Anemia And Blood Transfusion In The Critically Ill Patient: Role Of Erythropoietin, Howard L. Corwin
Anemia And Blood Transfusion In The Critically Ill Patient: Role Of Erythropoietin, Howard L. Corwin
Dartmouth Scholarship
Critically ill patients receive an extraordinarily large number of blood transfusions. Between 40% and 50% of all patients admitted to intensive care units receive at least 1 red blood cell (RBC) unit during their stay, and the average is close to 5 RBC units. RBC transfusion is not risk free. There is little evidence that 'routine' transfusion of stored allogeneic RBCs is beneficial to critically ill patients. The efficacy of perioperative recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) has been n demonstrated in a variety of elective surgical settings. Similarly, in critically ill patients with multiple organ failure, rHuEPO therapy will also stimulate …
