Abstract
Although total blood volume (TBV) is central to the estimation of the haemodilution rate during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), conventional formulas lack sufficient accuracy. The aim of this study was to establish a new formula using ideal body weight (BW) with adjustment for gender or age to estimate TBV for a more accurate prediction of the haemodilution rate during CPB.A total of 214 consecutive patients who underwent cardiac surgery with CPB...
