Summary

We believe ongoing bleeding during complex cardiac surgery can be accurately measured and that administration of a specific blood product replacement strategy designed to optimally slow or stop the bleeding can be followed by the during the operation. Patients at risk of significant bleeding after complex cardiac surgery will be approached to allow their operation to be watched by study personnel to see if ongoing blood loss can be accurately measured and to see how quickly a prescribed, standardized blood product replacement protocol to control the bleeding does slow or stop the bleeding. Permission to review the medical record to see if bleeding risk features can be identified and permission to follow the patient after surgery to see how they recover is also requested.
