Modeling Blood Management and Hemolytic Risk in Pediatric Heart Surgery
Sponsor: Boston Children's Hospital
Summary
This study aims to learn more about blood management in children undergoing heart surgery, such as the right amounts, and the best blood products, to administer. It also aims to develop a mathematical model that may help researchers better predict and treat patients who need blood transfusions during heart surgery.
