Flaherty KR et al. – Risk–adjusted analysis showed an association between transfusion and longer duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU stay, and higher mortality and nosocomial infections. Thus, anemia and transfusions are common in the PICU and associated with worse outcomes. As blood draws were the main source of blood loss, strategies to minimize these may help decrease the rate of transfusions.
