Impact of perioperative hemoglobin-related parameters on clinical outcomes in patients with spinal metastases: identifying key markers for blood management.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Patients with spinal metastases undergoing surgical treatment face challenges related to preoperative anemia, intraoperative blood loss, and frailty, emphasizing the significance of perioperative blood management. This retrospective analysis aimed to assess the correlation between hemoglobin-related parameters and outcomes, identifying key markers to aid in blood management.

Methods

A retrospective review was performed to identify patients who underwent surgical treatment for spinal metastases. Hb-related parameters, including baseline Hb, postoperative nadir Hb, predischarge Hb, postoperative nadir Hb drift, and predischarge Hb drift (both in absolute values and percentages) were subjected to univariate and multivariate analyses. These analyses were conducted in con
