NCT01448343

Brief Summary

Rapid infusion of red blood cells is known to result in the increase of plasma potassium. The researchers are trying to investigate the change in plasma potassium during rapid infusion of mixed blood components in the reservoir of the fluid management system (FMS) in liver transplant recipients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Plasma potassium

    Four units of RBC, four units of FFP and 800 ml of normal saline are put into the FMS reservoir. Samplings of blood are made before, during and after the transfusion of 300 ml of blood mixture. Sites of blood samplings are the infusion line of the FMS and the arterial and central venous lines of the patient. This process is repeated 4 times in a patient. Acquired blood samples are immediately analyzed with a point of care test device (GEM Premier 3000). The result will be analyzed with appropriate statistics such as RMANOVA.

    Transfusion and sampling of blood are made intraoperatively, mainly during the period of hepatectomy. Overall time of data collection is usually within 4 hrs.

Study Arms (1)

FMS

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients who received blood transfusion using FMS

Device: Fluid management system 2000 (FMS)

Interventions

The FMS has an integrated large volume (about 3000 ml) reservoir and delivers a blood mixture (4 unit RBC, 4 unit FFP and 800 ml normal saline) put in the reservoir at a maximum rate of 750 ml/min.
