Hemostatic Benefits of an Absorbable Polysaccharide Powder in Redo Cardiac Surgery: A Comparative Study by Schroeder SE, Oakes R, Shelstad R, Thompson R

“…Statistically significant lower amounts of CTO in the first 12 hours and the 12– 24-hour intervals were found when absorbable polysaccharide powder was used (817 ± 520 vs 558 ± 352 milliliters, p = 0.028; and 1144 ± 704 vs 830 ± 474 milliliters, p = 0.044, respectively). There were three reoperations in the retrospective cohort due to suspected bleeding, compared to no reoperations in the absorbable polysaccharide powder cohort.Conclusion: This study highlights fewer transfusions, lower CTO, and decreased need for reoperation when using absorbable polysaccharide powder in redo cardiac surgeries. …”
