Autotransfusion after open heart surgery: quality of shed mediastinal blood compared to banked blood.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Managing the surgical process in the operating suite - often the most expensive unit in the hospital - is vital, yet challenging. While sensible management can improve efficiency, unclear managerial structures can hinder the optimal use of resources. Despite that, no previous data exists as to how the operat...
