Multicentre study of operating time and inpatient stay for orthognathic surgery

Hypotensive Anesthesia Is Associated With Shortened Length of Hospital Stay Following Orthognathic Surgery

“…Currently, there have only been a limited number of studies specifically evaluating parameters that influence LOS after orthognathic surgery. [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30] Variables that have been previously identified to correlate with increased LOS include use of nonrigid fixation, 24 increased Abbreviations: ASA, American Society of Anesthesiologists; CI, confidence interval. * Odds ratio represents a 10-unit increase.…”

Comparative Analysis of Tranexamic Acid Use in Minimally Invasive Versus Open Craniosynostosis Procedures

“…23Y27 There have been limited reports of antifibrinolytic agent use during oromaxillofacial surgery. 28,29 D'Errico et al 30 described a reduction in transfusion volumes when aprotinin was administered intraoperatively during craniofacial reconstructions; unfortunately, this agent is no longer available in the United States for routine medical or surgical use because of safety concerns.…”

Transfusion Need in Orthognathic Surgery - A Review

“…Both retrospective and prospective studies were accepted, no matter if the procedures were done in normotension, mild hypotension, controlled hypotension, or any other tension reported 3.1.1. Mandibular surgery and transfusion need Among the papers that included a subgroup of lower jaw surgery, all but Garg et al (2010) 6 mentioned the transfusion need ( 4,[6][7][8][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] These papers were published between1985-2011 and present a total of 9 homologous transfusions and 14 autologous blood transfusions in 1705 BSSO procedures (advancement and set-back). The four papers indicating a transfusion have their data extracted from the period [1981][1982][1983][1984][1985][1986][1987][1988][1989][1990][1991][1992][1993][1994][1995][1996].…”
