The patient has never had a transfusion before. He is 70, male. Previously in an outside hospital they could find compatible blood and they drew preop autologous. I advised the dr to perform Intraop Isovolemic Hemodilution tomorrow. He has.. hmmm what's it called, Spinal stenosis or something.. he is near paralysis What do you mean .. how long and why and. at what temp should they sit together. Dave, thank you for your prompt reply! Liz
