Blood loss in surgical oncology: Neglected quality indicator?

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2009
AbstractQuality indicators can be defined as “specific and measurable elements of practice that can be used to assess the quality of care”. Surgical blood loss is one of the most significant perioperative predictors of patient outcome. Blood loss is a modifiable quality indicator for oncologic cancer surgery.

Surgical Blood Loss in Abdominal Hysterectomy

Gynecologic Oncology, 2001
The aim of this study was to evaluate additional error in estimating red cell loss during abdominal hysterectomy.Eighty patients admitted consecutively for abdominal hysterectomy were recruited. The surgeries were done after heparinizing the suction tubing system to prevent clotting and reducing the vacuum pressure to reduce red cell lysis.

BLOOD DETERMINATION AND ESTIMATION OF BLOOD LOSS DURING SURGICAL OPERATIONS

Archives of Surgery, 1948
THE CONDITION of the surgical patient postoperatively depends on several factors, among which are surgical trauma, length of operation, type of anesthesia and loss of blood. The more closely each of these factors can be maintained to normal, the more rapid will be the patient's recovery.

Is postoperative blood loss, loss of blood? A pilot study in cardiac surgical patients

Perfusion, 2001
The effect of estimating the blood balance using changes in erythrocyte volumes (EVs) instead of the routinely used changes in haematocrit values was studied in 20 patients scheduled for cardiac surgery. We determined the mean haematocrit of the effluent from the postoperative thoracic drainage system at various time intervals.

Measurement of blood loss during surgical operations

The American Journal of Surgery, 1951
T HE maintenance of the fluid balance of surgica1 patients is one of the most important responsibilities of the modern surgica1 team, and the proper repIacement of bIood is perhaps one of the most important phases of this maintenance. This is true not only because it is an excellent prophyIactic measure against shock but also because it aids in ...
