Regional Tolerance to Acute Normovolemic Hemodilution: Evidence that the Kidney May Be at Greatest Risk.
To evaluate the regional tolerance to acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH). ⋯ During graded ANH, increases in RBF were sufficient to maintain DO2 in only the heart, brain, and spinal cord. The especially marked decrease in DO2 in the kidney, combined with previous physiologic studies demonstrating its inability to augment EO2, suggest that this organ may be the most at risk of hypoxic damage during ANH.
