A member asked:
In a 6 scoliosis surgery, approximately how many different donors would blood be received from?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: It depends on how many units were transfused. Usually there will be one donor per unit transfused, unless a cell saver was used or you donated blood for the procedure
