Surgical treatment can alleviate pain, correct deformity and reconstruct spinal stability. With the increase of the amount and difficulty of spinal surgery, perioperative bleeding can not be ignored. Excessive bleeding can cause a variety of complications and even affect the prognosis of patients. Reducing bleeding is important not only to maintain the hemodynamic balance of patients, but also to observe the surgical field of vision. Therefore, how to effectively control the amount of intraoperative bleeding has always been the focus of spinal surgeons. It is particularly important to formulate an effective perioperative bleeding management plan. Preoperative operation plan and the use of various hemostatic drugs, materials and equipment have shown good results in safely reducing the amount of bleeding. The application of hemodilution technology and intraoperative autologous blood reinfusion technology also provides a guarantee for reducing the amount of bleeding and allogeneic blood transfusion.展开更多

Stop the Bleed—Active bleeding control (ABC) program in Hyderabad recently showed that lay first responders can be effectively trained. However, the willingness of high school students to train in bleeding control is unknown. We report Stop the Bleed training needs assessment from high schools in India and estimate the potential multiplier effect. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted from 12 randomly selected schools in Hyderabad. The study was to understand current knowledge, skills and willingness to get trained and respond to life-threatening bleeding from injuries. 107 Participants (35 Teachers and 72 students) were purposively selected for telephonic interviews with a structured questionnaire. Results: Response rate was 93% overall. 80% of participants have never been trained in bleeding control. 84% reported willingness to be trained, train others and help bleeding victims. All the teachers reported that stop the bleed training would be useful in high schools. 70.6% of teachers recommended that training could start from middle school (10 to 15 years), 47% preferred the online training mode. Only 20% of participants had prior training in lifesaving first aid and 32% did not know the number of emergency medical services (EMS). Each trained participant has the potential to train 3 to 4 people at the household level and perhaps more at the community level. Conclusion: The surveyed schools in Hyderabad do not have the knowledge, skills, or training curriculum in Stop the Bleed. Students and teachers are willing to be trained and train others, with great potential for a “multiplier-effect” in the community.展开更多

An adapted version of the 1D Euler equations with additional source terms is discretized with a finite volume method and solved in time by a fourth-order Runge-Kutta scheme. The equations are discretized at midspan both inside the blade rows and the non-bladed regions. The source terms express the blade-flow interactions and are estimated by calculating the velocity triangles for each blade row. Loss and deviation correlations are implemented and compared to experimental data in normal flow, stalled flow and reversed flow regions. Transient simulations are carried out and a parameter study is presented to analyze the shape of the surge cycles and the frequency of the surge oscillations. At last, a bleeding control strategy is implemented to study the recoverability of the instabilities in a compression system.展开更多
