There are also fluids with special properties, such as Dextran, Haemaccel, and lactated Ringer's solution and Hetastarch (HES). {Such fluids have definite advantages; they are relatively nontoxic and inexpensive, readily available, can be stored at room temperature, require no compatibility testing and are free of the risk of transfusion-transmitted disease} Physicians can also help their patients to form more red cells by giving them iron-containing preparations (into muscles or veins), which can aid the body in making red cells three to four times faster than normal. Your kidneys produce a hormone called erythropoietin (EPO), which stimulates bone marrow to form red cells. Now, synthetic (recombinant) EPO is available. {Doctors may give this to some anemic patients, helping them to form replacement red cells very quickly.***Cooling a patient to lessen his oxygen needs during surgery*Laser "scalpels"*Hypotensive anesthesia*Therapy to improve coagulation*The heart-lung machine*Desmopressin (DDAVP) to shorten bleeding time.

Contracts are usually signed so that doctors and nurses aren't held liable if adverse effects come from treatments or procedures that may inherently carry risks.
