Low Hct and Adverse Outcome
Lowest CPB HCT of <14% in low risk patients and <17% in high risk patients associated with doubling of mortality risk (Fang WC, Circulation 1997)
Below 23%, CPB HCT is inversely related to mortality (Defoe GR, Ann Thorac Surg 2001)
In postop cardiac surgical pts, inverse relationship exists between hemoglobin and major morbidity (Hardy JF, Br J Anaesth 1998)
Perioperative vital organ dysfunction, short- and intermediate-term mortality increased with lowest HCT <22% (Habib RH, J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2003)
![Page 16: Surgical Bleeding and Transfusions: The Issues in 2004](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051020/56815ce9550346895dcaf17a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Blood transfusion in Elderly Patients with Acute Myocardial
InfarctionWu WC et al, NEJM 2001;345:1230-36
Cooperative Cardiovascular Project– 234,769 total patients 78,974 (33.6%) included– CMS ICD-9 discharge code for MI and anemia– Anemia – WHO definition Hct of 39% or less– Hct in the first 24 hrs– 30 day mortality
3324 (4.2%) had Hct less than 30%– These patients had more trauma, surgery,
internal bleeding, coexisting diseases, DNR, shock and less treatments (β blockers ASA etc.)
3680 (4.7%) of the cohort received transfusions
![Page 17: Surgical Bleeding and Transfusions: The Issues in 2004](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051020/56815ce9550346895dcaf17a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Low Hct and Adverse Outcome

transfusion or preoperative hematocrit Lowest HCT groups were transfused at a
significantly higher rate Prospective, randomized trial results

Immune modulationAllogeneic transfusion may enhance tumor recurrence
following colorectal cancer resection (Heiss MM, J Clin Oncol 1994)
Allogeneic transfusion is associated with prolonged hospital LOS (Vamvakas EC, Transfusion 2000)
Allogeneic transfusion is associated with increased risk of bacterial infection (35%) and pneumonia (52%) (Carson JL, Transfusion 1999)
Length of storage of transfused RBCs was associated with postoperative pneumonia following CABG surgery, 5% per unit (Vamvakas EC, Transfusion 1999)

Transfusion and Outcome
• Retrospective, database study of long-term outcome in 1,915 patients after primary CABG
• Excluded for death within 30 days of surgery• 546 patients transfused during hospitalization
were matched by propensity score (age, gender, size, LOS, perfusion time and STS risk) with patients not transfused and 5-year mortality compared
• 5-year mortality twice as high in transfused patients
• After correction for comorbidity, 5-year mortality remained 70%higher in transfused group (p<0.001)
