The efficacy of two blood conservation techniques in decreasing and in preventing the use of homologous blood products was retrospectively studied in 150 patients undergoing internal mammary artery bypass surgery. Patients were matched according to prebypass blood haemoglobin (Hb) content and body surface area and were allocated to one of three groups: in the patients of group 1 (n = 50), normovolaemic anaemia (NA) was accepted postoperatively (haematocrit [Hct] was accepted to a minimum level of 25%); the patients of group 2 (n = 50) were treated with postoperative autotransfusion (AT) of mediastinal shed blood and acceptance of NA. Group 3 (n = 50) contained control patients, not treated with NA or with AT (Hct was accepted to a minimum level of 30%). Patients of group 1 required 3.0 +/- 0.3 units of homologous blood products, but the patients of groups 2 and 3 received significantly more (p less than 0.01) units: 3.9 +/- 0.2 and 4.5 +/- 0.3 units. No donor blood products were needed in 36%, 9% and 5% of the patients in groups 1, 2 and 3 respectively. The net postoperative blood loss was similar in the groups: 1229 +/- 92 ml in group 1, 1098 +/- 74 ml in group 2 and 1243 +/- 72 ml in group 3. However, total blood loss (1982 +/- 135 ml), including the retransfused part (954 +/- 89 ml), was significantly larger (p less than 0.01) in group 2, than in groups 1 and 3.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) |
