Heart surgery patients try using their own blood to avoid donor risks

NCT ID NCT05889494

Summary

This small pilot study tested a new method for heart surgery patients at high risk of bleeding. Researchers wanted to see if collecting and giving patients their own blood back after surgery works as well as the standard method of using donated blood products. The goal was to check if this approach is practical and might reduce complications and the need for donor blood.
