Introduction:
Postoperative drain loss can exceed intraoperative blood loss and affect the severity of the patient's condition. Aim: The objective of the study was to find significant predictors of postoperative blood loss in surgery for idiopathic scoliosis.
Materials And Methods:
We analyzed the data of 140 patients with idiopathic scoliosis. One hundred three patients (group 1) un-derwent Smith-Petersen osteotomy as part of the multilevel pedicle screw fixation; 37 patients (group 2) required no spinal osteotomy. Correlation and regression analysis of the data was performed.
Results:
There were significant differences between the groups in the number of fixed segments (p.
