The safety and efficacy of red cell transfusions in neonates: a systematic review of randomized controlled trials.

The safety and efficacy of red cell transfusions in neonates: a systematic review of randomized controlled trials.

Premature neonates commonly receive red blood cell (RBC) transfusions. This study systematically identified and appraised randomized controlled trials (RCTs) where the intervention was 'transfusion of red blood cells' from searches of multiple databases. Primary review outcomes were mortal...
