ABSTRACT
Conclusion:
Further large-scale studies are needed to determine the clinical, biochemical, and hemodynamic effects of colloid and crystalloid use in the postperfusion period. The results suggest that close monitoring of drainage is necessary in patients who receive crystalloid and colloid in the prime solution.
Results:
No statistically significant difference was found between the use of crystalloid and colloid in prime solution.
Materials and Methods:
Coronary artery bypass graft surgeries performed at the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Kahramanmaraş Necip Fazıl City Hospital were retrospectively examined. A total of 100 patients were included in the study, and preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative data on the techniques used were analyzed retrospectively. Patients who received colloid and those who did not received colloid in the prime solution were compared in terms of blood and blood product usage, hematocrit, drainage volume, and activated clotting time at 24 h after surgery.
Objective:
To investigate the effect of prime solutions used in cardiac surgery on blood parameters.
