Predicting blood usage in cardiac surgery--the transfusion predictor product.
Blood cross-matched for patients undergoing cardiac surgery is used infrequently and represents a significant cost. We investigated the ability to predict the need for intraoperative transfusion. We hypothesized that red blood cell volume is a predictor because dilution is the primary cause for transfusion requirement intraoperatively. A total of 401 consecutive patients having cardiothoracic s...

متن کاملTEG-Directed Transfusion in Complex Cardiac Surgery: Impact on Blood Product Usage.
Complex cardiac procedures often require blood transfusion because of surgical bleeding or coagulopathy. Thrombelastography (TEG) was introduced in our institution to direct transfusion management in cardiothoracic surgery. The goal of this study was to quantify the effect of TEG on transfusion rates peri- and postoperatively. All patients who underwent complex cardiac surgery, defined as open ...
متن کاملDoes blood transfusion harm cardiac surgery patients?
Over recent years there has been a substantial body of evidence demonstrating strong associations between transfusion and adverse outcomes, including myocardial, neurological and renal injury, in a range of clinical settings where transfusion is administered for reasons other than life-threatening bleeding. The strength of these associations across a range of clinical settings suggests that con...
