No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients presenting for elective cesarean section will be screened for pre-procedural anemia. If the potential subject meets the selection criteria they will be presented with the option of participating in the study. Once consented the participant is randomized by envelope. The two groups studied are: standard of care with intraoperative cell salvage and standard of care without cell salvage. If the participant is randomized to the cell salvage group, the study team will notify the anesthesia and obstetrics (OB) team and will set up the cell salvage system per protocol. The primary end point is to determine the difference in postoperative hemoglobin at 48hrs, need and quantity of allogeneic blood product transfusion, length of hospital stay between the two groups studied. The secondary endpoints Investigate the impact of using IOCS on clinical parameters associated with maternal postpartum stability and well being and include estimation of blood loss, need for pressors, uterotonics, return to the operating room, uterine compression devices, ICU admission, postoperative blood product transfusion, IV iron supplementation, blood chemistry, coagulation parameters, oliguria, diagnosis of acute kidney injury, postoperative dialysis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, pulmonary edema, pneumonia, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, oxygen requirement, new arrythmias APGAR scores, anemia fatigue scale at 24hr and 48 hrs, OBSQOR10 score 24 hours and 48 hours postpartum and 6 week postpartum EPDS score.

Conditions

  • Peripartum Anemia

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Intraoperative cellular salvage

When the patient is randomized to this intervention the cell salvage machine will be set up for intraoperative use. The surgical team will collect blood from the surgical field into the cell salvage machine, which will process the blood for reinfusion. The volume of blood available for reinfusion is determined by the amount of blood lost which can be collected into the cell salvage system. The blood collected into the salvage system will be collected and processed per standard operating room procedure. At least 100mL of blood collected in the system are necessary for processing. If \>100mLs are collected, they will be processed and reinfused. The need for additional blood products and medications will be determined by the anesthesiology team based on the patient's hemodynamic status and will proceed per standard of care.
