Methods: 30 patients with spinal internal fixation autologous blood transfusion combined with controlled hypotension were selected as the subjects during the epidemic period from December 2019 to June 2020 in our hospital and during the operation, on the basis of routine blood pressure reduction, the American Haemonetice Corporation autologous blood continuous reinfusion system was used to infuse the blood recovered during the operation to the patient through filtration and other procedures. Results: 30 patients had no complications such as fever and hemolysis; And after the operation, the tube was dialed according to the drainage volume, the cervical thoracic and lumbar brace was customized, and the patient walked on the ground for one week; After no abnormalities, the patient was discharged. Intraoperative comparison of white blood cells (WBC), red blood cells (RBC), red blood cell pressure (HCT), hemoglobin (HGB), and coagulation time (PT) of patients with autologous blood before and after transfusion showed statistically significant differences before and after surgery (P < 0.001). Conclusion: During the new coronavirus pneumonia epidemic, the internal fixation of spinal surgery used a recovery machine to collect intraoperative blood for reinfusion. Intraoperative antihypertensive drugs were used to control blood pressure within a certain safe range.

The profiles were determined in 51 patients, 32 of whom were male and 19 female, with an age range of 17 to 51 years, admitted to the clinical hematology department of the University Hospital and to the National Reference Center for Sickle Cell Disease. The tests were performed on pre- and post-transfusion blood samples. The following reagents were used: GeenscreenTMultraHIVAg-Ab, MonolisaAg-HBs plus, Monoli-saHCV Ag-Ab Ultrade Bio-Radot for the detection of HIV, HBV and HCV by fourth generation ELISA tests (serological tests). The results showed that the indications for blood transfusion were: acute crises of anemia due to malaria and in some cases of Vaso-Occlusive Crises (VOC) resistance to analgesic treatment. The prevalence rates of the markers before the new transfusion were respectively: HIV: 0%, HBV: 1.96%, HCV: 3.92%. After transfusion, the final seroprevalence rates of the markers are: HIV: 0%, HBV: 5.88%, HCV: 3.92%. The seroconversion rate for HBV was 3.92%. One case of HBV + HCV co-infection (1.96%). Conclusion: Transfusion safety is achieved through good transfusion practices and the qualification of blood donations. Homozygous sickle cell disease, characterized by frequent anemia attacks, requires a guar-antee of efficient transfusion practices in order to limit microbial risks.","PeriodicalId":93480,"journal":{"name":"Open journal of blood diseases","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70613533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
