About this trial

In this trial, we proposed an individualized acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH), and conduct a randomized controlled trial to testify the effect of individualized ANH on red cells requirement for non-cardiac surgeries with anticipating major blood loss in adults.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients undergoing elective non-cardiac surgery with an anticipated red blood cells transfusion >8 units (or 1600ml)

Aged 18~75 years

Preoperative Hb level > 120g/L for men and > 110g/L for women.

Disqualifiers

Refusal of blood transfusion

Cardiopulmonary insufficiency

Cerebrovascular disease

Renal impairment

Trial design

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Individualized ANH

    Procedure/Surgery

    Participants will undergo individualized ANH based on the West China Liu's Score after anesthetic induction. The decision of autologous blood transfusion or allogeneic red cell transfusion will be made according to the West China Liu's Score.

Composite of in-hospital complications

The complications will be divided into five grades. Grade Ⅰ, recovery after temporary treatment, e.g., postoperative nausea and vomiting. Grade Ⅱ, prolonged hospitalization, e.g., infection requiring antibiotics treatment. Grade Ⅲ, life threatening complications requiring intense treatment during hospitalization, e.g., postoperative bleeding requiring re-operation, or acute renal insufficiency requiring dialysis therapy. Grade Ⅳ, life threatening complications resulting in significantly decreased quality of life, e.g., myocardial infarction. Grade Ⅴ, all-cause mortality during hospitalization.

Time frame
Up to 12 weeks.
