A client is scheduled for surgery to remove an abdominal mass. The nurse knows
that which reason hemodilution would be contraindicated as a method to provide
blood to the client during the surgery?

History of renal disease
Hemodilution is the removal of 1 to 2 units of blood after induction of anesthesia and
replaced with a colloid or crystalloid solution. The blood is then reinfused after the
surgery. The purpose of this approach is to reduce the amount of erythrocytes lost
during the surgery because the intravenous fluids dilute the concentration of red blood
cells and lowers the hematocrit. Hemodilution has been linked to tissue ischemia in the
kidneys and would be contraindicated in the client with a history of renal disease.
Hemodilution would not be contraindicated for a previous thyroidectomy, treatment for
osteoarthritis, or medication used to treat seasonal allergies.
