Experimental Models of Brain Hemorrhage Using Clostridial Collagenase
… the most severe form is known as intracerebral hemorrhage, which is bleeding into the brain. The goal of this study is to establish novel animal models to buildup foundations for translational research of intracerebral hemorrhage. We, for the first time, established four animal models, including …

Engineering Materials for Non-Compressible Torso Hemorrhage and Internal Bleeding
Non-compressible torso hemorrhage (NCTH) and internal bleeding results in a significant number of preventable casualties worldwide among civilians and in the field. In particular, internal bleeding can only be diagnosed through changes in vital signs and then through imaging modalities that may …

PULMONARY ARTERY STIFFNESS IN RACEHORSES AFFECTED BY EXERCISE-INDUCED PULMONARY HEMORRHAGE
Exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage (EIPH) is a common cause of poor performance in racehorses and reflects extreme exercise pressures and progressive changes of the pulmonary vessels. The aim of this thesis was to investigate whether pulmonary artery stiffness (PAS), a Doppler-derived index of …

Spontaneous Angiogram Negative Subarachnoid Hemorrhage : A Retrospective Single Center Cohort Study
… Spontaneous angiogram negative subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is considered a benign illness with little of the aneurysmal SAH-related complications. We describe the clinical course, SAH-related complications and outcome of patients with angiogram negative SAH. Methods: We retrospectively …

Retrospective Review of Postpartum Hemorrhage Incidence, Risk Factors, and Maternal Morbidity
BACKGROUND: Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) remains one of the most common causes of maternal mortality worldwide. In the US, PPH accounts for 2-3% of yearly maternal deaths and is also associated with serious morbidity including the need for blood transfusion, ICU admission, and hysterectomy. In the …

Simulation Based Post-Partum Hemorrhage Training in Nigeria: A Pilot Project
<p>Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity among childbearing women globally (Ononge, Mirembe, Wandabwa, & Campbell, 2016). Although this outcome is preventable, it remains a significant cause of death among women, especially in underdeveloped countries. …

Lean Management Principles to the Creation of Postpartum Hemorrhage Care Bundles
<p>Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is the number one cause of pregnancy-related death in the US. The Maternity local improvement team (LIT), co-led by an Obstetrician and Board Certified Clinical Nurse Specialist found that each month the maternity unit averages 40 PPHs with 1-2 resulting in an …
