April 2022 PERFORMING BLOODLESS SURGERYFeaturing: Magdy Milad, MD, MS
Episode SummaryIn this Better Edge podcast episode, Magdy Milad, MD, MS, the chief of Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery and the Albert B. Gerbie, MD, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Northwestern Medicine, discusses a unique type of surgery that Northwestern Medicine offers that does not require a blood transfusion — a surgery without blood.
Dr. Milad discusses the importance of blood conservation and the responsibility of caring for patients whose religious preferences do not allow them to accept blood transfusions, meaning that they may need blood transfusion alternatives. These patients may have trouble finding physicians who optimize their surgical outcomes. He also describes techniques that can minimize blood loss during bloodless surgeries and talks about what physicians should consider when planning this type of surgery. |
