Establishment and assessment of a nomogram for predicting blood transfusion risk in posterior lumbar spinal fusion

Haosheng Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between blood transfusion requirement and predictors after posterior lumbar spinal fusion, including fusion levels, operative time, preoperative Hb level, and intraoperative blood loss. A nomogram was developed to assess the risk of transfusion, showing good discrimination and calibration. The nomogram has clinical utility in helping clinicians make decisions, but external validation is still necessary.

Ravi V. Joshi et al.

Summary: The survey revealed widespread adoption of several best practices in cardiac surgery, such as tolerance of lower hemoglobin transfusion triggers and use of antifibrinolytics, but gaps remain in preoperative anemia management and the use of transfusion algorithms supplemented with POC hemostasis testing. Practices with a multidisciplinary patient blood management team were the most successful in meeting all criteria, indicating the importance of a coordinated approach in improving blood conservation and hemostasis practices.

Significant Variation in Blood Transfusion Practice Persists Following Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Surgery

Sandra M. O'Malley et al.

Summary: Following Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) surgery, there is significant variation in perioperative blood transfusion practices across surgeons and hospitals. The use of autologous blood transfusion and implementation of institutional transfusion protocols may reduce unwarranted variation and potentially decrease infectious complication rates. Surgeon and hospital characteristics explain a significant portion of surgeon variation but only a small amount of hospital variation in transfusion practices.

Summary: A scoring tool, TRPS, was developed for predicting transfusion requirement in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. It showed 68% sensitivity and 79% specificity in predicting blood utilization, with a total score value of 5 chosen as the cut-off for two risk groups. Internal validation demonstrated an accuracy of 70% for TRPS, indicating it is a simple, reliable and accurate tool.

External validation of clinical prediction models: simulation-based sample size calculations were more reliable than rules-of-thumb

Kym I. E. Snell et al.

Summary: Rules-of-thumb for sample size in external validation of clinical prediction models may not be precise, with factors like LP distribution affecting precision of performance estimates. A tailored simulation-based approach can offer more flexibility and reliability in determining sample size requirements for validation.

Developing a predictive risk score for perioperative blood transfusion: a retrospective study in patients with oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma undergoing free flap reconstruction surgery

Jun-Qi Su et al.

Summary: This retrospective study aimed to develop a model to predict blood transfusion requirements in patients undergoing surgery with free flap reconstruction for oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Logistic regression analyses identified certain factors as independent predictors of blood transfusion, and the resulting risk score was able to accurately predict transfusion risk, especially for high-risk patients. The model showed good discriminatory accuracy in predicting the need for perioperative transfusions in this patient population.
