Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • the volume of red blood cell (RBC) used adjusted to body weight

    This is a repeated measurement data. The volume of RBC used adjusted to body weight = the volume of RBC (ml) used/ body weight(Kg). It is repeatedly recorded during this time frame. The data for intraoperation phase, for postoperation phase and for both intraoperation and postoperation phase are analyzed.The data would be measured at baseline (before operation), at the end of operation and on the 3rd days after operation.

    baseline through 3 days after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • hemoglobin (Hb) concentration

    baseline through 3 days after surgery

  • heart rate

    during operation(about 2-6 hours)

  • blood pressure(Systolic)

    during operation (about 2-6 hours)

  • blood pressure(Diastolic)

    during operation (about 2-6 hours)

  • lactate (Lac)

    during operation (about 2-6 hours)

  • +5 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

control group

NO INTERVENTION

The strategies of red blood cell transfusion for the pediatric patients in this group will be made by the attending doctors in charge based on the current transfusion guidelines. The attending doctors decide when to start blood red cell transfusion and order the volume of the blood red cell as the usual clinical practice.

study group

EXPERIMENTAL

For study group, the clinical condition score must be identified every time red blood cell transfusion is considered. The strategies of red blood cell transfusion for the pediatric patients in this group, including the trigger and the volume, will be made based on the comparison between the clinical condition score and the Hb concentration.

Diagnostic Test: clinical condition score

Interventions

A score is firstly identified using a clinical condition scale including the concentration of inspired oxygen to maintain the percutaneous oxygen saturation (SPO2)≧95%, the fusion rate of catecholamine drugs to maintain normal blood pressure, the nasopharyngeal temperature and the oxygen saturation of central venous blood. The score was graded as 0, 1 and 2 points according to the patient's clinical condition. The score identified from the scale plus 7 finally makes the clinical condition score. If the score is higher than 10, it will be replaced with 10. That is to say, the highest clinical condition score is 10. If the clinical condition score≦Hb, blood red cell transfusion will not be started. If the clinical condition score\>Hb, blood red cell transfusion will be started, and the volume will be calculated using the following formulation, transfusion volume(ml)=(clinical condition score - Hb)\*body weight \*5.
