Summary

The purpose of this study is to learn the best method of assigning patients to receive "acute normovolemic hemodilution" during liver surgery.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

nomogram-based selection for acute normovolemic hemodilution

Will use the nomogram to determine whether or not the patient needs ANH during surgery. The nomogram assigns a point value to certain pre-op factors to determine whether or not the patient will need an ANH. Preoperative factors that will be used are platelet count, planned amount of liver to be removed, hemoglobin level, if the surgeon needs to operate on any organ outside of the liver to remove the tumor, and the patients health overall.

PROCEDURE

standard selection for ANH based on a planned resection of 3 or more segments

Will use the planned amount of liver to be removed to determine whether or not the patient needs an ANH during surgery.
