Multinational transfusion practices and outcomes in haematology patients admitted to the intensive care unit Open
Background and Objectives The number of critically ill patients with haematological conditions is increasing, yet transfusion practices in this population remain poorly defined. This study aimed to compare transfusion strategies in critica…

Global transfusion practices in septic patients in the intensive care unit: insights from the <span>InPUT</span> ‐study sub‐analysis Open
Background Transfusion practices among intensive care unit (ICU) patients with sepsis vary widely. While restrictive hemoglobin thresholds for red blood cell (RBC) transfusion are well studied, the indications and thresholds for platelet a…

Platelet Transfusion Practices in the ICU: A Prospective Multicenter Cohort Study Open
Objective: There is a lack of comprehensive international data regarding platelet transfusion practices in the ICU. This study aimed to evaluate the current occurrence rate of platelet transfusion in the ICU and provide an overview of plat…

Blood Transfusion Practices in Intensive Care: A Prospective Observational Binational Study Open
IMPORTANCE: Blood transfusions are a common and potentially lifesaving intervention in ICU patients but are associated with harm and often transfused inconsistently with guidelines. However, it is not well known how ICU transfusion practic…

Plasma transfusion in the intensive care unit Open
Background Current guidelines discourage prophylactic plasma use in non‐bleeding patients. This study assesses global plasma transfusion practices in the intensive care unit (ICU) and their alignment with current guidelines. Study Design a…

Transfusion practices in intensive care units: An Australian and New Zealand point prevalence study Open
Non-RBC transfusion decisions are often not aligned with guidelines and VHA is commonly available but rarely used to guide transfusions. Better evidence to guide transfusions in ICUs is needed.

Red Blood Cell Transfusion in the Intensive Care Unit Open
Importance Red blood cell (RBC) transfusion is common among patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Despite multiple randomized clinical trials of hemoglobin (Hb) thresholds for transfusion, little is known about how these thre…

Preoperative identification of cardiac surgery patients at risk of receiving a platelet transfusion: The Australian Cardiac Surgery Platelet Transfusion (<span>ACSePT</span>) risk prediction tool Open
Background Platelet (PLT) transfusions are limited and costly resources. Accurately predicting clinical demand while limiting product wastage remains difficult. A PLT transfusion prediction score was developed for use in cardiac surgery pa…

Duration of platelet storage and outcomes of critically ill patients Open
BACKGROUND The storage duration of platelet (PLT) units is limited to 5 to 7 days. This study investigates whether PLT storage duration is associated with patient outcomes in critically ill patients. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS This study was…

Transfusion of stored platelets: balancing risks and product availability Open
Platelet (PLT) transfusions are used for both treatment of bleeding and preventing bleeding in patients with thrombocytopenia and/or functionally abnormal PLTs. To ensure the efficacy of transfused PLTs, they must be stored at room tempera…
