Lysine vasopressin and a long-acting analogue N alpha-triglycyl-lysine vasopressin were compared in a prospective randomized double-blind study including 71 women undergoing cold knife conization of the uterine cervix. Hemodynamic and hemostatic variables were studied. N alpha-triglycyl-lysine vasopressin had the following advantages over lysine vasopressin: it gave significantly less skin pallor, becoming evident at a later stage during the operation. The diastolic blood pressure was significantly lower, as also was the incidence of postoperative hemorrhages. Factor VIII related antigen was lower. On the other hand reduction in heart rate (values before conization compared with values during conization) was more pronounced when N alpha-triglycyl-lysine vasopressin was used, but there was no difference in absolute values between the two groups during conization.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008236	Lypressin	The porcine antidiuretic hormone (VASOPRESSINS). It is a cyclic nonapeptide that differs from ARG-VASOPRESSIN by one amino acid, containing a LYSINE at residue 8 instead of an ARGININE. Lys-vasopressin is used to treat DIABETES INSIPIDUS or to improve vasomotor tone and BLOOD PRESSURE.

D002986	Clinical Trials as Topic	Works about pre-planned studies of the safety, efficacy, or optimum dosage schedule (if appropriate) of one or more diagnostic, therapeutic, or prophylactic drugs, devices, or techniques selected according to predetermined criteria of eligibility and observed for predefined evidence of favorable and unfavorable effects. This concept includes clinical trials conducted both in the U.S. and in other countries.	Clinical Trial as Topic

D006490	Hemostatics	Agents acting to arrest the flow of blood. Absorbable hemostatics arrest bleeding either by the formation of an artificial clot or by providing a mechanical matrix that facilitates clotting when applied directly to the bleeding surface. These agents function more at the capillary level and are not effective at stemming arterial or venous bleeding under any significant intravascular pressure.
