Predicting intraoperative transfusion volumes of blood products in cardiovascular surgery: a retrospective study
This study developed a clinically useful formula for predicting the number of red blood cell units required during surgery based on preoperative patient-specific data, without restricting the analysis to specific procedures. This formula may improve blood product inventory management and reduce medical costs.
