Zusammenfassung:Liver transplant (LT) surgery is associated with significant bleeding in 20% of cases, and several authors have demonstrated the risks related to blood components. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the impact of using blood components during hospitalization in five-year survival of patients undergoing LT. One hundred and thirteen patients were evaluated retrospectively. Several variables, including the use of blood components intraoperatively and throughout hospitalization, were categorized and evaluated by univariate analysis using Fisher's test. A level of significance of 5% was adopted. Results with p < 0.2 underwent multivariate analysis using multinomial logistic regression. Parenchymal diseases, preoperative renal dysfunction, and longer stay in hospital and ICU are associated with greater five-year mortality after LT (p < 0.05). Unlike the intraoperative use of blood components, the accumulated transfusion of packed red blood cell, frozen fresh plasma, and platelets during the entire hospitalization was associated with greater five-year mortality after liver transplantation (p < 0.01). This study emphasizes the relationship between the use of blood components during hospitalization and increased mortality in five years after LT. A cirurgia de transplante hepático (TH) continua associada a sangramento importante em 20% dos casos, e diversos autores têm demonstrado os riscos relacionados ao uso de hemocomponentes. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o impacto do uso de hemocomponentes durante toda a hospitalização na sobrevida em cinco anos de pacientes submetidos a TH. Um total de 113 pacientes submetidos ao TH foi avaliado retrospectivamente. Diversas variáveis, incluindo uso de hemocomponentes no intraoperatório e durante toda a hospitalização, foram categorizadas e avaliadas por meio de análise univariada, pelo teste de Fisher. O nível de significância adotado foi de 5%. Os resultados com p < 0,2 foram submetidos a uma análise multivariada pelo modelo de regressão logística multinominal. Doenças parenquimatosas, disfunção renal pré-operatória e maior tempo de internação no CTI e hospitalar se associaram a maior mortalidade em cinco anos após o TH (p < 0,05). Ao contrário do uso de hemocomponentes no intraoperatório, a transfusão acumulada de concentrado de hemácias, plasma fresco congelado e concentrado de plaquetas durante toda a internação hospitalar foi associada à maior mortalidade em cinco anos após o transplante de fígado (p
