Background: Metastatic spine tumor surgery (MSTS) is often complex and extensive leading to significant blood loss. Allogeneic blood transfusion (ABT) is the mainstay of blood replenishment but with immune-mediated postoperative complications. Alternative blood management techniques (salvaged blood transfusion [SBT]) allow us to overcome such complications.

Cell salvage (CS) is a tool where autologous blood lost during surgery is collected and recycled with anticoagulation, centrifugation to separate red blood cells, and washing to be reinfused back to the patient. The purpose of this study was to investigate our experience with CS in pelvic and acetabular surgery and its relationship to perioperative transfusion requirements.

Background: The use of cell salvage and autologous blood transfusion is an important and widespread method of blood conservation during surgeries with expected high blood loss. The continuous autotransfusion device CATSmart (Fresenius Kabi, Germany) contains two new washing programs on the device called Flex wash 3 and Flex wash 5. To the best of our knowledge, there are no published clinical data regarding the performance of the two new washing programs.

Article Synopsis
- The study examines the occurrence and factors influencing hidden blood loss during surgery in elderly patients with hip fractures.
- Out of 145 patients analyzed, 42 experienced occult blood loss, resulting in an incidence rate of about 29%.
- Key factors linked to this blood loss include the type of surgical procedure, anesthesia used, drainage post-surgery, and autologous blood transfusion practices, indicating the need for preventive strategies in clinical settings.
RECENT TRENDS IN THE USE OF CELL SALVAGER FOR ORTHOPAEDIC TRAUMA AND ELECTIVE SURGERIES-A NARRATIVE REVIEW.

Intraoperative blood loss management is a critical concern in orthopaedic surgeries, particularly in trauma and complex elective procedures. Traditionally, allogeneic blood transfusions have been used to manage significant blood loss, but they carry risks such as transfusion reactions, infections, and increased healthcare costs. Cell salvage, or autotransfusion, offers a safer alternative by collecting, processing, and reinfusing the patient's own blood during surgery.
