ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effects of preoperative acute hypervolemic hemodilution (AHH) on coagulation and fibrinolysis on the elderly patients undergoing hepatic carcinectomy.Methods Thirty ASA Ⅰ～Ⅱ liver cancer patients over sixty years old undergoing scheduled elective hepatic carcinectomy were random divided into AHH group ( n = 15) and control group ( n = 15).AHH was performed by infusing 15 ～20ml/kg 6% Voluven ( 130/0.4) in a rate of 30ml/min on patients in AHH group,and the patients in control group were infused routinely lactated Ringer's solution.Blood samples were collected for measuring coagulation function and platelet activation before anesthesia (T1) ,30 minutes after AHH (T2),1 hour ( T3 ), immediately (T4) and 24 hours (T5) after operation in group AHH, and the similar procure was used in control group.Results There was significant difference in the volume of allergenic blood transfusions between the two groups(20% vs 53.3%, P ＜0.05).PT and APTT in both groups prolonged significantly after T2, but they all remained in normal range.TT and DD had no significant changes between the two groups.SFMC and F1 + 2 increased in both groups, but it had no significant changes.PAC-1 and CD62P expressions of group AHH were significantly lower T2, T3 ,respectively ( 1.37 ±0.4) %, (1.28 ±0.4) %, than those at T1 [( 1.96 ± 0.6) %] ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Compared with control group, CD62P was significantly lower in AHH group at T2 and T5.Conclusion It is safe to take AHH of Hct 25% to 30% during hepatic carcinectomy for elderly liver cancer patients without cardiac and pulmonary disease.And it could decrease allergenic blood transfusions, with no apparently influence on coagulation function.
