Influence of homoblood transfusion and hemodilution on central hemodynamics in patients operated on for prostate adenoma

Two groups of patients operated on under neuroleptic narcosis for prostate adenoma were examined. In the first group (78 patients), the surgical blood loss was compensated with an equal volume of homologous blood, in the second (66 patients), the surgical intervention was performed under conditions of acute normovolemic hemodilution. In patients of the 2nd group, a significantly more pronounced improvement in the indicators of central hemodynamics in the postoperative period and an increase in myocardial contractility with minimal energy consumption were stated.
