Blood transfusions in surgery: when needed and risk mitigation
The success of a knee joint replacement procedure depends on the availability of a safe backup blood supply. It is preferable to rely on autologous blood transfusion or pre-stored units of the patient's own blood in a blood bank, to minimize risks associated with blood transfusion, such as the transmission of HIV or hepatitis viruses. The need for blood transfusion during the operation can be avoided by using medications that reduce blood loss, utilizing the blood lost through filtration and recycling, and employing alternative fluids to maintain the body's fluid balance. Red blood cells or platelets are administered as needed, with the aim of reducing infection risks and ensuring the patient's safety.
