TL;DR
The impact of CPB, off-pump status, preoperative hematocrit <35%, gender, age ≥65 yr, and weight ≤83 kilograms using median values as cut points, on blood use was examined using logistic regression models.
Abstract
We examined the impact of cardiopulmonary bypass, preoperative hematocrit, gender, age, and body weight on blood use in patients undergoing primary coronary artery bypass surgery at a tertiary care institution. We found that all five of these variables are significant predictors of blood use in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery.

The damaging effects of CPB are demonstrated, relates them in part to complement activation by the foreign surfaces encountered by the blood, and supports the hypothesis that the mechanisms of the damaging effects include a whole-body inflammatory reaction.

Significant variability in institutional transfusion practice was observed for allogeneic packed red blood cells (PRBCs) and hemostatic blood components and for patients at institutions with liberal rather than conservative transfusions practice.

In low-risk patients, there was no difference in cardiac outcome at one year between those who underwent on-pump bypass surgery and those who undergo off-p Pump surgery, and off-Pump surgery was more cost effective.

It is concluded that blood component usage for coronary artery bypass grafts differs widely among institutions, and the variability in use of these components is accounted for in part by unnecessary transfusions in otherwise routine, uncomplicated coronary arteries bypass graft procedures.

To promote patient-centered care, clinicians should measure the health status of their patients with the use of standardized surveys, and then use this information to assist in clinical decision-making.

It is demonstrated that readily available patient variables can predict patients at risk for transfusion and routine use of aprotinin and other adjustments of cardiopulmonary bypass should be considered to reduce transfusion in high-risk patients.

Multivariable analysis techniques were used in this study to develop a prediction rule for preoperative identification of those at high risk for requiring blood and to allow for the cost‐effective use of some blood conservation modalities.

Avoiding cardiopulmonary bypass decreases perioperative bleeding and, consequently, reduces the use of blood products after coronary artery bypass grafting, which might result in fewer transfusion-related complications.

It is implied that female sex does not predict increased duration of tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation and ICULOS in this group of patients, which implies that females undergoing OPCAB surgery require increased resource utilization as measured by increases in blood transfusion, PLOS, and LOS.
