pubmed:abstractText |
Receiving an allogeneic transfusion may be an independent predictor of mortality for patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Furthermore, these patients utilize 15% of all donated blood in the UK. In our unit, 80% of patients undergoing complex non-coronary cardiac surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) receive an allogeneic transfusion. Activated recombinant FVII (rFVIIa) may be effective in reducing this need for transfusion.
