What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Spine surgery for scoliosis correction in pediatric patients is a major procedure associated with a high risk of perioperative blood loss. Homologous blood transfusion carries inherent risks, including immunological reactions, infections, and increased healthcare costs. Identifying high-risk patients is crucial to optimize blood conservation strategies. This retrospective study aims to identify preoperative and intraoperative risk factors associated with homologous red blood cell (RBC) transfusion and to evaluate the quantitative impact of Cell Saver volume reinfusion on reducing homologous transfusion requirements.
