Popis: | To determine whether autologous blood donation can be used safely and efficiently in children weighing 8-25 kg, we studied children whose perioperative blood losses were expected to exceed 25% of total blood volume. Blood donations were performed in pediatric units, under the direction of an anesthesiologist and a blood bank physician experienced in paediatric care. Twenty-four children, median age 6 years (1-13), were included. They underwent surgery mainly for digestive or urological disorders, and for orthopedic defects. Forty blood collections were performed of the 46 prescribed. Phlebotomies could not be performed in 1 child because of the mother's apprehension, and in 5 cases because of venous access problems. All phlebotomies were hemodynamically well tolerated. Hemodilution was also performed in 17 children, and cell saver used in 2. Allogeneic blood transfusion was avoided in 21/24 children. |
