OBJECTIVE
Rapid hemostasis is crucial in controlling severe extremity hemorrhage. Our objective is to evaluate the hemostatic efficacy of a newly modified amylopectin powder in a model of severe extremity arterial hemorrhage.
METHODS
Anesthetized pigs underwent severe, reproducible femoral artery
HES are high-polymeric glucose compounds obtained via hydrolysis and subsequent hydroxyethylation from the highly-branched amylopectin contained in maize. Initially, the HES were only characterized by their in vitro molecular weight (Mw), without consideration of the in vivo hydrolysis by
An adult patient with macular cherry-red spots, a gargoyle-like physical appearance, cerebellar ataxia, myoclonus, convulsive seizures, and pyramidal tract signs showed a profound deficiency of beta-galactosidase in liver and brain. Thrombocytopathy of undetermined etiology was evident since
Glycogen storage disease type IV (GSD IV, or Andersen disease) is an autosomal recessive disorder due to the deficiency of 1,4-alpha-glucan branching enzyme (or glycogen branching enzyme, GBE1), resulting in an accumulation of amylopectin-like polysaccharide in muscle, liver, heart and central and
The indications, pharmacology, adverse reactions, clinical studies, dosage, and cost of hetastarch are reviewed. Hetastarch is a plasma volume expander used in adults for the treatment of shock caused by hemorrhage, burns, surgery, sepsis, or other trauma. It is a heterogenous macromolecular agent
