Hemostatic Benefits of an Absorbable Polysaccharide Powder in Redo Cardiac Surgery: A Comparative Study
This study highlights fewer transfusions, lower CTO, and decreased need for reoperation when using absorbable polysaccharide powder in redo cardiac surgeries. Further randomized trials are needed to more accurately define benefits of absorbable polysaccharide powder in redo cardiac surgeries. Word count: 302.
