Abstract
An exchange transfusion was performed preoperatively on a patient with sickle cell disease using a continuous-flow blood cell separator. An exchange of 2,825 ml red blood cells achieved a hemoglobin A level of 90.8 per cent. The continuous-flow blood cell separator appears to offer a safe and effective method of exchange transfusion in sickling disorders.Entities:
