Effects of autologous blood withdrawal-reinfusion on perioperative coagulation function in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects of autologous blood withdrawal-reinfusion on the perioperative coagulation function in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB ) . Methods Eighty-four ASA physical status Ⅱ-Ⅳ patients ,without impairment of coagulation function ,scheduled for cardiac surgery with CPB ,were equally and randomly divided into 2 groups using a random number tableautologous blood withdrawal-reinfusion group (group ABWR , n= 44 ) and control group (group C , n= 40 ) . Decreased coagulation function was diagnosed based on the following two criterialaboratory standard of decreased coagulation function and clinical signs .After anesthesia and before the beginning of operation (T1 ) ,at 5 min after heparin was reversed with protamine (T2 ) ,at the end of operation (T3 ) and at 24 h after the end of operation (T4 ) ,venous blood samples were obtained to measure the blood routine and parameters of coagulation function . Blood routine included the red blood cell (RBC ) , hemoglobin (Hb ) , hematocrit (Hct ) , platelet count , and plasma fibrinogen concentration (Fib) .The parameters of coagulation function included thrombelastography (TEG) variables and prothrombin time (PT ) ,activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT ) ,international normalized ratio (INR ) , and activated clotting time (ACT ) . The volume of intraoperative blood loss , amount of mediastinal drainage at 6 and 24 h after operation , consumption of tranexamic acid and heparin during operation , and consumption of fibrinogen after operation ,and requirement for transfusion of allogeneic RBCs ,fresh frozen plasma (FFP) and platelet during operation and within 24 h after operation were recorded .The development of decreased coagulation function during operation and within 24 h after operation .Results Compared with group C , perioperative consumption of allogeneic RBCs were decreased ,reaction time (R) measured by celite-activated TEG was increased at T3 (P 0.05 ) . Conclusion Autologous blood withdrawal-reinfusion provides similar effects on coagulation function with allogeneic blood transfusion ,and does not increase the development of decreased coagulation function in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB .
