ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:
Cardiovascular surgery (CCV) patients have a high incidence of perioperative anemia and bleeding that determines a high rate of allogeneic blood transfusion (AST). This is associated with an increase in morbidity, mortality and prolongs length of stay in hospital. Unnecessary transfusion is one of the measures to avoid and Patient Blood Management (PBM) programs have proven their effectiveness. Our objective was to reduce the transfusion of patients in cardiac surgery, without inferior results in morbidity and mortality, length of stay in hospital and being cost-effective, through the implementation of a PBM program. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
A mixed cohort study of 226 patients divided into 2 groups retrospective pre-PBM (GP), from 2016, and intervention group (IG), prospective from 2018, with the results of the implementation of the guide.RESULTS:
The clinical results obtained allowed reducing the TSA from 92.59% to 79.69% (P<.001), saving 2.59 units of CH and 2.5 of PFC per patient (P<.001). A decrease was found in patients with fever (12.35% vs 1.56% with P=.006) and the need to escalate antibiotics (64.8% vs 42.19%, P=.002). The rest of postoperative complications and mortality at 3months did not present statistically significant differences. The length of stay was reduced by an average 3.6days in the IG, (95%CI -8.10 to 0.9, P=.18). The cost decreased by 163.29 per patient, taking into account exclusively the saving of blood components.CONCLUSION:
The PBM program is effective in reducing TSA in cardiac surgery in a tertiary hospital with high complexity patients and high transfusion rate. There are signs suggestive of a decrease in infections and a tendency to decrease the length of stay and mortality. In the economic approximation carried out, the cost of the intervention was lower than the savings implied by the decrease in transfusion.Palavras-chave
