“…However, if cardiac bypass was used, additional disturbance of the coagulation system, such as platelet dysfunction, excessive fibrinolysis and consumption of coagulation factors, might aggravate dilution following administration of the priming volume [40]. Thus, coagulation testing and management should be adapted to the type of surgery.…”

Perioperative dilutional coagulopathy is a major coagulation disorder during adult and pediatric surgery. Although the main underlying mechanisms are comparable, data of the development and management of dilutional coagulopathy in children are scarce. Observational data showed that intraoperative coagulation disorders mainly based on complex disturbances of clot firmness including acquired fibrinogen as well as factor XIII deficiencies, while clotting time and platelet counts remained fairly stable. A fast and reliable monitoring of the entire coagulation process (e.g. thrombelastometry) might be of extreme value for detection and guidance of effective coagulation management. Although the transfusion of fresh frozen plasma was recommended in several guidelines, the use of coagulation factors might offer an alternative and potentially superior approach in managing perioperative coagulation disorders. Further studies are urgently needed to determine the efficacy of modern coagulation management.

“…Naguib et al assessed the use of ANH as part of a comprehensive strategy to minimize blood transfusion, but not as an isolated technique . In a prospective RCT, Friesen et al collected 15 mL/kg of fresh autologous whole blood prior to heparin administration, using a normovolemic technique, from children weighing 5‐12 kg undergoing CPB . They hypothesized that retransfusion of the autologous blood after CPB would result in an improved coagulation status in study patients.…”

The use of autologous intraoperative blood collection and retransfusion is a feasible option for small children with complex congenital heart defects undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass. Study patients received significantly fewer donor exposures without an increase in postoperative bleeding. Children who require multiple cardiac surgeries or eventually transplantation could benefit from this blood conservation technique.
