A member asked:

No blood transfusion hip surgery is there any doctors/hospitals doing hip replacement surgery without blood transfusions

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Let me explain: There are many surgeon how dose auto transfusion. Take blood form you before the surgery and give to you if you need it. Another method to filter the blood which come from you, during the surgery and give back to you.
