It discusses aspects of perioperative blood management in the pediatric population, including how to accurately estimate and monitor bleeding and determine optimal treatment regimens for bleeding in pediatric surgical patients. It also provides information on the implementation of intraoperative blood conservation strategies, goal-directed transfusion therapy, and postoperative estimation of bleeding and thrombotic risks. This book is a valuable resource to pediatric practitioners and researchers who need comprehensive information on pediatric hematology, from basic physiology to pre-, intra- and postoperative care of pediatric patients.
The coagulation system of children evolves with age as evidenced by marked physiological differences in the concentration of hemostatic proteins between children of different age groups and adults. Consequently, there are distinct differences in hemostatic management between adult and pediatric patients.
- Covers essential concepts in hemostasis, indicating instances where pediatric and adult data conflict, along with foundational information on disorders of hemostasis in children and blood bank management for pediatric patients
- Concisely covers specifics of perioperative hemostatic management in neonates and children, including bedside monitoring of coagulation and goal-directed treatment of coagulopathy
- Discusses hemostatic management in the entire perioperative period, from preoperative assessment until discharge from the hospital
Researchers and graduate students focused on pediatric hematology, anesthesiologists, pediatric surgeons, critical care physicians, hematologists, pediatricians, and transfusion medicine specialists, researchers and graduate students focused on blood bank

Nina A. Guzzetta
Biography: Dr. Guzzetta is Professor of Anesthesiology and Pediatrics at Emory University School of Medicine and Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. She has been a practicing pediatric cardiac anesthesiologist since 1994. In addition to a busy clinical practice, she has performed extensive research focused on hemostasis in children, understanding the developmental changes in the hemostatic system of children and how these changes impact the clinical treatment of bleeding during major surgery. As a pediatric cardiac anesthesiologist, Dr. Guzzetta is particularly skilled in the hemostatic response to cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in neonates, infants and young children. Her research involves primarily translational or clinical investigations that focus on 1) understanding the maturational differences between the pediatric and adult hemostatic systems, 2) anticoagulation management of pediatric cardiac surgical patients undergoing CPB, 3) identification of factors associated with an increased risk of bleeding in children undergoing major surgery and 4) efforts to reduce bleeding and transfusion requirements including the use of novel pro-coagulant therapies. She has published numerous research articles, review articles and written book chapters on these important topics. Her expertise in the hemostatic system of children, her work with children presenting for major surgical procedures and her knowledge of pediatric blood conservation will help ensure the ultimate success of the proposed book.

David Faraoni
Dr. Faraoni is a Professor of Anesthesia at Baylor College of Medicine, and a practicing pediatric cardiac anesthesiologist at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston, Texas. Originally from Belgium, Dr. Faraoni worked as a pediatric cardiac anesthesiologist and a clinical researcher at Queen Fabiola Children’s University Hospital and the Free University of Brussels, Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, and the Hospital for Sick Children and the University of Toronto.
Dr. Faraoni is involved in both clinical management and research initiatives examining blood conservation in pediatric patients undergoing major surgical procedures. His expertise in pediatric blood management poised him as the lead author in the development of 2019 NATA (Network for the Advance of Transfusion Alternatives) Guidelines for “Patient Blood Management for Neonates and Children Undergoing Cardiac Surgery”. He has authored numerous research articles, review articles, and book chapters on blood management for children undergoing major surgeries.

Cassandra D. Josephson
Cassandra Josephson, M.D. is Professor of Oncology and Pediatrics at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. She is currently the Director of the Cancer and Blood Disorders Institute, Clinical Division Director for Hematology/Oncology, Medical Director of Blood Banking/Transfusion Medicine and Apheresis, at the Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital in St. Petersburg, Florida.
She hails from Florida where she attended the USF Health Morsani College of Medicine prior to training at the University of Colorado for her pediatric residency. Subsequently, she trained at Emory University College of Medicine for Pediatric Hematology/Oncology and Blood Banking/Transfusion Medicine training. She spent the following 20 years at Emory University prior to joining Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in 2022. Dr. Josephson’s research career focuses on pediatric transfusion medicine and, more specifically, transfusion therapy in neonates, sickle cell anemia, thalassemia, and massive transfusion in children with hemorrhage. She currently and previously garnered grants from National Institutes of Health, CDC, industry and private foundations where she is or has been the Principal Investigator. Dr. Josephson is actively involved in teaching medical students, residency, and fellowship trainees in pediatrics, pathology, anesthesia, and multiple surgical specialties. She has authored or co-authored high impact publications in peer-reviewed journals, in addition to numerous review articles and book chapters. She is one of the Co-Chairs for the REDS IV-Pediatrics Program evaluating Recipient Epidemiology and Donor Evaluation of Blood Products and Transfusion in the US and Brazil focused on Children. She also services as an Associate Editor for Transfusion, the journal of the Association for the Advancement of Blood & Biotherapies (AABB).
