OBJECTIVE: Transfusion is becoming safer but is not free of risk. It is important to establish a good approach to transfusion management and calculate real losses. Risk factors for transfusion should be identified. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This was a prospective study of 102 patients who did not receive intraoperative autotransfusion of shed blood, selected from a group of 127 who were undergoing primary knee arthroplasty. We initially calculated the amount of blood shed. Then, by multivariate logistic regression analysis we identified the model that best predicted that a patient would require transfusion. Receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed and the area under the curves calculated. RESULTS: Mean (SD) blood loss was calculated to be 1786 (710) mL. The best model considered initial hemoglobin (Hb), weight, height, and sex as predictive factors: Probability = 1/ (1+e(-Z)), where Z = 11.542 - 1.074 x initial Hb (g/dL) - 0.039 x Weight (kg) + 0.031 x Height (cm) + 0.267 x (sex: male=1 or female=0). The area under the ROC curve was 0.805 (0.44). CONCLUSION: Initial Hb, which can be modified before surgery, is one of the factors that most affects whether or not the patient will need a transfusion. Therefore, one of our first objectives in the process of managing transfusion is to improve preoperative Hb values.

OBJETIVO: La transfusión cada vez es más segura perono está exenta de riesgos. Es importante tener una buenaestrategia transfusional y calcular las pérdidas reales.Se deben buscar los factores que puedan predecir la probabilidadde que un paciente sea transfundido.MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Estudio prospectivo observacionalagrupando 127 pacientes intervenidos de artroplastiaprimaria de rodilla, seleccionando a los 102pacientes sin autotransfusión preoperatoria. Inicialmentecalculamos las pérdidas producidas en el grupo estudiado.Posteriormente, mediante regresión logística multivariantese combinaron las variables analizadas paraobtener el mejor modelo predictivo de que un pacientesea transfundido. Hemos obtenido las diferentes curvasROC y se ha calculado el área bajo la curva ROC.RESULTADOS: Las pérdidas calculadas fueron 1.786 mL± 710 mL. De todos los modelos predictivos, la asociaciónde la hemoglobina inicial, el peso, la talla y el sexo es laque dio mejor valor predictivo. El modelo es: Probabilidad(p) = 1/ (1+e-Z) en donde Z = 11,542 1,074 x Hgb inicial(g/dl) 0,039 x Peso (Kg) + 0,031 x Talla (cm) + 0,267x (sexo, hombre1/ mujer 0); su área bajo la curva ROC esde 0,805 ± 0,44.CONCLUSIÓN: La hemoglobina inicial, modificablepreoperatoriamente, es uno de los factores que másinfluyen en que un paciente sea transfundido. Por lo tanto,en el algoritmo transfusional uno de nuestros objetivosiniciales es mejorar la hemoglobina preoperatoria
