Predictive Factors for Platelet Number after Cardiopulmonary Bypass and Postoperative Blood Loss

Abstract: We retrospectively searched for factors that can predict the circulating platelet count after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and postoperative blood loss. Correlations between the circulating platelet count after CPB and several other perioperative variables were investigated in 42 patients who underwent cardiac surgery using the same type of oxygenator. Correlations between perioperative variables and 24 hour postoperative blood loss were also investigated. A multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that th… Show more

“…14,15 Recovery of platelet function following weaning from CPB has been noted in this and other studies. 16 Kunitomo and colleagues 17 defi ned the factors determining postoperative platelet count: preoperative platelet count, age, and blood transfusions during the operation. The predictive factors for postoperative blood loss were age and amount of bleeding during surgery.…”

“…Other studies have also demonstrated the significance of low postoperative platelet count as one of the major causes of postoperative bleeding. 5,12,13,14,15 Acquired platelet dysfunction as a cause of postoperative bleeding after cardiopulmonary bypass surgery, is amplified by the extracorporeal circuit itself, hypothermia, heparin and other drugs. 6 The drop in platelet count initially may be attributed to the haemodilution by the non-blood priming solution, platelet adhesion to the circuit surfaces, platelet aggregation and activation and removal of damaged platelet by the reticulo-endothelial system.…”

“…The incidence of postoperative thrombocytopenia is about 10-40% according to different criteria of thrombocytopenia [ 2 , 3 , 4 ] . Postoperative thrombocytopenia was reported to be associated with postoperative adverse outcomes, including acute kidney injury (AKI), stroke, and death [ 5 , 6 , 7 ] .…”
