OBJECTIVE To determine factors influencing the individual effects of blood transfusions regarding oxygen delivery and consumption. DESIGN Chart review. SETTING A university hospital cardiosurgical intensive care unit. PATIENTS Sixty-seven patients with 170 transfusion events evaluated. INTERVENTIONS Blood transfusion. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Measurements were performed before and after a blood transfusion, separated by 302 +/- 13 mins (mean +/- SEM). The individual increase in cardiac index resulting from a blood transfusion was inversely related to cardiac index before transfusion (p < .001), oxygen delivery index before transfusion (p < .001), and oxygen consumption index before transfusion (p < .001). The individual increase in oxygen delivery index was inversely related to oxygen consumption index before transfusion (p < .001). The individual increase in oxygen consumption index was inversely related to oxygen consumption index before transfusion (p < .001). Individual changes in cardiac index, oxygen delivery index, and oxygen consumption index were not significantly related to preoperative ejection fraction (25%-87%), age (32-81 yrs), and pretransfusion hemoglobin concentration (5.0-11.8 g/dL). CONCLUSION In adult patients after cardiovascular surgery, oxygen delivery- and oxygen consumption-related variables predict the individual response to blood transfusions better than do patient characteristics such as preoperative ejection fraction, age, and pretransfusion hemoglobin concentration. Including oxygen delivery and oxygen consumption, variables into the transfusion decision, thus, may enable a more individual use of allogeneic blood in specific situations.

Effect of different oxygen levels on growth performance, stress response and oxygen consumption in two weight groups of great sturgeon Huso huso

In the present study, different oxygen levels were examined in two weight groups of great sturgeon Huso huso including small size (with initial weight 280.9 ± 49.2 g) and large size (with initial weight 1217.9 ± 138.1 g). The fish were kept in hypoxia (2-3 mg/l), normoxia (5-6 mg/l) and hyperoxia (9-10 mg/l) conditions for 8 weeks and then were individually placed in the tanks with oxygen lev...

THE MALONDIALDEHYDE LEVEL AND ITS PREDICTION ROLE IN PRETERM DELIVERY AND ABORTION

Background & Aims: Increased energy demand and oxygen consumption lead to oxidative stress by free oxygen species. Various factors can predispose mothers to oxidative stress in pregnancy. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the relationship between premature birth and serum MDA (a marker of oxidative stress) during pregnancy. Materials & Methods: This analytical (case-control) study was cond...

Influence of salinity acclimatization on energy, oxygen consumption rate and glucose levels for Carassius auratus (Goldfish)

This study aimed to investigate the influence of increasing salinity concentrations on some indicators of energy consumption such as dissolved oxygen consumption, the consumed energy, as well as the levels of blood glucose in Carassius auratus (Goldfish), because of their direct relation with the metabolism rates when fish are exposed to exertion. Fish with an average weight of 37.5+2.5 g were ...

Blood oxygenation during hyperpressure intraperitoneal fluid administration in a rabbit model of severe liver injury: Evaluation of a novel concept for control of pre-hospital liver bleeding

Oxygen is an essential part of the most important metabolic pathways in aerobic organisms. Oxygen delivery is merely dependent on blood, rendering blood loss a devastating event. Traumatic pre-hospital liver bleeding is a major cause of early trauma deaths in human and animals, with no established therapeutic method yet. Increasing intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) has been shown to reduce liver b...
