Posttransfusion non-A, non-B hepatitis after cardiac surgery: a prospective study.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:The aim of this study was to assess potentially relevant clinical characteristics which influence the decision to transfuse red cells in critically ill patients with low haemoglobin concentrations (6.0-10.0 g/dl). MATERIALS AND METHODS:This was a retrospective observational cohort study of pa...
