The present study uses three techniques of autotransfusion in heart surgery under ECC: peroperative and post-ECC transfusion of blood removed after induction of anaesthesia (group I: 25 patients); postoperative transfusion of extravasated thoracic blood (group II: 24 patients) and a combination of the two (group III: 25 patients). Postoperative bleeding was comparable in all groups; A subset likely to haemorrhage made up of patients who had lost more than one litre of blood was isolated and demonstrated a reduction in the number of homologous red cell concentrates needed for the autotransfused population in comparison with the controls (2.4 +/- 2.6 vs 5.7 +/- 3.5 red cell concentrates, p less than 0.05) and was particularly marked in Group II patients who received 1.9 +/- 2.2 homologous red cell concentrates. None of the techniques caused any side-effects. Combination of the two autotransfusion techniques in heart surgery does not secure any additional advantages compared with postoperative autotransfusion alone.
