Evaluation of a Pre-Filled Table and a Flowchart-Based Algorithm as Cognitive Aids to Reduce Deviations in Dose Calculation for Intraoperative Red Blood Cell Transfusions in Children—An International Web-Based Simulation

Evaluation of a Pre-Filled Table and a Flowchart-Based Algorithm as Cognitive Aids to Reduce Deviations in Dose Calculation for Intraoperative Red Blood Cell Transfusions in Children—An International Web-Based Simulation

Background: Transfusion of red blood cell concentrate can be life-saving, but requires accurate dose calculations in children.
