Use of automated isovolemic hemodilution red‐cell exchange in patients with sickle cell disease: A Canadian single center experience
In this study IHD-RCE reduced RBC utilization without impacting efficacy or safety, conserving 107 RBC units (an annualized savings of $95,444 CAD). No adverse events due to saline replacement were observed. Increased awareness of the benefits of IHD-RCE through knowledge translation could promote greater uptake.
