Are lower levels of red blood cell transfusion more cost-effective than liberal levels after cardiac surgery? Findings from the TITRe2 randomised controlled trial
Objective: To assess the incremental cost and cost-effectiveness of a restrictive versus a liberal red blood cell transfusion threshold for after cardiac surgery patients. <br/> Design: A within-trial cost-effectiveness analysis with a three month time horizon, based on a multi-centre superio...
