title: [Normovolemic hemodilution of autologous fresh frozen plasma in surgery of the spinal cord in children].
abstract: The authors describe results of using autologous chilled plasma in making acute normovolemic hemodilution with exfusion of 20% of the circulating blood volume in 38 children of 6-16 years of age in planned surgery of the spinal cord. The autologous chilled plasma was also included in the intraoperative infusion-transfusion program. The average blood loss was 32% of the circulating blood volume. No complications were noted. The method allows to refuse of using donor blood components in blood loss as great as 45%.
