Fibrinogen replacement therapy in acquired perioperative bleeding (UNI-MED Science) (PDF Book)
About the Book
By Sibylle Kietaibl
Fibrinogen is an essential molecule that plays a crucial role in stopping and preventing bleeding in humans. Fibrin networks form robust clots that protect against maternal death due to peripartum haemorrhage (PPH) and exsanguination due to trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC), which are the main causes of death in young age groups. Fibrinogen is also critical in ensuring patient outcomes during and after major surgical procedures in all age groups. This book compiles all relevant aspects concerning hypofibrinogenaemia and fibrinogen replacement and features internationally accepted experts who share their knowledge and expertise to make it a helpful tool in clinical practice. They highlight the pathophysiology of fibrinogen and its use in cardiac surgery, trauma bleeding, peripartum haemorrhage, and paediatric patients and discuss the application of fibrinogen from different sources.
