The association of red blood cell transfusion with mortality in pediatric patients with sepsis, severe sepsis, and septic shock: A single-center retrospective cohort study
RBC transfusions are significantly associated with increased ICU length of stay and not associated with 28-day mortality and mechanical ventilation rate. Other factors affecting mortality in pediatric patients with sepsis, severe sepsis, and septic shock are younger age, use of mechanical ventilation, and more severe disease.
