Liberal or Restrictive Transfusion in High-Risk Patients after Hip Surgery

TL;DR: A liberal transfusion strategy, as compared with a restrictive strategy, did not reduce rates of death or inability to walk independently on 60-day follow-up or reduce in-hospital morbidity in elderly patients at high cardiovascular risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of anaemia and cardiovascular disease on surgical mortality and morbidity

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

Mortality and morbidity in patients with very low postoperative Hb levels who decline blood transfusion

TL;DR: In this article, a retrospective cohort study of patients who declined RBC transfusions for religious reasons was performed, and the risk of death was low in patients with postoperative Hb levels of 7.1 to 8.0 g per dL, although morbidity occurred in 9.4 percent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Perioperative Blood Transfusion and Postoperative Mortality

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

Medical Complications and Outcomes After Hip Fracture Repair

TL;DR: Most patients had no medical complications after hip fracture repair and serious cardiac and pulmonary complications were equally important in frequency, mortality, and survivors' length of stay.
