Red cell distribution width improves the simplified acute physiology score for risk prediction in unselected critically ill patients
Introduction: Recently, red cell distribution width (RDW), a measure of erythrocyte size variability, has been shown to be a prognostic marker in critical illness. The aim of this study was to investigate whether adding RDW has the potential to improve the prognostic performance of the simplified ac...
