Patient Blood Management in Cardiac Surgery
This book provides a multidisciplinary approach to the maintenance of hemostasis and minimisation of blood loss in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. All aspects of patient blood management are covered that may contribute to a reduction in perioperative bleeding and transfusion requirements in cardiac surgery. This is achieved through practical cases and a theoretical background that gives a better understanding of patient hemostasis and the occurrence of bleeding complications.
This book is relevant to cardiac surgeons, anesthesiologists, clinical perfusionists, hematologists and intensivists.
