Comparative hemostatic efficacy of 4F-PCC in patients with intracranial hemorrhage on factor Xa inhibitors versus warfarin.

Objective: Patients experiencing an intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) on oral anticoagulants often require rapid reversal. This study evaluated patients taking factor Xa inhibitors or warfarin that received reversal with 4-factor prothrombin complex concentrate (4F-PCC) for an ICH. The objective of the study was to determine if the efficacy of 4F-PCC for the reversal of factor Xa inhibitors is noninferior to its use in warfarin reversal in patients with ICH.

Isotopic study of L-Arginine kinetics in the lung during pseudomonas sepsis in an ovine model.

Unlabelled: The objective of the study is to investigate how L-Arginine pulmonary metabolism is altered in response Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) induced septic conditions using an ovine model.

Methods: Seven female sheep were infused with a primed-constant infusion of L-[(15)N2-guanidino, 5, 5, (2)H2] L-Arginine for 28 hs.
