Effectiveness of Intraoperative Cell Salvage in Aseptic Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty.

Effectiveness of Intraoperative Cell Salvage in Aseptic Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty: a Single-center Retrospective Study

Intraoperative cell salvage is an important measure of patient blood management but its effectiveness in patients undergoing revision total hip arthroplasty remains unclear. Over the last decade, we have used intraoperative cell salvage systematically in this group of patients. However, since the use of cell salvage has a cost and requires additional resources, we decided to retrospectively investigate its usefulness in this particular indication.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Use
Patients in whom the cell saver was effectively used
The effective use of the cell saver was defined as the ability to re-transfuse at least 125 mL of re-suspended red blood cells with a hematocrit of 60 %.
Not Use
Patients in whom the cell saver wasn't effectively used
The effective use of the cell saver was defined as the ability to re-transfuse at least 125 mL of re-suspended red blood cells with a hematocrit of 60 %.
