Abstract
PURPOSE The reduced effects of allogeneic transfusion with acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) have been reported. Harvesting a large volume of blood may maximize the effect in patients with low body weight, and the prevention of hypotension is important. Remimazolam is an anesthetic with few circulatory responses. Our aim was to evaluate whether high-volume ANH reduces the need for transfusion in cardiac patients under remimazolam anesthesia. METHODS In this retrospective single-center study, we enrolled cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) patients who received remimazolam anesthesia. Changes in hemodynamic parameters were assessed. The numbers of blood transfusions and chest tube outputs were also evaluated. RESULTS In a total of 51 patients, ANH was performed in 27 patients with a mean body mass index of 23.2 (ANH volume: 740 ± 222 mL). No significant differences were observed in mean blood pressure during blood collection. The intraoperative amount of red blood cell (RBC) transfusion was significantly lower in the ANH group than in the control group (431 ± 678 and 1260 ± 572 mL, p < 0.001). The avoidance rates of RBC were 66.7 and 4.2%, respectively. The multivariate analysis result revealed that ANH correlated with RBC, with an odds ratio of 0.067 (95% confidence interval 0.005-0.84, p < 0.05). The postoperative bleeding at 24 h was significantly lower in the ANH group (455 ± 228 and 797 ± 535 mL, p < 0.01). CONCLUSION In patients undergoing CPB, ANH reduced intraoperative transfusion amount and postoperative bleeding. Hemodynamic changes during blood collection were minimal under remimazolam anesthesia and high-volume ANH was feasible.

Abstract
Intra-operative autologous blood donation is a blood conservation technique with limited evidence. We evaluated the association between intra-operative autologous blood donation and decrease in peri-operative transfusion in cardiovascular surgery based on evidence from a Japanese administrative database. We extracted the data of patients who had undergone cardiovascular surgery from the Diagnosis Procedure Combination database in Japan (2016–2019). Based on the surgery type, we examined the association of intra-operative autologous blood donation with the transfusion rate and amount of blood used in cardiac and aortic surgeries using multilevel propensity score matching. We enrolled 32,433 and 4,267 patients who underwent cardiac and aortic surgeries and received 5.0% and 6.7% intra-operative autologous blood donation with mean volumes of 557.68 mL and 616.96 mL, respectively. The red blood cell transfusion rates of the control and intra-operative autologous blood donation groups were 60.6% and 38.4%, respectively, in the cardiac surgery cohort (p < .001) and 91.4%, and 83.8%, respectively, in the aortic surgery cohort (p = .037). The transfusion amounts for the control and intra-operative autologous blood donation groups were 5.9 and 3.5 units of red blood cells, respectively, for cardiac surgery patients (p < .001) and 11.9 and 7.9 units, respectively, for aortic surgery patients (p < .001). Intra-operative autologous blood donation could reduce the transfusion rate or amount of red blood cells and fresh frozen plasma for patients undergoing index cardiovascular surgery and could be an effective blood transfusion strategy in cardiovascular surgery for Japanese patients.

Extracellular Vesicles in Autologous Cell Salvaged Blood in Orthopedic Surgery. SURGERIES 2021.

Abstract
(1) Background: Cell salvage is highly recommended in orthopedic surgery to avoid allogeneic transfusions. Preparational steps during cell salvage may induce extracellular vesicle (EV) formation with potential thrombogenic activity. The purpose of our study was to assess the appearance of EVs at retransfusion. (2) Methods: After ethics committee approval and informed consent, blood was withdrawn from the autotransfusion system (Xtra, Sorin, Germany) of 23 patients undergoing joint arthroplasty. EVs were assessed by flow cytometry in two times centrifugated samples. EVs were stained with specific antibodies against cellular origins from platelets (CD41), myeloid cells (CD15), monocytes (CD14), and erythrocytes (CD235a). The measured events/µL in the flow cytometer were corrected to the number of EVs in the retransfusate. (3) Results: We measured low event rates of EVs from platelets and myeloid origin (<1 event/µL) and from monocytic origin (<2 events/µL). Mean event rates of 17,042 events/µL (range 12–81,164 events/µL) were found for EVs from red blood cells. (4) Conclusion: Retransfusate contains negligible amounts of potentially thrombogenic EVs from platelet and monocytic origin. Frequent EVs from erythrocytes may indicate red blood cell destruction and/or activation during autologous cell salvage. Further research is needed to investigate the clinical relevance of EVs from salvaged red blood cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has gained growing popularity in use in spinal fusion procedures in the last decade. Substantial intraoperative blood loss is frequently accompanied with spinal fusion, and it is unknown whether blood harvested intraoperatively qualifies for PRP preparation. MATERIAL AND METHODS Whole blood was harvested intraoperatively and venous blood was collected by venipuncture. Then, we investigated the platelet concentrations in whole blood and PRP, the concentration of growth factors in PRP, and the effects of PRP on the proliferation and viability of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (HBMSCs). RESULTS Our results revealed that intraoperatively harvested whole blood and whole blood collected by venipuncture were similar in platelet concentration. In addition, PRP formulations prepared from both kinds of whole blood were similar in concentration of platelet and growth factors. Additional analysis showed that the similar concentrations of growth factors resulted from the similar platelet concentrations of whole blood and PRP between the two groups. Moreover, these two kinds of PRP formulations had similar effects on promoting cell proliferation and enhancing cell viability. CONCLUSIONS Therefore, intraoperatively harvested whole blood may be a potential option for preparing PRP spinal fusion.

Abstract
Microvesicles are members of the family of extracellular vesicles shed from the plasma membrane of activated or apoptotic cells. Microvesicles were initially characterised by their pro-coagulant activity and described as "microparticles". There is mounting evidence revealing a role for microvesicles in intercellular communication, with particular relevance to hemostasis and vascular biology. Coupled with this, the potential of microvesicles as meaningful biomarkers is under intense investigation. This Position Paper will summarise the current knowledge on the mechanisms of formation and composition of microvesicles of endothelial, platelet, red blood cell and leukocyte origin. This paper will also review and discuss the different methods used for their analysis and quantification, will underline the potential biological roles of these vesicles with respect to vascular homeostasis and thrombosis and define important themes for future research.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine if thromboelastography (TEG) is predictive of patient outcomes following traumatic injury. METHODS A retrospective review of 131 patients with pelvic trauma admitted to a Level II trauma center was conducted over four years from 1 January 2009 to 31 December 2012. Patients were identified retrospectively from a prospectively collected database of acute pelvic trauma (n = 372). Eligible patients were identified from billing/coding data as having fractures of the acetabulum, iliac wing or sacral alae. Patients with incomplete TEG data were excluded (n = 241), as were patients with pathological fractures. TEG clotting variables and traditional clotting variables were recorded. RESULTS Evaluation of TEG data revealed 41 patients with abnormal clotting times (TEG R). TEG R > 6 was an independent risk factor for death (OR, 16; 95%CI 5.4-53; P = 0.0001). The death rate was 52% in patients with TEG R values ≥6 (n = 13/25). There was no significant association between traditional clotting markers and death rate. CONCLUSIONS TEG reaction time value, representing the time of initial clot formation, was the only hematologic marker predictive of mortality in patients with pelvic trauma. Delay in reaction time was associated with a significantly increased death rate, independent of injury severity. The death rate association was not observed with traditional markers of clotting. Future prospective studies may be warranted to determine the presentation and significance of TEG abnormalities when resuscitating patients with orthopaedic trauma.

Abstract
The viscoelastic properties of blood clot have been studied most commonly using thrombelastography (TEG) and thromboelastometry (ROTEM). ROTEM-based bleeding treatment algorithms recommend administering platelets to patients with low EXTEM clot strength (e.g., clot amplitude at 10 minutes [A10] <40 mm) once clot strength of the ROTEM® fibrin-based test (FIBTEM) is corrected. Algorithms based on TEG typically use a low value of maximum amplitude (e.g., <50 mm) as a trigger for administering platelets. However, this parameter reflects the contributions of various blood components to the clot, including platelets and fibrin/fibrinogen. The platelet component of clot strength may provide a more sensitive indication of platelet deficiency than clot amplitude from a whole blood TEG or ROTEM® assay. The platelet component of the formed clot is derived from the results of TEG/ROTEM® tests performed with and without platelet inhibition. In this article, we review the basis for why this calculation should be based on clot elasticity (e.g., the E parameter with TEG and the CE parameter with ROTEM®) as opposed to clot amplitude (e.g., the A parameter with TEG or ROTEM®). This is because clot elasticity, unlike clot amplitude, reflects the force with which the blood clot resists rotation within the device, and the relationship between clot amplitude (variable X) and clot elasticity (variable Y) is nonlinear. A specific increment of X (ΔX) will be associated with different increments of Y (ΔY), depending on the initial value of X. When calculated correctly, using clot elasticity data, the platelet component of the clot can provide a valuable insight into platelet deficiency in emergency bleeding.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Knee arthroplasty causes significant blood loss. Different blood-saving measures exist like retransfusion of unwashed salvaged blood. Some studies question the quality of this blood and in particular its ability to clot. These studies use "static" coagulation tests reflecting only partially the reality, unlike viscoelastic methods. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the salvaged blood thromboelastometric profile using ROTEM® system and to compare these results with patient venous blood. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed an observational, prospective, single-center study conducted over 3 months in 2013. Agreement of local ethical committee and patient consent were obtained beforehand. All adult patients who underwent a primary total knee arthroplasty were included. A thromboelastometric profile and standard laboratory tests (hemoglobin, platelets count, PT, aPTT, fibrinogen) were performed in the same time on patient venous blood and on unwashed salvaged blood in the PACU. RESULTS Twenty patients were included. The median duration of surgery was 93 minutes. Thirteen patients (65%) received tranexamic acid during procedure. The median volume of shed blood was 225 mL. Two patients (10%) received a reinfusion. Analysis of shed blood showed a major deficiency of clotting factor in standard biology (PT<10%) and an absence of clot formation in thromboelastometric test (In-tem®, Ex-tem®, Fib-tem® or Ap-tem®). Compared to venous blood, shed blood had significantly lower hemoglobin levels: 8.8 vs 13.5 g/dL (P<0.0001). Allogenic transfusion concerned 5% of patients. DISCUSSION In this work, we confirmed that shed blood was naturally uncoagulable probably due to a multifactorial mechanism involving a major clot factor deficiency and an activation of fibrinolysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraoperative blood salvage and processing it with commercially available devices is a widespread standard procedure to reduce allogeneic blood transfusion in patients undergoing major orthopedic surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of such processed blood on the immune system by measuring pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Salvaged blood from 20 patients undergoing hip arthroplasty was processed with a continuous autotransfusion system. One part of the processed blood was left without further treatment, one part was additionally leukoreduced, one part was irradiated, and one part was separated into its cellular and soluble fraction by centrifugation. Specimens from each part were mixed in vitro with venous blood from the patient in ratios of 3:1, 1:1, and 1:3 and incubated with endotoxin for 24 hours. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-10 were measured in cell culture supernatants by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS All parts of the salvaged blood were without a significant influence on TNF-α release. In contrast, IL-10 was significantly increased, independently of the admixtured salvaged blood being plain, additionally irradiated, or additionally leukoreduced. This IL-10 increase was also found with the cellular fraction of the plain salvaged blood, whereas the soluble fraction had no influence on IL-10 release. CONCLUSION Intraoperative salvaged blood is not immunologically inert. We observed a significant increase in the anti-inflammatory IL-10 response without affecting the proinflammatory TNF-α release. Neither leukofiltration nor gamma irradiation eliminated this effect that was limited only to the cellular fraction of the salvaged blood, suggesting red blood cells to be responsible for the observed immunomodulation.

Abstract
Patient Blood Management (PBM) describes an evidence-based, multidisciplinary therapeutic approach. Its focus is on the treatment of the individual patient and as such comprises transfusion therapy and pharmacotherapy. Furthermore, the applicability of PBM is not limited to the perioperative setting but is applicable also to other therapeutic measures and disciplines where significant blood loss is known to occur and where transfusion of blood products is part of the established treatment. PBM is fundamentally based on 3 pillars: (1) optimization of the (preoperative) erythrocyte volume, (2) reduction of diagnostic, therapeutic, or intraoperative blood loss, and (3) increasing individual tolerance towards anemia and accurate blood transfusion triggers. PBM primarily identifies patients at risk of transfusion and provides a management plan aimed at reducing or eliminating the risk of anemia and the need for allogeneic transfusion, thus reducing the inherent risks, inventory pressures, and the escalating costs associated with transfusion.

Abstract
Cell-derived microparticles are complex vesicular structures that can be shedded by activated or apoptotic endothelial cells. Cell-derived microparticles are composed of a phospholipid bilayer that exposes transmembrane proteins and receptors and encloses cytosolic components such as enzymes, transcription factors and mRNA derived from their parent cells. Thus, they behave as biological conveyors playing a key role in the tuning of vascular homeostasis. This review will address the potential of microparticles as efficient vectors of biological activities in pathologies. Based on the model of endothelial vesiculation, the first part of this review will develop the contribution of endothelial microparticles to coagulation inflammation and angiogenesis and their role in vascular disorders. The second part will be focused on the multifaceted impact of cell-derived microparticles present in blood products and its relevance to transfusion medicine.
