Abstract Background To analyze the perioperative bleeding and hidden blood loss (HBL) of sacroiliac screw minimally invasive treatment of pelvic posterior ring injury and explore the influential factors of HBL after operation for providing reference for clinical treatment. Method A retrospective analysis was conducted on data from 369 patients with posterior pelvic ring injuries treated with sacroiliac screws internal fixation at our hospital from January 2015 to January 2022. The research was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry in July 2022 (ChiCTR2200061866). The total blood loss (TBL) and HBL of patients were counted, and the factors such as gender, age, and surgical duration were statistically analyzed. The influential factors of HBL were analyzed by multiple linear regression. Results The TBL was 417.96 ± 98.05 ml, of which the visible blood loss (VBL) was 37.00 ± 9.0 ml and the HBL was 380.96 ± 68.8 ml. The HBL accounted for 91.14 ± 7.36% of the TBL. Gender, surgical duration, fixed position, and fixed depth had significant effects on the HBL (P < 0.05). Conclusions The HBL was the main cause of anemia after minimally invasive treatment of posterior pelvic ring injury with a sacroiliac screw. Gender, surgical duration, fixed position, and fixed depth were closely related to the occurrence of HBL. In clinical treatment, we should consider these influential factors and take effective measures to reduce the impact of HBL on patients.
