Effects of ultra-purified polymerized bovine hemoglobin on local tissue oxygen tension in striated skin muscle – An efficacy study in the hamster.
This is another study on the potential benefits of an oxygen carrier (ultrapurified polymerized bovine hemoglobin solution) on tissue perfusion after hypervolemic infusion or exchange transfusion of 50% of blood […]
Comparison of the effects of a 50% exchange-transfusion with albumin, hetastarch, and modified hemoglobin solutions.
This preliminary (considering phase III studies have been completed or are underway) study in rats adds little to what has already been published on this issue in more elaborate animal […]
A double-blind study to evaluate the safety of recombinant human hemoglobin in surgical patients during general anesthesia.
The authors evaluated the safety profile of escalating doses of rHb1.1 in patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia. The adverse effects observed (and the authors’ conclusions) are those that one […]
Noninvasive monitoring in the pediatric intensive care unit.
Nice comprehensive review of non-invasive monitoring in Critical Care. As the equipment becomes more reliable and specific, it would help the future “virtual intensivist”. – A. Shander.
