Hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelet count, and WBC were analyzed on a Cell-Dyn Sapphire analyzer (Abbot Diagnostics, Abbot Park, IL). The Leucocount kit from BD (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA) was used for residual WBC analysis, with a BD FACSCanto II cytometer. Plasma hemoglobin was analyzed with the HemoCue Plasma/Low Hb photometer (HemoCue AB, Angelholm, Sweden) to calculate hemolysis.
Lactate and blood gas analysis was performed on whole blood samples with an ABL 800 FLEX (Radiometer Medical ApS, Brøndshøj, Denmark).
Glucose, potassium, and Factor VIII were analyzed with the Cobas 8000 ISE module (Roche Diagnostics GmbH, Rotkreuz, Switzerland). FVIII and fibrinogen levels were analyzed with the STA-R Evolution/STA-R Max platform (Stago S.A.S., Asnieres-sur-Seine, Paris, France).
All plasma samples were prepared by centrifugation at 1850 G for 10 min in RT.

The fHb was measured with the HemoCue Plasma Low/Hb Photometer (HemoCue, Inc., Angelholm, Sweden) which is a sensitive test method and can detect down to 0 · 0 g/dl [11 (link)]. Hb concentrations were measured using a HemoCue Hb 201 + Analyzer (Kuvettgatan1, Angelholm, Sweden). The percentage of hemolysis was calculated using the following formula: Percentage of hemolysis (%) = [(1-Hct) × fHb/Hb] × 100 % [20 (link)].

Free haemoglobin concentrations were measured using a HemoCue Plasma Low/Hb Photometer (HemoCue, Inc., Angelholm, Sweden). Haemoglobin (Hb) concentrations were measured using a HemoCueHb 201+ Analyser (Kuvettgatan 1, Angelholm, Sweden). Albumin concentrations were measured using HITACHI 7600 automatic biochemical analyser (Japan), and the concentration of calcium and haematocrit (Hct) were measured using GEM Premier 3000 blood gas machine (USA). The internal quality control of HITACHI 7600 automatic biochemical analyser was done with the standard samples from Wako Pure Chemical Industries every morning, and external quality control was done with the samples provided by National Centre for Clinical Laboratories every four months. The quality control of GEM Premier 3000 blood gas machine was done with the standard samples from Instrumentation Laboratory.

The BI during the enucleation procedure was measured using the HemoCue Plasma/Low Hb photometer Ängelholm, Sweden) [24 (link),25 (link)] and the following equation:
The patients had blood drawn 1 day before the procedure, and the blood Hb concentration was measured. The Hb concentration was obtained from the irrigants collected during the procedure. To avoid blood coagulation, 15,000 IU of heparin was added to every 10 L container of collected irrigants during the operation [26 (link)].

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
