Cell Saver (Blood Salvage) Intraoperative cell salvage is a device used in surgery. It is a different choice other than getting blood transfusions from someone else. It collects the blood you lose during your surgery, cleans the blood and returns the blood back to you. Up to 80 per cent of the red blood cells you lose during your surgery can be returned to you.
As the name implies, cell savers are used to. âsaveâ red blood cells of the patient that. would otherwise be lost. The reasoning is. that by this âsavingâ, the exposure of the pa-. tients to allogeneic red blood transfusions is. reduced. As we know that transfusion of allo-. geneic red blood cells is âbadâ, we think that. we do a good job by using intra-operative. cell saving.
