The Effect of Subcutaneous Epinephrine Dosage on Blood Loss in Surgical Incisions.
World J Plast Surg

Article Synopsis
- - The study investigated the effects of different concentrations of epinephrine on blood loss during surgery, using 32 rats divided into four groups for local injections of varying epinephrine solutions and a control group given saline.
- - Results showed that all epinephrine groups experienced significantly less blood loss compared to the control group, but there was no notable difference in effectiveness among the different concentrations of epinephrine tested.
- - The conclusion suggests that while epinephrine effectively reduces bleeding during surgery, using the lowest tested concentration (1:1,000,000) might minimize potential side effects without sacrificing effectiveness.
Background And Objectives: Postoperative bleeding has a great clinical importance and can contribute to increased mortality and morbidity in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery. In this prospective, randomized, double-blind study, we evaluated the effect of prophylactic administration of fibrinogen concentrate on post-coronary artery bypass graft surgery bleeding.
Methods: A total of 60 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery were randomly divided into two groups.

Introduction: Etomidate causes pain when injected intravenously. In this study we sought to determine if pretreatment by ondansetron reduces the pain on injection of etomidate.
Methods: In this randomized, double blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial, 20 patients of both sexes aged between 18 and 50 years of American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status class I or II, whom were candidates for various elective surgical procedures and need more than one intravenous access were enrolled in the study.
Background: Side effects of spinal anesthesia are hypotension, bradycardia and shivering. Five-hydroxytriptamine (5-HT), a serotonergic receptor, may be an important factor associated with inducing the Bezold Jarish reflex (BJR) that may lead to the bradycardia and hypotension in the setting of decreased blood volume.
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the effect of intravenous administration of ondansetron, a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, which could attenuate spinal-induced hypotension, bradycardia and shivering.
