Journal ArticleDOI

Jeffrey L. Carson,Mark A. Kelley,Amy Duff,John G. Weg,William J. Fulkerson,Harold I. Palevsky,J. Sanford Schwartz,B. Taylor Thompson,John Popovich,Thomas E. Hobbins,Margaret A. Spera,Abass Alavi,Michael L. Terrin +12 more
TL;DR: When properly diagnosed and treated, clinically apparent pulmonary embolism was an uncommon cause of death, and it recurred in only a small minority of patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of anaemia and cardiovascular disease on surgical mortality and morbidity
Jeffrey L. Carson,Amy Duff,Roy M. Poses,Jesse A. Berlin,Richard K. Spence,Richard Trout,Helaine Noveck,Brian L. Strom +7 more
TL;DR: A low preoperative haemoglobin or a substantial operative blood loss increases the risk of death or serious morbidity more in patients with cardiovascular disease than in those without.
Journal ArticleDOI
Perioperative Blood Transfusion and Postoperative Mortality
Jeffrey L. Carson,Amy Duff,Jesse A. Berlin,Valerie A. Lawrence,Roy M. Poses,Elizabeth C. Huber,Dorene A. O'Hara,Helaine Noveck,Brian L. Strom +8 more
TL;DR: Perioperative transfusion in patients with hemoglobin levels 80 g/L (8.0 g/dL) or higher did not appear to influence the risk of 30- or 90-day mortality in this elderly population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk of bacterial infection associated with allogeneic blood transfusion among patients undergoing hip fracture repair.
Jeffrey L. Carson,Douglas G. Altman,Amy Duff,Helaine Noveck,Melvin P. Weinstein,Frank A. Sonnenberg,J I Hudson,G Provenzano +7 more
TL;DR: An increased risk of bacterial infection would represent the most important risk of allogeneic transfusion, because viral disease transmission has become so rare.
Journal ArticleDOI
A pilot randomized trial comparing symptomatic vs. hemoglobin-level-driven red blood cell transfusions following hip fracture.
Jeffrey L. Carson,Michael L. Terrin,F B Barton,R Aaron,A G Greenburg,D A Heck,Jay Magaziner,F E Merlino,G Bunce,B McClelland,Amy Duff,Helaine Noveck +11 more
TL;DR: The indications for transfusion have never been evaluated in an adequately sized clinical trial and a pilot study was conducted to plan larger clinical trials.
