Analysis of the Results on Perioperative Blood Loss after a Total Knee Arthroplasty Employing Tranexamic Acid Before or After Inflating the Tourniquet

Ana Torres, Mariano Fernandez-Fairen, Daniel Hernandez Vaquero and Jose Sueiro Fernandez

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: September 30, 2014

Introduction: Tranexamic acid has showed its good results reducing blood loss in total knee arthroplasties. It has also probed being cost-effective (red cell concentrate: 350 euros/ TXA vial 3, 05 euros) but it remains not being clear at what time during the surgery we have to administrate it. In this prospective, randomized study, we have investigated the effects of the use of tranexamic acid before or after inflating the tourniquet on blood loss, transfusion needs and thromboembolic complicati...

Is Left Ventricular Hypertrophy Early Regression Possible?

Delgado-Baeza Emilio, Quintana-Villamandos Begona

Article Type: Editorial | First Published: September 30, 2014

It is well established that hypertension is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Left Ventricular Hypertrophy (LVH) is a relevant problem in patients with hypertension because of its role in long-term severe cardiovascular diseases, including ventricular arrhythmia, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, stroke and sudden death. There is a relationship between the regression of LVH and a decreased morbidity and mortality. Treatment to achieve regression of ...
