Why the study?
Does intraoperative unwashed filtered autologous blood transfusion reduce the need for homologous blood transfusion in patients undergoing abdominal aortic reconstruction?
Does intraoperative unwashed filtered autologous blood transfusion reduce the need for homologous blood transfusion in patients undergoing abdominal aortic reconstruction?
Intraoperative unwashed autologous blood transfusion during abdominal aortic reconstruction safely reduces the need for homologous blood transfusion despite transient laboratory abnormalities.
May reduce homologous transfusion needs in aortic reconstruction without serious complications; leaves open need for randomized confirmation.
