Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to establish a benchmark for measuring blood loss by directly measuring the change in red cell volume before and after surgery and to compare established blood loss estimators to this benchmark in order to determine the most accurate and precise method for estimating blood loss in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery patients

Primary Outcome

The established blood loss estimators include the Gross equation, the Bourke and Smith equation, the Camarasa formula, and equations based on salvaged blood volumes (e.g. 2x cell saver volume). The benchmark blood loss estimate and all of the established blood loss estimators will estimate blood loss in mLs. Thus, the change in surgical blood loss between the benchmark estimator and each of the established blood loss estimators will also be in mLs.

Interventions
