Abstract

The measurement of intraoperative blood-loss during TUR is concerned as a compulsory procedure for this kind of operation. After testing so far known methods for measuring blood-volume in blood-water-mixtures and demonstrating greater disadvantages of these methods, we developed a new photometer, which allows an immediate and exact estimation of the blood-loss. We compared this new method with other also exact but more complicated methods, had laboratory tests and tests in the daily operative routine and excluded possible mistakes.
