Pretransfusion Comparison of Dialyser-Based Hemoconcentrator with Cell Saver System for Perioperative Cell Salvage

Abstract: Objective Cell Saver system is the method of choice for red blood cell salvage from the surgical field; however, cost is a limiting factor. We at our institute have devised a cost-effective version of dialyser-based autotransfusion system. We performed pretransfusion comparison of our autotransfusion system with conventional cell saver system. Methods A prospective randomized observational study was perfor… Show more

“…Nevertheless, the results are inconclusive depending on the aspect evaluated, and controversy exists. While several studies suggest that the use of Cell Salvage substantially reduces allogeneic blood transfusions [ [54] , [55] , [56] , [57] , [58] , [59] , [60] ], other authors argue the opposite [ [61] , [62] , [63] ]. In this regard, according to a study by Stoneham et al [ 61 ], patients operated on using Cell Salvage had to be transfused with other allogeneic components within the first 24 h postoperatively.…”

“…Approximately 70% of the blood collected can be reinfused[6]. A crucial step is the clearance of free hemoglobin from the reinfused blood, because this molecule can promote pulmonary, renal, and platelet dysfunction[28]. The red blood cells are then resuspended in saline to a hematocrit of 50%-70%, thus being ready for reinfusion.…”
