Preoperative autologous donation has advantages and disadvantages. The advantages of autologous blood donation prevents transfusion-transmitted disease, red cell lloimmunization, decreases the number of banked allogeneic units needed, provides compatible blood for patients with …show more content…
May be the patient can have to perioperative anemia, and increased likelihood of transfusion, and delayed recovery.
The basics three methods for autologous transfusion are cell salvage, preoperative autonomous donation, and acute normovolaemic hemodilution. The cell salvage is the most common technique and consists of blood collection from suction, surgical drains, then have to retransfusion back to the patient after the blood cells are filtered or washed.
When is collected Preoperative autologous donation is used a particular procedure, and stored in the blood bank, them transfused to the patient when is necessary. Acute normovolaemic hemodilution is when blood is collected right before a procedure and the blood volume collected is restored as crystalloid or colloid. After the procedure is completed, the blood is then transfused back to the patient after achieving
