Safety of Lowering the Platelet Transfusion Threshold Before Central Venous Catheterisation in Patients With Haematological Diseases

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Central venous catheter (CVC) insertion is frequently required in patients with haematological diseases.
