About this trial
The goal of this observational study is to learn about endothelial damage in major spine surgery, expressed as rise in circulating Syndecan-1.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* What is the extent of endothelial glycocalyx shedding in major spine surgery? * Are there differences in different type of surgical populations? (adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, adult degenerative spine disease, oncologic surgery)
To do so, blood samples will be drawn from participants at the following timepoints:
* basal * after surgery * if transfusion of Fresh Frozen Plasma: before and after transfusion * Post-Operative Day 1-2-4
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Undergoing Major Spine Surgery with estimated blood loss> 25% of total blood volume

Trial population
This study will take place in patients undergoing major spine surgery. As a secondary analysis, patients will be divided in three major groups: * Adolescent idiopathic * Adult degenerative spine disease * Cancer surgery
