Summary
This pilot study tested a plan for a larger Canada-wide trial. It looked at whether using a patient's own blood during heart surgery is as good as using donated blood products to reduce bleeding and complications. 64 adults at high risk for bleeding were randomly assigned to receive either their own blood or donated blood. The main goal was to see if the study procedures were practical and effective.
