- W2741444892 abstract "Anemia is very common in critically ill patients and is usually treated with blood transfusions. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of anemia, transfusion rate and practice in the intensive care unit (ICU). This prospective cohort study was carried out in a medical-surgical ICU of a tertiary referral hospital. Patients admitted to the ICU for >48 hours were included. The following were documented: patient demographic data and ICU admission diagnosis; baseline haemoglobin (Hb), platelet count, prothrombin time, partial thromboplastin time, creatinine level, urea level, alanine aminotransferase level, and bilirubin level; and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment scores. Daily Hb levels were collected. Overall, 449 patients were included in the study (mean age, 46.5 years; range, 14-94 years). Most patients (64.4% men and 69.9% women) were anemic on ICU admission and 83.4% patients were anemic during their ICU stay. Approximately one-third (32%) patients developed thrombocytopenia. Sepsis was the most common admission diagnosis. Most patients had central venous catheters (92.4%) or mechanical ventilation (81.1%). ICU and hospital mortality were 12.2% and 19.2%, respectively. Half (49.9%) the study population received at least 1 transfusion consisting of an average of 2 units of packed red blood cells. Logistic regression analysis showed that transfusion is associated with increased ICU (P<.0001) and hospital mortality (P=.0004). The anemia prevalence and the transfusion rate in our population were very high. The current transfusion practice definitely warrants improvement." @default.
