Brief Summary

Continuous and noninvasive hemoglobin (SpHb) monitoring provides clinicians with real-time trending of changes or lack of changes in hemoglobin, which has the potential to alter red blood cell (RBC) transfusion decision making. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of SpHb monitoring on RBC transfusions in high blood loss surgery. The investigators hypothesize that SpHb will improve blood transfusion practice in the for of change the number of blood unit per patient and improve the outcome regards the time to take decision of transfusion trigger.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • RBC Transfusions Per Subject Receiving a Transfusion

    Determine whether using SpHb can affect the quantity of RBC transfused, per patient receiving a transfusion.

    During surgery (an average of about 4 hours)

  • The Effect of SpHb on Transfusion Timeline

    Length of time it takes to initiate a RBC transfusion after the need was first established.

    During surgery (an average of about 4 hours)

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • SpHb Absolute and Trend Accuracy

    During surgery (an average of about 4 hours)

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Potential Cost Savings

    During surgery (an average of about 4 hours)

Study Arms (2)

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

Control Group received standard anesthesia care including intraoperative blood sampling when estimated blood loss was ≥15% of total blood volume and transfusion when hemoglobin was ≤10 g/dL.

SpHb Group.

EXPERIMENTAL

Continuous non-invasive hemoglobin monitoring (SpHb monitoring) was provided to the anesthesiologist to influence administration of care

Device: Continuous non-invasive hemoglobin monitoring

Interventions

Anesthesiologist is provided with real-time continuous non-invasive hemoglobin monitoring to influence care provided to patient

Also known as: Masimo Radical-7 with SpHb
SpHb Group.
