Fibrinolysis factors were examined in 112 patients operated on for coronary heart disease. After artificial circulation was over,auto- logous blood + was collected in a cardiotomic reservoir and reinfused to the patient. The collected autologous blood was characterized by a manifest fibrinolytic potential, but already in 18-20 hrs after transfusion these changes were undetectable; no enhanced bleeding was observed after surgery. Use of autologous blood helps reduce the necessary amounts of donor blood.
