Clinical analysis of the application of autologous blood transfusion in neurosurgery of primary hospital / 中国医师进修杂志

ABSTRACT

Objectives To observe the clinical significance and application value of autologous blood transfusion in neurosurgery of primary hospital. Methods Four hundred and fourteen patients who underwent the neurosurgery operation and were subjected to intraoperative blood transfusion were selected, among whom 97 patients were subjected to autologous blood transfusion (observation group), and 317 patients were subjected to heterogenous blood transfusion (control group). The condition of intraoperative blood transfusion, changes of hemoglobin and hematocrit, blood transfusion related cost were compared between 2 groups. Results There were no statistical differences in operation time, infusion volume, rate of transfusion related complications and postoperation hemoglobin, hematocrit between observation group and control group (P>0.05). The patients in control group were infused with 189 000 ml, and the transfusion liquid volume proportion of total blood transfusion was 79.22%(189 000/238 580);13 patients in observation group were used the heterogenous blood transfusion with 5 400 ml, and the transfusion liquid volume proportion of total blood transfusion was 10.30%(5 400/52 430). Eighty-six patients (88.66%, 86/97) in observation group performed autologous blood collection and transfusion, the volume of autologous collection was 80 650 ml, and the volume of transfusion was 47 020 ml. Eleven patients in observation group did not perform autologous blood transfusion, among whom 6 patients was because of operational and mechanical reasons, and 5 patients performed collection but did not transfuse. The cost of heterogenous concentrated suspension red blood cell over 6 U was significantly higher than the cost of disposable material and injection of autologous blood(2 287.06 ± 243.52) yuan vs. (1 595.08 ± 133.95) yuan, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). The rate of heterogenous concentrated suspension red blood cell 6 U in control group was 14.83%(47/317), and the rate of over 6 U was 6.62%(21/317). Conclusions The autologous blood transfusion is safe and effective, and it is worth popularizing in neurosurgery of primary hospital. But in the process of its application, it is necessary to strengthen the user′s operating skills and ensure the quality of autologous blood transfusion.
