    Area of Science:

    • Transfusion Medicine
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Background:

    • Hypothermia is a risk during massive transfusion.
    • Rapid warming of blood products is clinically necessary.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate a new admixture blood warming technique.
    • To assess the speed and efficacy of warming packed red blood cells.

    Main Methods:

    • Mixing 4°C packed red blood cells with 250 mL of 70°C saline.
    • Utilizing an admixture technique for rapid temperature equilibration.

    Main Results:

    • Achieved a final blood temperature of 37°C.
    • Warming process completed in less than 30 seconds.

    Conclusions:

    • The admixture method provides rapid warming of packed red blood cells.
    • This technique offers a fast and effective solution for preparing blood for transfusion.
