Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Information from a prospective database of 501 patients undergoing major hepatobiliary and pancreatic (HPB) HPB resection (2015–2022) were analysed. Patients who received cell salvage (n=264) were compared with those who did not (n=237).
a) data including demographics (age/gender/BMI/preoperative haemoglobin, haematocrit), operation type, postoperative outcomes and transfusion rates were all collected
b) electronic medical records were used to obtain the above data. Participants were not actively involved in our data collection (i.e. did not fill out any surveys, nor did they visit a clinic for a consultation.

Statistical methods / analysis
Non-autologous transfusion was assessed from the time of surgery to 5 days post-surgery, and blood loss tolerance was calculated using the Lemmens-Bernstein-Brodosky formula. Multivariate analysis was used to identify factors associated with allogenic blood transfusion avoidance.
