Risk factors for hidden blood loss in unilateral biportal endoscopic lumbar interbody fusion : a single-center retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Hidden blood loss (HBL) is often ignored unilateral biportal endoscopic interbody fusion surgery (ULIF). We investigated the amount and influencing factors of HBL in ULIF surgery in this study.

Methods

From October 2020 to November 2023, 100 patients' clinical and radiological data were retrospectively analyzed. Pearson or Spearman correlation and multivariate linear regression were used to identify factors linked to HBL.

Results

The mean hidden blood loss (HBL) was 255.84 ± 290.89 ml, making up 62.48% of total blood loss. Correlation analysis showed HBL positively related to ASA classification (P = 0.009), operation time (P = 0.004), number of operation levels (P = 0.046), and paraspinal muscle thickness (P = 0.043), but negatively related to tranexamic ac
