Acute Transfusion Reactions in a Tertiary Care Hospital: The Saudi Context

Scientific Journal of King Faisal University: Basic and Applied Sciences, 2022
Although blood transfusion is a life-saving procedure, it can be associated with complications in rare cases. An acute transfusion reaction (ATR) is a complication where recipients exhibit an adverse reaction within 24 hours of a blood transfusion.

Transfusion strategies for patients in pediatric intensive care units [PDF]

, 2007
Background: The optimal hemoglobin threshold for erythrocyte transfusions in critically ill children is unknown. We hypothesized that a restrictive transfusion strategy of using packed red cells that were leukocyte-reduced before storage would be as safe

Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...
