Background  Acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) is used to reduce the risk of peri-operative allogeneic blood transfusion. Although crystalloid and/or colloid solutions have been used for volume replacement during ANH, no studies have examined the differences among solutions on the volume status, electrolytes, acid-base balance, and hemodynamic status during surgery with ANH.    Methods  We retrospectively compared the effect of Ringer’s lactate with 3% dextran-40 (Saviosol®, DEX group) and 6% hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 in 0.9% sodium chloride (Voluven®, HES group) on blood hemoglobin serum electrolytes and estimated blood volume before induction of anesthesia (baseline), after ANH and after blood transfusion following surgery in patients undergoing open gynecological surgery ( n  = 111 and 67, respectively). The primary outcomes were the changes in hemoglobin and electrolytes after ANH.    Results  There were no differences in hemoglobin or electrolytes between the two groups at baseline. Postoperative hemoglobin was significantly higher (11.0 ± 1.5 g/dL vs 9.9 ± 1.3 g/dL) (mean ± SD) in the DEX group than in the HES group ( p  = 0.03). Postoperative potassium was significantly decreased from the baseline both in the DEX group (137.9 ± 2.5 mmol/L vs 136.3 ± 2.7 mmol/L) and in the HES group (138.3 ± 2.0 mmol/L vs 137.8 ± 2.5 mmol/L) ( p  < 0.001 for both); however, it was significantly higher than in the DEX group after surgery ( p  < 0.001). Estimated blood volume after surgery was significantly increased after ANH in both groups; however, it was larger in the HES group than in the DEX group.    Conclusions  Postoperative hemoglobin and potassium were significantly higher, and estimated blood volume was significantly smaller in the DEX than in the HES group.
