Abstract

Radical cystectomy procedure is seen to have large amount of blood lose and is noted that patient going through this procedure very often need blood transfusion. In our study, we discovered that induced hypotension while general and epidural anesthesia decreases the need for blood transfusion on the patients undergoing radical cystectomy procedure. Prospective, Randomized, single -blind trial.
Time period, from January2001-December 2012, 182 patients that were to have a radical cistectomy surgery. Pts(Patients) were divided in two groups, 90 patients in each group (two patients were excluded from the study because unable to perform epidural). But also are excluded from this study the
