Journal ArticleDOI

Development of the human coagulation system in the full-term infant

TL;DR: A large cohort of infants studied consecutively in the postnatal period allowed us to determine the normal development of the human coagulation system in the full-term infant and found that near-adult values are achieved for most components by 6 months of life.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of the hemostatic system in the neonate and young infant.

TL;DR: Current understanding of the protein components of the coagulation and fibrinolytic systems in the neonate is reviewed, which resulted in a better appreciation of the development of the hemostatic system in the infant.
Journal ArticleDOI

The variability of transfusion practice in coronary artery bypass surgery. Transfusion Medicine Academic Award Group.

TL;DR: It is concluded that blood component usage for coronary artery bypass grafts differs widely among institutions, and the variability in use of these components is accounted for in part by unnecessary transfusions in otherwise routine, uncomplicated coronary arteries bypass graft procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI

A phase III trial of recombinant human erythropoietin therapy in nonanemic orthopedic patients subjected to aggressive removal of blood for autologous use: dose, response, toxicity, and efficacy.

TL;DR: A randomized, controlled, multicenter dose‐escalation trial was conducted in patients whose initial hematocrit was > 39 percent and the role of EPO therapy in nonanemic patients remains undefined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Strategies for the review of transfusion practices.

TL;DR: There will be an increased need for trained personnel to perform the initial review process as well as for physicians trained in transfusion medicine to oversee the transfusions and provide the necessary consultation.
