Transfusion strategies in neuroanaesthesia and neurocritical care
The emerging evidence challenges the universal application of restrictive transfusion practices in neurocritical care, suggesting that optimal transfusion thresholds may be pathology-specific. While liberal strategies may benefit TBI patients, equivalent outcomes with restrictive approaches in subarachnoid hemorrhage indicate the need for nuanced, evidence-based protocols tailored to specific neurological conditions.
