RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The use of autologous blood transfusion in digestive tract surgeries, whether after preoperative blood collection or intraoperative blood salvage, is an alternative to allogeneic blood, which brings with it certain risks and shortage, due to the lack of donors. Studies have shown lower mortality and longer survival associated with autologous blood, however the theoretical possibility of spreading metastatic disease is still one of the limiting factors of its use. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the application of autologous transfusion in digestive tract surgeries, noting the benefits, damages and effects on the spread of metastatic disease. METHODS: This is an integrative review of the literature available in the PubMed, Virtual Health Library and SciELO databases, by searching for "Autologous Blood Transfusion AND Gastrointestinal Surgical Procedures". Observational and experimental studies and guidelines published in the last five years in Portuguese, English or Spanish were included. RESULTS: Not all patients benefit from blood collection before elective procedures, with the time of surgery and hemoglobin levels some of the factors that may indicate the need for preoperative storage. Regarding the intraoperative salvaged blood, it was observed that there is no increased risk of tumor recurrence, but the importance of using leukocyte filters and blood irradiation is highlighted. There was no consensus among the studies whether there is a maintenance or reduction of complication rates compared to allogeneic blood. The cost related to the use of autologous blood may be higher, and the less stringent selection criteria prevent it from being added to the general donation pool. CONCLUSION: There were no objective and concordant answers among the studies, but the strong evidence of less recurrence of digestive tumors, the possibility of changes in morbidity and mortality, and the reduction of costs with patients suggest that the practice of autologous blood transfusion should be encouraged in digestive tract surgeries. It is necessary to note if the deleterious effects would stand out amidst the possible benefits to the patient and to health care systems.

Resumen Objetivo Los pacientes intervenidos de cirugía cardíaca presentan riesgo elevado de ser transfundidos con sangre durante el postoperatorio, debido al descenso de sus cifras de hemoglobina y hematocrito. Una de las alternativas a la transfusión sanguínea es el uso del recuperador celular intraquirúrgico. El objetivo de este estudio fue identificar si el uso del recuperador celular intraquirúgico disminuye la tasa transfusional durante el postoperatorio inmediato. También se ven las complicaciones postquirúrgicas inmediatas en ambos grupos. Material y Métodos Estudio analítico, prospectivo con dos cohortes de pacientes distribuidos en grupo control (162) y grupo intervención (162). Se analizarón variables sociodemográficas, de sus diagnósticos y tratamientos quirúrgicos, tiempos de isquemia cardíaca, hemoglobina, hematocrito, transfusión sanguínea y hemorragias, así como variables propias del recuperador celular. Las complicaciones estudiadas fueron; hemoglobinuria, fiebre, náuseas y vómitos. Se obtuvo el consentimiento informado de todos los pacientes y se sometió los datos al paquete estadístico SPSS versión 22.0. Resultados Las cifras de hemoglobina y hematocrito de los pacientes después de ser intervenido quirúrgicamente, fueron diferentes entre los grupos respectivamente (GC, 8,3 g/dL, 22,8%. GI,10,4 g/dL, 31,1%). Coincidiendo que los mayores transfundidos fueron los del grupo control (18,2%) frente al grupo intervención (3,9%). El grupo que presentó mayor complicación fue el grupo intervención (13,6%) que eran los que utilizaron el recuperador celular. Siendo la hemoglobinuria (82%) la mayor complicación. Conclusiones Los pacientes que utilizaron el recuperador celular disminuyeron la necesidad transfusional, sin embargo, fueron los que mayor incidencia de hemoglobinuria padecieron.
Objetive Patients undergoing cardiac surgery are at high risk of being transfused with blood during the postoperative period, due to the decrease in haemoglobin and haematocrit levels. One of the alternatives to blood transfusion is the use of the intraoperative cell saver. The objective of this study was to identify whether the use of the intra-uremic cell saver decreases the transfusional rate during the immediate postoperative period. The immediate postoperative complications were also demonstrated in both groups. Material and Methods Analytical, prospective study with two cohorts of patients distributed in control group (162) and intervention group (162). Sociodemographic variables, their diagnoses and surgical treatments, time of cardiac ischemia, haemoglobin, haematocrit, blood transfusion and haemorrhages, as well as variables specific to the cell saver were analyzed. The complications studied were; haemoglobinuria, fever, nausea and vomiting. The informed consent of all the patients was obtained and the data was submitted to the statistical package SPSS version 22.0. Results The haemoglobin and haematocrit values of patients after surgery were different between groups (GC, 8.3 g/dl, 22.8%, GI, 10.4 g/dl, 31.1 g %). Coinciding that the major transfused were those of the control group (18.2%) versus the intervention group (3.9%). The group that presented the greatest complication was the intervention group (13.6%) who were those who used the cell saver. Hemoglobinuria (82%) being the major complication. Conclusions Patients who used the cell saver decreased the need for transfusion, but were the ones with the highest incidence of hemoglobinuria.

Introducción: la transfusión autóloga presenta tres modalidades: transfusión autóloga con predepósito, hemodilución preoperatoria (normovolémica o hipervolémica) y el sistema de recuperación de sangre autóloga (cell saver) intraoperatoria o posoperatoria. Objetivo: demostrar la efectividad del uso del sistema de recuperación de sangre autóloga en pacientes quirúrgicos de alta complejidad en el Hospital Alcívar. Método: estudio retrospectivo, no experimental, de observación indirecta, con análisis correlacional. La muestra fue de 112 pacientes intervenidos por afecciones cardiovasculares, ortopédicas y traumatológicas, incluidos según criterios de inclusión y exclusión. Se utilizó cell saver en 56 pacientes, y 56 pacientes utilizaron transfusiones de sangre homóloga. Resultados. el cell saver fue beneficioso en 93 por ciento de los pacientes; la morbilidad y la mortalidad disminuyeron, principalmente en los pacientes intervenidos de cualquier afección cardiovascular y aumentó el índice costo/beneficio, debido a que se priorizaron los recursos económicos. En traumatología y ortopedia no fue muy beneficioso, pues la cantidad de sangre recuperada fluctuó entre 300 y 500 mL en intervenciones convencionales, lo que motivó el uso de hemoderivados y aumentó el costo. En resecciones tumorales e instrumentaciones en diferentes segmentos de la columna vertebral se recuperó hasta 800 mL de sangre, lo que resultó significativo. La tasa de complicaciones fue menor en pacientes que utilizaron cell saver (7 por ciento) frente a los pacientes que utilizaron hemoderivados homólogos (32 por ciento). Se constató una menor estancia hospitalaria en el grupo cell saver (1-20 días) en comparación con los que usaron hemoderivados homólogos (> 10 días, en 5 casos fue mayor 21 días). Conclusiones: el uso de sistema de recuperación de sangre autóloga constituye un procedimiento efectivo para infundir hemoderivados con mayor seguridad(AU)
Introduction: Autologous transfusion has three modalities: autologous transfusion with predeposit, preoperative hemodilution (normovolemic or hypervolemic), and the system for autologous blood recovery (cell saver), whether intraoperative or postoperative. Objective: To show the effectiveness of the use of the autologous blood recovery system in highly complex surgical patients at Alcívar Hospital. Method: Nonexperimental, retrospective study, of indirect observation and with correlational analysis. The sample consisted of 112 patients who underwent surgery for cardiovascular, orthopedic and traumatological conditions, chosen based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The cell saver system was used in 56 patients and 56 patients used homologous blood transfusions. Results: The cell saver system was beneficial in 93 percent of patients; morbidity and mortality decreased, mainly in patients operated for any cardiovascular condition, while the cost-benefit ratio increased, due to the fact prioritization of economic resources. In traumatology and orthopedics, it was not so beneficial, since the amount of blood recovered fluctuated between 300 and 500 mL in conventional interventions, which motivated the use of blood products and increased the cost. In tumor resections and instrumentation of different spine segments, up to 800 mL of blood were recovered, which was significant. The complication rate was lower in patients who used the cell saver system (7 percent), compared to patients who used homologous blood products (32 percent). A shorter hospital stay was observed in the cell saver group (1-20 days), compared to those who used homologous blood products (over 10 days, while in 5 cases it was over 21 days). Conclusions: The use of the autologous blood recovery system is an effective procedure to infuse blood products with greater safety(AU)

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a leading contributor to maternal morbidity and mortality in the United States and globally. Although the rate of PPH is generally decreasing nationally, severity of PPH appears to be increasing, potentially related to the various comorbidities associated with women of childbearing age. There is increasing evidence of risks associated with allogeneic blood transfusion, which has historically been the classic therapeutic approach for treatment to PPH. Pregnant women are particularly susceptible to the implications of sensitization to red cell antigens, a common sequela to allogenic blood transfusion. Autologous blood transfusion eliminates the potential of communicable disease transmission as well as the conceivable threat of a blood transfusion reaction. Recent technological advances allow cell salvage coupled with the use of a leukocyte filter to be used as an alternative approach for improving the outcome for women experiencing a PPH. Modest changes in standard operating procedure and continued training in use and application of cell salvaged blood may assist in minimizing negative outcomes from PPH. Salvaged blood has been demonstrated to be at least equal and often superior to banked blood. We discuss nursing implications for application of this technology for women with PPH. Continued research is warranted to evaluate the impact that application of cell salvage with filtration has on the patient experiencing a PPH.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of the cell salvage system in total hip arthroplasty surgeries and whether the cell salvage system can reduce the allogeneic blood transfusion requirement in total hip arthroplasty patients. METHODS: We reviewed retrospectively the medical records of patients who underwent hip arthroplasty surgeries between 2010 and 2012 in a university hospital. A total of 181 arthroplasty patients were enrolled in our study. RESULTS: In the cell salvage group, the mean perioperative rate of allogeneic blood transfusion was significantly lower (92.53 ± 111.88 mL) than that in the control group (170.14 ± 116.79 mL; p < 0.001). When the mean postoperative transfusion rates were compared, the cell salvage group had lower values (125.37 ± 193.33 mL) than the control group (152.22 ± 208.37 mL), although the difference was not statistically significant. The number of patients receiving allogeneic blood transfusion in the CS group (n = 29; 43.2%) was also significantly lower than control group (n = 56; 73.6%; p < 0.05). In the logistic regression analysis, perioperative amount of transfusion, odds ratio (OR) -4.257 (95% CI -0.502 to 0.184) and operation time, OR: 2.720 (95% CI 0.001-0.004) were independent risk factors for the usage of cell salvage system. CONCLUSION: Cell salvage is an effective strategy for reducing the need for allogeneic blood transfusion in the perioperative setting; it provides support to patient blood management interventions. Thus, we recommend the cell salvage system for use in total hip arthroplasty surgeries to reduce the need for allogeneic blood transfusion, if possible.
RESUMO JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVO: Determinar a eficácia do sistema de recuperação intraoperatória de sangue em artroplastia total de quadril e se o sistema de recuperação intraoperatória de sangue pode reduzir a necessidade de transfusão de sangue alogênico em pacientes submetidos à artroplastia total de quadril. MÉTODOS: Análise retrospectiva dos prontuários de pacientes submetidos a cirurgias de artroplastia de quadril entre 2010 e 2012 em um hospital universitário. Foram inscritos no estudo 181 pacientes submetidos à artroplastia. RESULTADOS: A média da taxa de transfusão de sangue alogênico no período perioperatório foi significativamente inferior no grupo de recuperação intraoperatória de sangue (92,53 ± 111,88 mL) do que no grupo controle (170,14 ± 116,79 mL; p < 0,001). Quando as médias das taxas de transfusão no pós-operatório foram comparadas, o grupo de recuperação intraoperatória de sangue apresentou valores inferiores (125,37 ± 193,33 mL) aos do grupo controle (152,22 ± 208,37 mL), embora a diferença não tenha sido estatisticamente significativa. O número de pacientes que recebeu transfusão de sangue alogênico no grupo RC (n = 29; 43,2%) também foi significativamente inferior ao do grupo controle (n = 56; 73,6%; p < 0,05). Na análise de regressão logística, a quantidade de transfusão no período perioperatório, a razão de chance (OR) -4,257 (95% CI -0,502-0,184) e o tempo cirúrgico OR: 2,720 (IC 95% 0,001-0,004) foram fatores de risco independentes para o uso de sistema de recuperação intraoperatória de sangue. CONCLUSÃO: A recuperação intraoperatória de sangue é uma estratégia eficaz para reduzir a necessidade de transfusão de sangue alogênico no período perioperatório, que auxilia no manejo sanguíneo durante as intervenções. Portanto, recomendamos o sistema de recuperação intraoperatória de sangue para uso em artroplastia total de quadril para diminuir a necessidade de transfusão de sangue alogênico, quando possível.

Las transfusiones sanguíneas alogénicas han tenido un rol central en el desarrollo de la medicina, principalmente como terapia de soporte en pacientes críticos, cirugía mayor, trauma y trastornos hematopoyéticos. Sin embargo, su utilización no está exenta de importantes efectos adversos y de altos costos asociados. Además, los productos sanguíneos son un recurso limitado que no debe ser desperdiciado. Por otro lado, la cirugía en pacientes que rehúsan la utilización de hemoderivados ha mostrado igual o mejores resultados que los pacientes que aceptan transfusiones. Esto ha llevado a buscar un manejo apropiado de la sangre en todos nuestros pacientes, evitando los riesgos y costos innecesarios de las transfusiones, pero permitiéndolos cuando se cree que los beneficios serán mayores que los riesgos. En este trabajo se presentan 3 pilares esenciales. El primero es el diagnóstico y manejo apropiado de la anemia preoperatoria, disminuyendo los riesgos perioperatorios, ya que la anemia por sí sola es un factor de morbimortalidad. El segundo pilar está constituido por diversas técnicas, que están disponibles en la actualidad, para minimizar el sangrado perioperatorio. Finalmente, el tercer pilar es mejorar la tolerancia a la anemia. El uso en conjunto de diversas técnicas descritas en este trabajo ha mostrado ser efectivo en disminuir el sangrado perioperatorio, la necesidad de transfusiones alogénicas y las unidades de sangre utilizadas, lo cual podría permitir mejores resultados clínicos en nuestros pacientes.
Allogeneic blood transfusions have played a central role in the development of medicine, mainly as a support therapy in critically ill patients, major surgery, trauma and hematopoietic disorders. However, their use is not without significant adverse effects and associated high costs. Moreover, blood products are a limited resource that should not be wasted. Furthermore, surgery in patients who refuse the use of blood products has shown equal or better results than patients who accept transfusions. This has led to seek an appropriate blood management in all our patients, avoiding unnecessary costs and risks of transfusions, but allowing them when they believe the benefits outweigh the risks. In this paper three essential pillars are presented. The first is the appropriate diagnosis and management of pre-operative anaemia decreasing perioperative risk, since anaemia itself is a factor of morbidity and mortality. The second pillar is formed by various techniques that are available today to minimize bleeding perioperative. Finally, the third pillar is to improve tolerance to anaemia. The joint use of various techniques described in this paper has proven effective in decreasing perioperative bleeding, the need for allogeneic transfusions and blood units used, which may allow better clinical outcomes in our patients.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the therapeutic effects between drainage blood reinfusion and temporary clamping drainage after total knee arthroplasty in patients with rheumatoid arthritis to provide a basis for clinical practice. METHODS: Data from 83 patients with rheumatoid arthritis undergoing total knee arthroplasty were retrospectively analyzed. The 83 patients were divided into a drainage blood reinfusion group (DR group, nâ=â45) and a temporary clamping drainage group (CD group, nâ=â38). In the DR group, postoperative drainage blood was used for autotransfusion. In the CD group, closed drainage was adopted, and the drainage tube was clamped for 2 h postoperatively followed by patency. The postoperative drainage amount, hemoglobin level, rate and average volume of allogeneic blood transfusion, swelling and ecchymosis of the affected knee joint, time to straight-leg raising and range of active knee flexion were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: The total drainage volume was higher in the DR group than in the CD group (Pâ=â0.000). The average volume of postoperative allogeneic blood transfusion (Pâ=â0.000) and the decrease in the hemoglobin level 24 h after total knee arthroplasty (Pâ=â0.012) were lower in the DR group than in the CD group. Swelling and ecchymosis of the affected knee joint, time to straight-leg raising and the range of active knee flexion were improved in the DR group compared with the CD group (all P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Compared with temporary clamping drainage, drainage blood reinfusion after total knee arthroplasty can reduce the allogeneic blood transfusion volume and is conducive to early rehabilitation in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

The purpose of this study was to radiographically analyze the effect of autologous platelet rich plasma (PRP) on the healing of fresh frozen bone allograft (FFBA) placed in surgically created resection defects in mandibles of dogs. Bilateral resection defects measuring 1.5 cm × 1 cm were surgically created on the inferior border of the mandible in 10 adult male dogs. The defects were randomly divided into three groups: C, FFBA, and FFBA/PRP. In Group C, the defect was filled by blood clot only. In Group FFBA, the defect was filled with particulate fresh frozen bone allograft. In Group FFBA/PRP, it was filled with particulate fresh frozen bone allograft combined with PRP. At 90 days postoperative, standardized radiographs of the mandibles were obtained and results were quantitatively evaluated. Analysis of digitized radiographs indicated that non-PRP grafts were significantly less dense than the PRP grafts. Group FFBA/PRP also presented a statistically greater mineralized tissue area than Groups C and FFBA. Within the limits of this study, it can be concluded that PRP enhanced the healing of FFBA in resection defects in mandibles of dogs.

The objective is to reinforce the importance of blood reinfusion as a cheap, safe and simple method, which can be used in small hospitals, especially those in which there is no blood bank. Moreover, even with the use of devices that perform the collection and filtration of blood, more recent studies show that the cost-benefit ratio is much better when autologous transfusion is compared with blood transfusions, even when there is injury to hollow viscera and blood contamination. It is known that the allogeneic blood transfusion carries a number of risks to patients, among them are the coagulation disorders mediated by excess enzymes in the conserved blood, and deficiency in clotting factors, mainly the Factor V, the proacelerin. Another factor would be the risk of contamination with still unknown pathogens or that are not investigated during screening for selection of donors, such as the West Nile Fever and Creutzfeldt-Jacob, better known as "Mad Cow" disease. Comparing both methods, we conclude that blood autotransfusion has numerous advantages over heterologous transfusion, even in large hospitals. We are not against blood transfusions, just do not agree that the patient's own blood is discarded without making sure there will be enough blood in stock to get him out of the hemorrhagic shock.

O objetivo deste trabalho é reforçar a importância da reinfusão sanguínea como um método barato, seguro e simples, e que pode ser utilizado em hospitais de pequeno porte, destacando aqueles que não dispõem de banco de sangue. Além disso, mesmo com a utilização de aparelhos que realizam a coleta e filtração do sangue, trabalhos mais recentes mostram que a relação custo-benefício é bem melhor, comparando a transfusão autóloga com a transfusão de hemoderivados, mesmo quando há lesão de vísceras ocas e contaminação do sangue. Sabe-se que, atualmente, a transfusão de sangue alogênico acarreta uma série de riscos aos pacientes, dentre eles, estão os distúrbios de coagulação mediados pelo excesso de enzimas no sangue, conservada e deficiência nos fatores de coagulação; destacando o Fator V, a proacelerina. Outro fator seria o risco de contaminação com patógenos ainda desconhecidos ou que não são investigados durante a triagem para seleção de doadores, como por exemplo, a Febre do Nilo Ocidental e a Doença de Creutzfeldt-Jacob, mais conhecida como Doença da "Vaca Louca". Comparando ambos os métodos, concluímos que a autotransfusão sanguínea possui inúmeras vantagens em relação à transfusão heteróloga, mesmo em hospitais de grande porte. Não somos contra a transfusão de hemoderivados, só não concordamos que seja desprezado o sangue do próprio paciente, sem termos certeza de que vai chegar sangue em quantidade suficiente para tirá-lo do choque hemorrágico.

INTRODUCTION: Retrograde autologous priming (RAP) is a cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) method, at low cost. Previous studies have shown that this method reduces hemodilution and blood transfusions needs through increased intra-operative hematocrit. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate RAP method, in relation to standard CPB (crystalloid priming), in adult patients. METHODS: Sixty-two patients were randomly allocated to two groups: 1) Group RAP (n = 27) of patients operated using the RAP and; 2) Control group of patients operated using CPB standard crystalloid method (n = 35). The RAP was performed by draining crystalloid prime from the arterial and venous lines, before CPB, into a collect recycling bag. The main parameters analyzed were: 1) CPB hemodynamic data; 2) Hematocrit and hemoglobin values; 3) The need for blood transfusions. RESULTS: It was observed statistically significant fewer transfusions during surgery and reduced CPB hemodilution using RAP. The CPB hemodynamic values were similar, observing a tendency to use lower CPB flows in the RAP group patients. CONCLUSION: This investigation was designed to be a small-scale pilot study to evaluate the effects of RAP, which were demonstrated concerning the CPB hemodilution and blood transfusions.
INTRODUÇÃO: Perfusato autólogo retrógrado (PAR) é uma técnica de circulação extracorpórea (CEC) com baixos custos. Estudos anteriores demonstraram que esta técnica reduz a hemodiluição e a necessidade de transfusões de sangue por meio do aumento do hematócrito intraoperatório. OBJETIVO: Avaliar técnica de PAR em relação à CEC técnica padrão (perfusato cristaloide) em pacientes adultos. MÉTODOS: Sessenta e dois pacientes foram aleatoriamente alocados em dois grupos: 1) Grupo PAR (n = 27), constituído por pacientes operados utilizando a técnica de PAR e; 2) Grupo Controle, constituído por pacientes operados utilizando técnica padrão de CEC com cristaloides (n = 35). A PAR foi realizada drenando-se o perfusato cristaloide das linhas arterial e venosa, antes da CEC, para uma bolsa coletora de recirculação. Os principais parâmetros analisados foram: 1) parâmetros hemodinâmicos da CEC; 2) valores de hematócrito e hemoglobina; e; 3) necessidade de transfusões de sangue. RESULTADOS: Observaram-se diferenças estatisticamente significativas de transfusão no intraoperatório e diminuição da hemodiluição em CEC utilizando PAR. Os valores hemodinâmicos durante a CEC foram semelhantes, observando-se tendência de utilização de fluxos menores na CEC dos pacientes do grupo PAR. CONCLUSÃO: O presente estudo foi projetado em pequena escala para avaliar os efeitos do PAR, o que foi demonstrado em relação aos já conhecidos efeitos na diminuição da hemodiluição em CEC e transfusão sanguínea, porém não mostrou vantagens hemodinâmicas em relação à técnica padrão com perfusato cristaloide.

INTRODUCTION: Retrograde autologous priming (RAP) is a cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) method, at low cost. Previous studies have shown that this method reduces hemodilution and blood transfusions needs through increased intra-operative hematocrit. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate RAP method, in relation to standard CPB (crystalloid priming), in adult patients. METHODS: Sixty-two patients were randomly allocated to two groups: 1) Group RAP (n = 27) of patients operated using the RAP and; 2) Control group of patients operated using CPB standard crystalloid method (n = 35). The RAP was performed by draining crystalloid prime from the arterial and venous lines, before CPB, into a collect recycling bag. The main parameters analyzed were: 1) CPB hemodynamic data; 2) Hematocrit and hemoglobin values; 3) The need for blood transfusions. RESULTS: It was observed statistically significant fewer transfusions during surgery and reduced CPB hemodilution using RAP. The CPB hemodynamic values were similar, observing a tendency to use lower CPB flows in the RAP group patients. CONCLUSION: This investigation was designed to be a small-scale pilot study to evaluate the effects of RAP, which were demonstrated concerning the CPB hemodilution and blood transfusions.
