Researchers from Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University Discuss Findings in Aortic Coarctation (Analysis of perioperative blood transfusion in patients with acute Stanford type A aortic dissection surgery).

A recent study conducted at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University in China analyzed the perioperative blood transfusion in patients with acute Stanford type A aortic coarctation. The study found that blood transfusion is necessary for the treatment of these patients, but massive transfusion of red blood cells was associated with increased mortality rate and longer hospital stays. The researchers also concluded that individualized restrictive transfusion strategies can reduce unnecessary blood transfusion and improve patient safety. The study highlights the importance of monitoring coagulation function and using a personalized approach to blood transfusion in these patients. [Extracted from the article]
