HEMOLYSIS OF AUTOLOGOUS STORED BLOOD IN ULTRAFILTRATED CARDIOPULMONARY BYPASS WITHOUT DONOR BLOOD

Abstract

Plasma free hemoglobin were measured by means of ELISA method in 15 adult patients autologous stored blood(ASB) during cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB). Plasma hemoglobin value of ASB was 12.2±9.3mg/dl and plasama haptoglobin was 30.5±32.7mg/dl. After completion of CPB, we returned all ASB and perfustates of CPB. Plasma hemoglobin value was 61.3±31.3mg/dl, plasa ma haptoglobin was 17.6±19.6mg/dl, and plasma free hemoglobin was 38.1±13.3mg/dl. From these results, we concluded our ASB had no problem for hemolysis during CPB.
