Bloodless surgery is a term popularized in the early 20 for the practice of an internationally renowned orthopedic surgeon, Adolf Lorenz, who was known as the "bloodless surgeon of Vienna." This phrase reflects Lorenz methods for the treatment of patients with noninvasive techniques. His medical practice was a consequence of severe allergy to carbolic acid commonly used in operating rooms at the time. His condition forced him to become a "dry surgeon .
the contemporary use of bloodless surgery refers to both medical techniques and invasive and noninvasive protocols. The term is somewhat confusing. The expression does not mean "surgery that does not use blood or blood transfusion." Rather, it refers to surgery performed without allogeneic blood transfusion. Champions bloodless surgery, however, products made of allogeneic blood transfusion and use of pre-donated blood for autologous transfusion. The last twenty years have witnessed a surge of interest in bloodless surgery, for a variety of reasons. Jehovah's Witnesses refuse blood transfusions for religious reasons, while others may be worried about blood-borne diseases such as hepatitis and AIDS. Preoperative techniques such as erythropoietin (EPO) or iron administration are designed to stimulate erythropoiesis the patient.
Other methods include the use of blood substitutes, which currently do not carry oxygen, but to expand the volume of blood to avoid the collision. Blood substitutes that carry oxygen, such as PolyHeme, are also under development. Many physicians view acute normovolemic hemodilution, a storage form of blood from the patient, as a pillar of the "bloodless surgery", but the technique is not an option for patients who refuse transfusions of autologous blood.
