The authors present a revolutionary study aiming to evaluate the effect of alterations in potassium concentrations in transfused packed red blood cells (PRBC) on the neonate and infant potassium levels after congenital cardiac surgery. By establishing a strict protocol that restricts the rate of transfusion, the age of the transfused PRBC, and not transfusing a PRBC with a potassium level above 15 mmol/L, they accomplished to suggest a safe and easy way for preventing transfusion-associated hyperkalemia.

预防小儿心脏手术中输血相关的高钾血症：使用前测量浓缩红细胞中的钾水平 – 特邀评论

作者提出了一项革命性研究，旨在评估输血浓缩红细胞 (PRBC) 中钾浓度的变化对先天性心脏手术后新生儿和婴儿钾水平的影响。通过制定严格的方案来限制输血速度、输血 PRBC 的年龄以及不输血钾水平高于 15 mmol/L 的 PRBC，他们成功地提出了一种预防输血相关高钾血症的安全简便的方法。
