09 / Clinical implications of the accuracy of non-invasive haemoglobin monitoring

Abstract

Perioperative thromboprophylaxis strategy for neurosurgical procedures is beyond to be solved and it is a timeless matter of discussion among anaesthesiologists and neurosurgeons. At the end of 2015 we developed in our hospital a consensus protocol with the neurosurgical team, similar to the latest published recommendations.
