Background: Blood transfusion (BT) can be mandated during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)-aided surgery, although it poses a risk for morbidity and mortality. However, inconsistent BT-strategies have long been documented among clinical settings; thereby limiting its prognostic utility and an evidence-based rational decision there-from.
Methods: Accordingly, we investigated the incidence of BT during (CPB) in 105 cardiac-patients and further assessed its impact/association with demographic data, clinical history data, key biochemical-laboratory findings, inhospital outcomes, incidence of hemofiltration and CPB parameters. Statistical significance and correlations were determined with the SPSS-program-package.
Results/conclusion: 12% of patients received RBC-transfusion during CPB. Parametric analyses i.. View More»
