Clinical Study on the Blood Conservation Effect of Cell Saver Apparatus During OHS

Abstract
|
|
|
We studied blood salvage effect of Cell Saver Apparatus (CSA) with adult cardiac patients. This study compares blood salvage in two groups of patients undergoing valve replacement or congenital cardiac operation.
Group 1 is composed with 60 patients operated during 1991-1992 using CSA. Group 2 is composed with 60 patients operated during 1990-1991. No special effort was made to salvage blood in Group 2.
The average requirements in Group 1 were approximately one-fourth the amount of RBC products by Group 2. The hospital course, blood chemistry level were comparable for the two groups. CSA produced blood was concentrated, well oxygenated blood and
the
average amount was 830 ml. Any complication was not detected in transfusion of CSA produced blood.
This study shows that CSA allows safe and practical blood salvage during adult cardiac operations.
