Patients undergoing liver transplantation often experience coagulopathy and massive intraoperative blood loss that can lead to morbidity and reduced survival. The aim of this study was to verify the survival rate and discover predictive factors for death among liver transplant patients who received massive intraoperative blood transfusions. This cohort study was based on prospective data collected retrospectively from January 2004 to July 2006. The 232 patients were distributed according to their blood requirements, (namely, more or less than 6 units), including red blood cell saver. The statistical analyses were performed using Student t test, Cox hazard regression, and the Kaplan-Meier method (log-rank test). The massively transfused cohort displayed higher Child-Pugh classifications (10.2 vs 9.6; P =.03); model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) scores (19 vs 17; P =.02); recipient weights (75.4 vs 71 kg; P =.03); as well as warm ischemia times (70.7 vs 56.4 minutes; P <.001) and surgery times (584.6 vs 503.4 minutes; P <.05). The proportional hazard (Cox) regression analysis showed that the risk of death increased 2.1% for each unit of donor sodium and 1.6% for each additional year of donors age over 50. The survival rates at 6, 12, 60, and 120 months for >= 6 vs <6 U of blood transfusion of 63.8% vs 83.3%; 53.9% vs 76.3%; 40% vs 60%; 34.5% vs 49.2%. In conclusion, we observed that patients receiving over 6 red blood cell units intraoperatively displayed reduced survival. Predictive factors for this risk factor were high donor level of sodium and of age.
