Blood substitutes are solutions for patients who need blood transfusions, but are not available. This interest has intensified in the wake of the AIDS and hepatitis C epidemics. Blood Substitutes , rationale, current approaches, clinical efficacy, and design issues for all blood substitutes now in clinical trials. The many summary diagrams and tables help make the book access readers such as surgeons and blood bankers who are designing and testing blood substitutes.

* Includes chapters in the understanding of blood substitutes, including history, toxicity, physiology, and clinical applications
* Presents detailed descriptions of the development of clinical trials
