Epidemiology of Peroperative Bleeding and Transfusion During Scheduled Surgery.
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Control and Unanticipated bleeding for Surgery and Blood Loss. Completed, enrolled 1,439 participants.
Detailed Summary
Peroperative bleeding has been studied in specific populations exposed to bleeding (i.e. cardiac surgery, orthopedic surgery). Epidemiology of peroperative bleeding and transfusion remain poorly studied in the whole cohort of patients scheduled for surgery remain unknown. The investigators conducted a prospective study in order to examine the incidence, and risk factors associated with peroperative bleeding and transfusion.
