Fig. 4From: The pressure field as a methodology for fluid management and red cell preservation during cardiac surgerya An average of 0.4 units of whole blood was administered in the conventional group per patient. No blood was administered in the pressure field group. b Change in haemoglobin concentration was positively correlated with blood transfused in the conventional treatment group (∆[Hb] = 5.1 × units of blood-54 g/L, R2 = 0.134, p < 0.001). c There was no correlation between intravenous fluid administered in the pressure field management group and change in haemoglobin concentration.
