Abstract:
Objective: To explore the risk factors of allogeneic blood transfusion during lung transplant surgery and prognostic effects of transfusion by analyzing the basic data, surgical details, laboratory tests results, and intraoperative blood transfusion details during the perioperative period of lung transplant, so as to guide clinical blood use. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 319 patients who underwent lung transplantation surgery in our hospital from January 2022 to December 2023. The patients were divided into a non-transfusion group (n=70) and a transfusion group (n=249) based on their intraoperative blood transfusion status. The clinical data, surgical details, perioperative laboratory results and other relevant preoperative and postoperative parameters were compared between the two groups, and the postoperative prognosis (improvement, non-recovery, and death) was analyzed. Results: After comparison between the two groups of patients, it was found that the non-transfusion group had higher levels of preoperative Hb (g/L)(144.41±17.66 vs 129.78±20.44), preoperative Hct [43.25(40.23, 47.5) vs 40.7(37, 43.55)], preoperative TBIL (μmol/L)[11.45(9.15, 15.3)vs 9.9(6.88, 13.33)], and postoperative PLT (×10
/L)(167.74±64.43 vs 132.37±54.84) than the transfusion group (all P<0.05). The non-transfusion group had lower levels of preoperative pCO
(mmHg)[41.4(37.4, 45.8)vs 45.3(40, 52.48)], postoperative TBIL (μmol/L)[25.45(17.68, 33.95)vs 30.8(21.55, 43.05)], postoperative pH (7.41±0.09 vs 7.45±0.10), bilateral lung transplantation [27(38.6%) vs 157(63.1%)], surgical duration (h) [5(4, 7)vs 6.5(5, 8)], use of ECMO [52(74.3%) vs 232(93.2%)], and intraoperative blood loss (mL)[600(500, 800)vs 1 000(800, 1 500)] compared to the transfusion group (all P<0.05). The items with P<0.1 in the compared indicators were included in the binary logistic regression analysis, and the results showed that bilateral lung transplantation, intraoperative blood loss, preoperative TBIL, postoperative PLT, postoperative TBIL, preoperative pCO2, and postoperative pH were significantly correlated with whether blood transfusion was performed (P<0.05). The P values of the Chi-square test for postoperative improvement and mortality in the non transfusion group and transfusion group were both greater than 0.05, indicating no statistically significant difference in the prognosis rate between the two groups of patients. Conclusion: Bilateral lung transplantation, intraoperative blood loss, preoperative TBIL, and preoperative pCO
are risk factors for blood transfusion during lung transplantation. Intraoperative blood transfusion has a significant impact on postoperative PLT, postoperative TBIL, and postoperative pH indicators, but has no significant effect on prognosis. A comprehensive evaluation of laboratory indicators and surgical details can help developing blood transfusion strategies more effectively.
