The template bleeding time, indicative of a predictable measure of potential blood loss due to altered platelet function, is unaffected by pregnancy or by the first stage of labor. Two tablets of aspirin (650 mg), but not sodium salicylate or acetaminophen, significantly prolongs the template bleeding time for at least 26 hours after consumption in patients undergoing first or second trimester induced abortion. Patients anticipating induced pregnancy interruption should refrain from any aspirin consumption for at least 26 hours prior to abortion.

Background: This study aimed to compare the incidence of bleeding using two periodontal treatment protocols in patients with recent Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS).
Material And Methods: This is an interim analysis of a double-blind controlled clinical trial evaluating two periodontal treatment schemes in patients with recent ACS treated with different dual antiplatelet regimens: Clopidogrel+ASA, Prasugrel+ASA and Ticagrelor+ASA. After randomisation six patients (22 quadrants) were treated with Scheme A (scaling and root planning-SRP) and six patients (21 quadrants) with Scheme B (ultrasonic scaling-US).

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of three-dimensional (3D) visualization technology assisted percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in the treatment of complex upper urinary tract calculi.
Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed clinical data from 127 patients with complex upper urinary tract stones admitted to Yongchuan Hospital, Chongqing Medical University from January 2020 to January 2023. According to the treatment methods, the patients were divided into an observation group (3D visualization technology assisted PCNL, n = 69) and a control group (conventional PCNL, n = 58).

Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, telehealth (TH) has gained increasing relevance in colorectal patient care, prompting an audit of the TH clinic at a tertiary colorectal unit. This study evaluated telephone-based consultations' clinical efficacy and diagnostic thresholds for new lower gastrointestinal (LGI) bleeding referrals. We conducted a quality assurance audit of the per rectal (PR) bleeding TH clinic at Northern Hospital Victoria, evaluating new LGI bleeding referrals.

Background: The bleeding risk of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) changes over time. Most studies thus far evaluated only the baseline bleeding risk with discordant results. The impact of incident thrombocytopenia during direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) therapy and its relation to bleeding has not been previously investigated.
