Objective:
Through researching preoperative coagulation function in the case of ABO-identical blood insufficient for emergency rescue transfusion according to recommended programs of special emergency rescue transfusion was carried out, the relationship between volume of blood products and coagulation function was analyzed.
Methods:
The surgical cases of blood transfusion more than 1 600 ml during operation were collected in our hospitals from Aug 2015 to Dec 2016(n=218), these cases were divided into the normal coagulation group(Group A) and abnormal coagulation group(Group B), and the patients of emergency rescue transfusion O type blood group(Group C). The basic information of cases, the infused volume of red blood cell(RBC), virus-inactivated frozen plasma(VIFP), fresh frozen plasma(FFP), cryoprecipitate(C)and platelets(P), prothrombin time(PT), activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT), fibrinogen(FIB)and international normalized ratio(INR)were analyzed, the relationship between volume of blood transfusion and coagulation function were also analysed. At the same time, the efficiency and safety index were compared before and after transfusion. These indexes, such as hemoglobin(Hb), indirect bilirubin(IBiL), direct antiglobulin test(DAT)and irregular antibody were determined at the time-paints of 24 h, 3 d and 7 d after blood transfusion.
Results:
The differences of age and blood type between group A and B was not statistically significant(P>0.05). Proportion of A and AB type,transfusion volume of RBC, FFP, C and Plt all were significantly higher in group C (P<0.05). PT, APTT, FIB and INR in group B and C were significantly different(P<0.05), which related with the transfusion volume of RBC, FFP and C(P<0.05). DAT and irregular antibody in every group was all negative before transfusion, No any new irregular antibodies had been detected after transfusion. Hb after blood transfusion was not statistically different before and after transfusion in group C, the IBiL level also was not significantly increased after blood transfusion(P > 0.05). All those showed that emergency rescue transfusion was safe and effective.
Conclusion:
Preoperative coagulation function is one of factors inflnencing blood products transfusion volume during operation, which also is the basis for evaluating bleeding and blood transfusion. Emergency O type blood and ABO-matched blood transfusions show the same efficiency and safety.
