How many of you guys are routinely doing this? Do you have an institutional guideline in place? Do you feel it's reduced allogeneic transfusion requirements?
I feel like I don't take very much when I do it (500cc), and the pts that I do collect from (pre-op crits around 38-40+) rarely require a ton of products post-pump anyway.
