutes. Five specimens were harvested at 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks postoperatively for histological observation. Results ① Hemostatic effect: Bleeding of injured spongy bone stopped within 10 minutes after the treatment of hemostatic jelly and bone wax, but bleeding of balnk did not stop. Hemostatic jelly and bone wax adhered to bone defects firmly within 10 minutes was after the treatment. ② Absorbable effect: Hemostatic jelly and bone defects have not changed visibly in the first 2 weeks. With histological observation 4 to 8 weeks after the operation, hemastatic jelly was absorbed gradually and replaced by osteogenous tissue. It was absorbed completely after 8 to 12 weeks. Bone wax was not absorbed after 12 weeks, no new bone tissue was observed at bone wax area. The blank was replaced by connective tissue and osteogenous tissue partially after 12 weeks. Conclusion The compound hemostatic jelly manifests both hemostatic and absorbable effects on injured cancellous bone and may substitute for bone wax in clinical application.
Objective To investigate the effectiveness in the treatment of single segment thoracic vertebra tuberculosis by limited decompression combined with epidural absorbable haemostat covering and vertebral plate reconstruction based on one-stage posterior approach, debridement, bone fusion, and internal fixation. Methods Between September 2005 and March 2010, 90 cases of single segment thoracic vertebra tuberculosis were treated by using limited decompression combined with epidural absorbable haemostat covering and vertebral plate reconstruction based on one-stage posterior approach, debridement, bone fusion, and internal fixation in 44 patients (treatment group) and by one-stage posterior approach, bone fusion, and internal fixation in 46 patients (control group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, disease duration, affected segment, Cobb angle, Frankle grade, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and Oswestry disability index (ODI) between 2 groups (P gt; 0.05). Results All incisions healed by first intension. All 90 cases were followed up 24-44 months (mean, 38 months). There was no significant difference in ESR between 2 groups at 1 week and 3 months after operation (P gt; 0.05). Postoperative iconography indicated that the bone fusion rate of the treatment group was 100% and no epidural cicatricial tissue or failure of internal fixation was observed, showing significant difference when compared with control group (3 cases having failure of internal fixation) (P=0.032). The Cobb angles were significantly corrected after operation when compared with preoperative angles in 2 groups (P lt; 0.05). At 2 years after operation and at last follow-up, the Cobb angle and correction loss in treatment group were significantly better than those in control group (P lt; 0.05). The ODI and Frankel grade were significantly improved at last follow-up when compared with preoperative ones in 2 groups (P lt; 0.05); the treatment group was significantly better than the control group in the ODI, improvement rate of ODI (P lt; 0.05), and in Frankel grade (Uc=4.368, P=0.000). Conclusion Compared with conventional operation method, it is an ideal operation method to use limited decompression combined with epidural absorbable haemostat covering and vertebral plate reconstruction based on one-stage posterior approach, debridement, bone fusion, and internal fixation for treatment of single segment thoracic vertebra tuberculosis, with minimal wound, less complications, and good function recovery.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the hemostatic effect of traditional class Ⅲ hemostatic powder and aggregate absorbable hemostat in surgeries. MethodsThe PubMed, Embase, CENTRAL, CNKI, VIP and WanFang Data databases were electronically searched to collect controlled studies related to the objectives from inception to September 18th, 2023. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. ResultsA total of 7 randomized controlled trials, 5 cohort studies and 9 animal experiments were included. The results of analysis showed that the group with traditional class Ⅲ hemostatic powder or aggregate absorbable hemostat had a higher hemostatic success rate and shorter hemostatic time than those with no hemostatic material in animal surgeries. And the group with aggregate absorbable hemostat had a higher 10 min hemostatic success rate than those with traditional hemostatic measures. The application of traditional class Ⅲ hemostatic powder in human cardiothoracic surgeries shortened the hemostatic time and reduced drainage after surgeries, but caused more blood loss during knee arthroplasties. Aggregate absorbable hemostat caused less blood loss than traditional hemostatic measures in human hip arthroplasties, and the 5 min and 10 min success rates of aggregate absorbable hemostat group were not worse than those of hemostatic gauze. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that the hemostatic effect of both traditional class Ⅲ hemostatic powder and aggregate absorbable hemostat are better than that of no hemostatic material in animal and human surgery, but the comparison results between the two and with other hemostatic measures are still not clear. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
ObjectiveTo review trauma-induced coagulopathy and use of tranexamic acid in patients with traumatic hemorrhage. MethodsThe relevant literatures about the definition and pathogenesis of trauma-induced coagulopathy, and the use of tranexamic acid in patients with traumatic hemorrhage were reviewed. ResultsTraumatic-induced coagulopathy was a coagulation disorder in the early stage after injury, which was associated with the anticoagu-lation and increasing activity of fibrinolysis. Tranexamic acid as an anti-fibrinolytic drug, it had a good result in clinical application, which could reduce the mortality due to bleeding in use within 3 h after injury, the effect was the best in use within 1 h after injury, but it had no benefit or even would increase the mortality due to hemorrhage in use >3 h after injury. There was no standardized dosage of tranexamic acid, but the volumes of blood loss and blood transfusion had no difference under the different dosages. However, high dosage or long-term use of tranexamic acid might increase the risk of the thrombosis or epilepsy. ConclusionEmergency traumatic patients face a series of death threats related trauma. Appropriate and timely hemostasis is important for prognosis. Early, short-term, and appropriate dosage of tranexamic acid could obviously reduce mortality and adverse events, but its timing and dosages need to be further optimized.

Objective To evaluate the effect of pneumatic tourniquet on perioperative period of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods The perioperative period data of 116 patients over 60 years old with severe knee osteoarthritis treated with TKA between January 2018 and January 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether pneumatic tourniquet was used during operation, the patients were divided into trial group (49 cases, pneumatic tourniquet was not used during operation) and control group (67 cases, pneumatic tourniquet was used during operation). There was no significant difference in gender, age, body mass index, lesion side, disease duration, and preoperative hemoglobin between the two groups (P>0.05). The operation time, actual total blood loss, overt blood loss, hidden blood loss, and percentage of hidden blood loss, knee swelling at 3 days after operation, and range of motion of knee at 2 weeks after operation were recorded and compared between the two groups. Results The operation time of the trial group was significantly longer than that of the control group (t=14.013, P=0.000). The actual total blood loss, hidden blood loss, and percentage of hidden blood loss in the trial group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05); there was no significant difference in the overt blood loss between the two groups (t=−1.293, P=0.200). The knee swelling degree in the trial group was significantly slighter than that in the control group at 3 days after operation, and the range of motion of knee in the trial group was significantly better than that in the control group at 2 weeks after operation (P<0.05). Conclusion Pneumatic tourniquet can reduce the operation time of TKA significantly. However, it may increase the hidden blood loss and knee swelling, and negatively impact the recovery of knee function in the early postoperative stage of TKA.
Three different methods of electrocautery were used to study the effects of electrocoagu-lation on limbs and intraabdominal blood vessel of 6 rabbits. These methods are non-touching, touching and segmental electrocoagulation. The results show that all three methods can satisfactorily stop bleeding of the blood vessel which is smaller than 1. 5mm in diameter. For arteries with the diameter 1.5～2.0mm. the effect of segment electrocoagulation is better than the other methods because it has a long burn end after cautery.
