Abstract
Purpose: To determine free hemoglobin concentration in patients who received massive blood transfusion during emergency surgery for trauma with consideration of the storage of the transfused blood. Methods: Fifteen patients undergoing emergency surgery for multiple trauma and who received blood transfusion of more than 5,000 mL were studied. Transfusion of the stored whole blood in citrate-phosphate glucose solution using a micropore filter was started before surgery. Serum concentrations of hemoglobin (total: THb and free:fHb) and total haptoglobin (THp) were measured until 5,000 mL of blood had been transfused. Serum free haptoglobin (fHp) concentration was calculated. The correlation between the changes in hemoglobin or haptoglobin concentrations and total storage days of the transfused blood was analyzed by a simple regression analysis. Results: Free hemoglobin was detected after 2,000 mL transfusion. The THp and fHp decreased after 1,000 mL transfusion. Total storage time (days) of transfused blood had correlated with the changes of THp (PP=0.0027) but not with the changes of THb (P=0.984) and fHb (P=0.834). Conclusion: After blood transfusion during surgery for trauma, serum haptoglobin concentration decreased with transfusion of ≥1,000 mL of whole blood with mean storage time of 12.2 dy. Free hemoglobin was detected after 2,000 mL transfusion when THp decreased to 1,000 mg·L−1. Serum haptoglobin concentrations correlated negatively with storage time (days) of transfused blood. Objectif: Déterminer la concentration d’hémoglobine libre chez des patients qui reçoivent une transfusion sanguine massive, pendant une opération urgente pour trauma, en considérant le temps de conservation du sang transfusé. Méthode: L’étude a porté sur 15 patients polytraumatisés, opérés d’urgence, qui ont reçu une transfusion de plus de 5 000 mL de sang. Avant l’intervention, on a commencé la transfusion de sang complet, conservé dans une solution de glucose citrate-phosphate, en utilisant un filtre micropore. Les concentrations sériques d’hémoglobine (totale: HbT et libre: Hbl) et d’haptoglobine totale (HpT) ont été mesurées jusqu’à ce que 5 000 mL de sang aient été transfusés. On a aussi noté l’haptoglobine sérique libre (Hpl). la corrélation entre les changements de concentrations d’hémoglobine ou d’aptoglobine et le nombre de jours de conservation du sang transfusé a été analysée par une analyse de régression simple. Résultats: L’hémoglobine libre a été détectée après 2 000 mL de transfusion. L’HpT et l’Hpl ont baissé après 1 000 mL de transfusion. Le temps total de conservation (jours) du sang transfusé était en corrélation avec les modifications d’HpT (PP=0,0027), mais non avec les changements d’HbT (P=0,984) ni d’Hbl (P=0,834). Conclusion: Après la transfusion de sang pendant une opération pour trauma, la concentration sérique d’haptoglobine décroît avec une quantité ≥1 000 mL de sang complet transfusé et selon un temps moyen de conservation de 12,2 jours. L’hémoglobine libre est détectée après la transfusion de 2 000 mL tandis que l’Hp T baisse à 1 000 mg·L−1. Les concentrations sériques d’haptoglobine sont en corrélation négative avec le temps de conservation du sang transfusé.Keywords
