  • the surgeon will observe a continuous slowly increasing inflow rate and will identify likely targets for thresholds of the surface bleeding scoring system.

  • the surgeon may identify the following thresholds as likely candidates for changes in the SBSS: 0, 1 .0 ml/min, 3.0 ml/min, 5.0 ml/min, 15.0 ml/min, and 50.0 ml/min.
  • Step 1 The surgeon begins with a clean surface.
  • Step 2 Blood flow begins at the given flow rate.
