Role of Hemodilutional Anemia and Transfusion During Cardiopulmonary Bypass in Renal Injury After Coronary Revascularization: Implications on Operative Outcome
We aimed to 1) elucidate if and how this relation is modulated by the duration of CPB (TCPB) and on-pump packed red blood cell transfusions and 2) to quantify the impact of post-CPB renal injury on operational outcome and resource utilization.
