Outcomes of Patient Blood Management in Severely Anemic Patients
Sponsor: Helios Klinik Gotha/Ohrdruf
Summary
The goal of this observational cohort study is to compare patients with very low red blood counts who receive different therapy. Its main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Which group of patients dies more frequent: Patients who receive patient blood management only, patients who receive patient blood management and transfusions or patients who receive only transfusions? * Among these groups: which group of patients has more complications during hospital stay? Patients will either receive patient blood management, which is the management of anemia, bleeding and coagulation problems, will receive transfusions, that is, blood from other people, or a mix of both.
