Transfusion of red blood cells in VA #ECMO, international mixed-method study
large majority of pts received RBC transfusion
sum of RBC transfusions increases rapidly after initiation, depending on Hb threshold applied
amount of daily administered RBC highest in the first days
lower Hb prior to #ECLS, longer run, hemorrhage associated with probability of being transfused
no differences in overall survival between transfusion status or different regimens
