Impact of Acute Normovolemic Hemodilution on Blood Viscosity
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) has long been employed for reducing allogenic blood transfusion for cardiac surgery, and hydroxyethyl starch has been used as an intravenous replacement fluid during ANH procedure. However, possible impact of ANH employing HES on blood viscosity and oxygen delivery have not been well investigated in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) surgery .
Anesthesia is induced and maintained by using propofol-remifentanil-rocuronium in OPCAB surgery (n=21). ANH is performed by using 5 ml/kg of blood salvage and administering 5 ml/kg of balanced HES 130/0.42 (Tetraspan™) for 15 min during vascular graft harvesting. For the present study, three arterial blood samples (3 ml each) are taken before (Sample 1) and after ANH (sample 2 and 3) and they are stored in 3 tubes. Sample 3 (in tube) undergoes further 30% in-vitro dilution by adding 1-1.5 ml HES. By using a scanning capillary tube viscometer (Hemovister™), Blood viscosity at low shear rate (5/sec) of the three samples are determined. By using a formula with blood viscosity and hematocrit, tissue O2 delivery index (TODI, = hematocrit/viscosity at 5/sec) is calculated.

Experimental: Acute normovolemic hemodilution acute normovolemic hemodilution by using hydroxyethyl starch |
Procedure: acute normovolemic hemodilution
acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) is performed by using 5 ml/kg of blood salvage and intravenously administering 5 ml/kg of balanced hydroxyethystarch 130/0.42 (Tetraspan™) for 15 min
Procedure: In-vitro hemodilution
Blood sample after ANH 5 ml/kg undergoes further 30% in-vitro dilution by adding 1-1.5 ml hydroxyethystarch 130/0.42
|
Experimental: In-vitro hemodilution adding additional hydroxyethyl starch for achieving further 30% dilution of whole blood sample which already underwent ANH of 4-6 ml/kg. |
Procedure: In-vitro hemodilution
Blood sample after ANH 5 ml/kg undergoes further 30% in-vitro dilution by adding 1-1.5 ml hydroxyethystarch 130/0.42
